How to Make Your Spray Tan Last 7-10 Days ✧ Pro Tips from The Glow Haven
One of the most common questions I get is: “How do I make my spray tan last longer?” The truth is, a flawless tan doesn’t stop when I pack up my tent. it’s all about how you care for your glow afterward.
At The Glow Haven, I bring custom, no-orange tans to clients across Port St. Lucie and the Treasure Coast. And with the right prep + aftercare, your tan can last 7–10 days while fading evenly and beautifully. Here’s how:
✧ 5 Habits That Extend Your Tan
1. Moisturize Daily with a Tan-Safe Lotion
Choose a fragrance-free, oil-free lotion to lock in hydration. Dry skin = faster fading.
2. Take Cool or Lukewarm Showers
Hot water dries out your skin and strips color. Keep it gentle and quick.
3. Pat Dry After Showers
Skip rubbing with a towel. patting dry keeps your tan intact.
4. Avoid Chlorine & Saunas
Pools, hot tubs, and saunas can cause patchy fading. Save them for after your tan has worn off.
5. Gentle Exfoliation at the End of Your Tan
When your glow starts to fade, exfoliate lightly to remove old color before booking your refresh.
✧ Products to Avoid
Not all products play nicely with spray tans. Skip:
Heavy body oils
Harsh scrubs or loofahs
Bar soaps like Dove (they strip color and cause uneven fading)
Instead, stick to Glow Haven-approved aftercare: mild, hydrating cleansers + tan-safe moisturizers.
