Do not wash your hands or get them wet for at least 4 hours after application (or until you rinse off your rapid tanning solution) .
If you need to "touch" water or use the sink for anything, use rubber gloves.
When its time to rinse off your tan, please do so with water. Lather up the next time you step in the shower/bath.
You will see color washing off. Don’t be alarmed as that is only the cosmetic bronzer from the application and your developed tan is not washing off.
This seem obvious but please avoid the rain until after you shower. Water can ruin or hinder the development of a sunless tan so make sure you have an umbrella and watch for puddles if you need to go out during rainy weather.
Do not let pets lick your sunless tan.
Bath/Shower
* Wait at least 24 hours to shave as shaving can cause fading. Try to shave only as needed & use a sharp new razor & hair conditioner instead of shaving cream.
Shave / Wax / Exfoliate the day before you tan
* Please refrain from bar soaps (especially Dove) and moisturize a minimum of 2x a day and drink a lot of water.
* Soaps and many-body lotions contain SLS and drying alcohols that will strip and fade the tan. Using cheap drugstore products can cause blotching and bad fading.
* Avoid any waxing, baby oil, mineral oil or massage oil. Using any anti aging or acne products will cause the tan to fade.
* Do not do any spa treatments for a few days after your tan (pedicures, waxing, massages) as these treatments can fade or remove the tan.
Be sure to get your nails done the day before your tan.
Clothing Considerations
Wear loose fitting dark clothing after application. Avoid socks & boots until the tan fully develops (I recommend flip flops or sandals with an open toe) it washes off most fabrics but can temporally stain some clothes.
Do not wear wool, silk or nylon immediately after as it can stain those materials.
Avoid wearing anything red as that color can react with the tan and turn the tan green!
