· Avoid water until it's time for your first rinse. This includes washing your hands, sweating excessively, and yes—even crying! Be extra careful in the bathroom; splashes happen.
· At the recommended rinse time discussed during your appointment, rinse with warm water only and use your hands only—no soap, loofahs, or washcloths. Continue rinsing until the water runs clear.
· Moisturize daily. Hydrated skin helps extend the life of your tan and promotes an even fade.
· Avoid body oils and oily products, as they can cause your tan to break down unevenly and become patchy.
· Avoid spraying perfume directly onto your skin.
· Retinols, AHA/BHA acids, and other chemical exfoliants can cause premature fading, so avoid them on tanned areas.
