1. Exfoliate Your Skin (24 Hours Before)

This is the most important step! Exfoliating removes dead skin cells and creates a smooth surface for the tanning solution to adhere to. Without it, your tan can look patchy and fade unevenly.

• Exfoliate:  use our BEETIT exfoliator to remove dead skin cells, creating a smooth canvas for the tanner to adhere to.
• Focus on areas that tend to be dry, like elbows, knees, ankles, and feet.
• Be gentle! You want to buff away dead skin, not irritate it.

Why it works: A smooth, exfoliated skin surface allows the tanning solution to absorb evenly, resulting in a streak-free and natural-looking tan that lasts much longer.

2. Shave or Wax (24-48 Hours Before)

Any hair removal should be done well in advance of your spray tan appointment. Shaving or waxing too close to your session can leave your pores open, which can lead to a “spotted” look. Give your skin time to calm down and your pores to close completely.

3. Shower & Rinse Off All Products (Right Before Your Appointment)

Take a quick, cool shower before your tan. This will help to remove any residue from lotions, oils, deodorants, or makeup. Do not apply any products to your skin after this shower.

4. Skip the Lotion & Deodorant

On the day of your appointment, do not apply any lotions, oils, or makeup.

By following this simple spray tan prep guide, you’ll be perfectly ready to achieve a beautiful, flawless Beettan glow that will turn heads for days.
