Top 5 Spray Tan Prep & Aftercare Tips ✧ PSL Glow Edition
The secret to a flawless, long-lasting spray tan isn’t just in the solution—it’s in the prep and aftercare. At The Glow Haven, I bring luxury mobile tans to you across Port St. Lucie and the Treasure Coast, but to keep your glow flawless, you’ll want to follow a few simple steps before and after your appointment.
Here are my top 5 prep + aftercare tips to make your tan last 7–10 days ✧
✧ Tip 1: Exfoliate 24 Hours Before
Think of your skin as the canvas for your glow. A smooth, freshly exfoliated surface ensures your tan applies evenly and lasts longer. Use a gentle, oil-free scrub or exfoliating mitt the day before your appointment.
✧ Tip 2: Skip Lotions, Oils & Makeup the Day Of
On tan day, avoid heavy lotions, oils, perfumes, or deodorant. they can block the spray solution and cause uneven results. Come with clean, dry skin. If you’re shaving, do it the night before to prevent irritation.
✧ Tip 3: Wear Loose, Dark Clothing to Your Appointment
I bring the tent, pro filters, and spray setup right to you ✧ all you need to do is slip into loose, dark clothing after your appointment. This keeps your tan safe while it develops. Pro tip: pack a maxi dress or loose joggers for comfort.
✧ Tip 4: Choose the Right Rinse Window
Rapid Glow: Rinse in 2–6 hours for same-day events.
Overnight Glow: Rinse in 8–12 hours (sleep-friendly).
Incognito Glow: Clear formula= Less bronzer transfer, bride-approved.
I’ll guide you on the best rinse time based on your skin tone and schedule.
✧ Tip 5: Hydrate & Protect Your Glow
Once your tan has developed, keep it glowing strong with these aftercare steps:
Moisturize daily with a tan-safe lotion.
Take lukewarm showers…skip super hot water.
Pat your skin dry after bathing (no rubbing).
Avoid chlorine, saunas, or heavy exfoliants until you’re ready for a refresh.
