How spray tan works
- The specially made airbrush atomises the Spray into a cooling vapour onto the skin ensuring an even application. One of the active ingredients in the Sun Spray, Dihydroxyacetone (DHA), causes a chemical reaction with the amino acids on the outermost top layer of skin to produce a bronzed tan - much like the sun does but without UVA and UVB damage to the skin. With absolutely no sun exposure at all, the tan usually lasts between 4 - 10 days. The way the tan fades and the length of time it lasts is dependent on how each person naturally loses his or her skin. Regular moisturising is essential to prolong the duration of the tan, especially during hotter months or in dry climates. Booking for a "double application" ensures an even longer lasting and more natural looking tan and offers a cost saving. Scroll down for more information.
Prior to and on the day of your tan
- In the morning of your tanning appointment (or the night before) you should exfoliate your entire body. Exfoliation will remove dead skin that would otherwise flake off and helps to promote even coverage and lengthen the duration of your tan. When you exfoliate, pay particular attention to the lower half of your legs, knees, ankles, top of feet, toes, elbows and knuckles. You may use an exfoliating lotion, face cloth, scrubbing mitt or loofah. Use a pumice stone on feet if necessary.
Shaving or waxing
- It is best to shave or wax at least 12 hours before your tanning appointment. We are unable to offer any waxing treatments on the same day of your tan. Waxing during the life of your tan will remove it - therefore we recommend that you do not wax for at least 7 days after the application.
Cremes and lotions
Do not apply moisturisers or use any roll-on deodorants until after your post-tanning shower (see below), lotions can act as a barrier and prevent the Sun Spray from contacting with the skin. The same applies to your face and the wearing of make-up.
What to wear
Wear loose fitting clothing, preferably a sundress, along with sandals to your tanning appointment. Plan to spend about 30 to 40 minutes at the salon. The actual tanning takes about 15-20 minutes but you will need to allow about 10 minutes for drying time. Wear a dark coloured costume or garment of your preference. The Tanning System solution washes out of most clothing very easily, but tends to stain light nylon materials.
Following the application
St Tropez Tan have eliminated most problems associated with self-tanners, however, a few stubborn challenges remain. Immediately following your tanning application, for at least 5 hours, you should:
Not wash your hands or wear tight clothing.
Not exercise. Perspiring immediately after tanning alters the chemical reaction of the sun spray.
Not swim or immerse yourself in water.
Not apply moisturiser.
Not wear shoes or socks after your tanning session if your feet sweat. The sweat can turn your feet yellow or orange - sandals are a good choice.
Due to the reaction of the active ingredients with the amino acids of the skin, some clients, based on their particular body chemistry, will notice a "starch" smell on their skin shortly after their tanning application. This will disappear with the post-tan shower.
Post-Tan Shower
Wait at least 8 hours after your tanning application before showering or bathing. You need to allow enough time for the reaction to take place - the longer the better. Do not be alarmed if you see colour washing off the first time you shower as this is just the surface colour application. Your skin will continue to tan as the self-tan reaction works on your skin.
Maintenance of you Tan
Apply moisturiser, morning and evening, after your post-tan shower. A well hydrated skin is essential in maintaining a longer life to your tan.
