How to Prepare To get the best results from your goGLOW experience, it's important to prop

Before your Glow

Ready to glow up? To ensure a flawless tan, it's important to prep your skin beforehand. Trust us, no one wants streaky legs or an irritated tanty!

  • Hair Removal
    Shave or wax at least 24 hours before your appointment to prevent irritation and ensure a smooth, even tan. If you must shave or wax on the day of your appointment, rinse with cold water afterward to close your pores and avoid a spotty tan.
  • Hydrate Your Skin (But Not Too Much!)
    Keep your skin hydrated in the days leading up to your appointment to ensure an even tan. However, do not moisturise on the day of your tan as this can create a barrier and lead to uneven absorption. Wait until after your initial rinse to resume moisturising.
  • Exfoliate for a Smooth Canvas
    Exfoliate 24–48 hours before your appointment to remove dead skin cells. This will help your tan apply evenly and last longer. If you are a weekly spray tanner, please ensure you exfoliate your skin more than once. Spraying new tan over old tan is not the vibe we are going for. ​ If your skin is peeling, wait until it has fully healed before booking your tan, as peeling skin absorbs tan unevenly and fades in patches. For best results: Soak in a warm bath for 10 minutes to soften your skin. Use a soft mitt or loofah to gently exfoliate. Avoid harsh chemical exfoliants or alcohol-based products, which can dry out your skin. Clean Skin, Flawless Tan Arrive at your appointment with clean, product-free skin. Avoid applying: Moisturiser Deodorant Makeup Perfume These products can interfere with your tan, leading to uneven patches or discoloration.
  • Avoid Washing Your Hair Before Your Tan
    Hair products can leave residue on your skin, which can affect how your tan develops. It’s best to wash your hair after your tan.
  • Timing Your Tan
    For best results, schedule your spray tan 2–3 days before your event. This allows the tan to fully develop and ensures any bronzer naturally fades for a flawless finish.
