Top Spray Tanning Tips For The Perfect Glow
Thinking about getting a spray tan ahead of summer? Here are my top tips for the perfect summer glow!
Leave it to the professionals:
It can be tempting to self-tan at home, but not only is this a messy and time-consuming process, it doesn’t have the long-lasting results of a professional tan…and let’s not forget the high risk of a patchy tan! For a smooth, even glow, leave it to the pros, like Christchurch salon Bronze Goddess. They make it effortless, with 15-minute fuss-free appointments that will have you feeling like a true summer goddess.
Shave before you tan:
Have you ever shaved post-tan and wondered why that golden glow dries out and fades within days? When you shave, you remove the outer layer of skin on the legs and effectively exfoliate them. This naturally strips away the surface layers of glow you’ve just had put on – so shave or book your regular wax in at least a day prior to your tanning appointment for the best outcomes.
Use a scrub the day of:
I like to shower and exfoliate before my tanning appointment. Using a body scrub brushes away dead and dry skin cells and ensures your tan will reach all of your beautiful new cells for the most impactful result. Try a coffee scrub to stimulate blood flow and leave your skin silky smooth – you can make one at home by mixing together coffee grounds, brown sugar and coconut oil.
Take a break from the gym:
That’s right, getting a spray tan is the perfect excuse to skip your workout for the day. Sweating causes your tan to run, leaving those streaks we all hate. Wearing loose, breezy clothes post-tan will not only reduce your chances of perspiring, but will also help your tan dry in an even way.
