A sugar-based ingredient (DHA) reacts with the top layer of your skin to create a natural tan over 8–24 hours. The instant color is a temporary guide bronzer that rinses off at your first shower.
-
24 hours before: Exfoliate and complete any shaving/waxing.
Day of: Quick rinse is fine—come with clean, dry skin (no heavy lotions, oil, minimal deodorant. If you do have really dry skin I do recommend a thin layer of lotion!
Skin care actives: Skip retinol, AHAs/BHAs, benzoyl peroxide the day of your tan to prevent uneven fade.
Clothes: Wear darker, not-too-tight scrubs or office clothing if possible (not a deal breaker). Bronzer won’t stain; any transfer washes out.
Work + rinse timing: I can customize your formula for a 1–6 hr rapid or 8–10 hr overnight rinse—tell me what fits your shift.
Health: Wait or cover if you have open cuts, rashes, or healing incisions.
After your first rinse: Pat dry and moisturize daily to extend wear (typically 7–14 days).

You’ll likely be in office clothing or scrubs—that’s perfect. Aim for a darker shade and not super-tight if possible (not a deal breaker). The bronzer is cosmetic and won’t stain clothing; any light transfer before your first rinse washes out. I finish with drying powder so you feel clean and dry.
-
Plan for 20 minutes total: ~10 minutes to spray, a few minutes to dry, and go over additional details.
-
I customize the formula to your schedule—from rapid 1–6 hour rinses to classic 8–10 hour overnights. First rinse is lukewarm water only; full color peaks at 24 hours.
-
Only if you want it to be. I carry clear and light bronzer options for a professional, work-friendly look. Prefer more pop? I also have medium and deep bronzers.
-
Absolutely, not! Spray tan formulations have come a long way and I use the best of best products. I match shade to your skin tone/undertone, balance pH, and set the right rinse time for a believable glow.
-
Yes. We can tan your body now and do arms/face at the end of your shift, or book a quick touch-up the next evening (Wednesday) at my Sandy studio.
-
You can also book a next-day, Wednesday-evening slot at my Sandy location with the same customized shade and rinse plan. :)
