The Do's And Don't of Spray Tanning

Sunless Spray Tan – Do’s & Don’ts (MineTan Rapid Products)

DO:

  • Exfoliate thoroughly 24 hours before your appointment — focus on elbows, knees, ankles, and hands.

  • Remove all makeup, deodorant, lotions, and perfumes before tanning.

  • Shave or wax at least 24 hours prior to your tan for even absorption.

  • Bring loose, dark clothing to change into after your tan (avoid tight waistbands or straps).

  • Bring flip-flops or slides — walking barefoot can cause tanning solution to stain your feet.

  • If it’s raining, cover up completely with rain gear, wear closed waterproof shoes (or protect your feet with covers), and use an umbrella to shield your skin from getting wet.

  • Rinse according to the MineTan Rapid Tan guide (usually between 2–6 hours depending on your desired depth of color). That will be discussed at your visit

DON’T:

  • Don’t apply moisturizers, makeup, or deodorant before your appointment.

  • Don’t wear tight-fitting clothes, socks, or bras right after your tan — they can rub off the solution.

  • Don’t shower, sweat, or get wet until your first rinse time.

  • Don’t touch your skin while the tan is developing — palms can transfer the solution.

  • Don’t exfoliate again until you’re ready for your next tan; moisturize daily instead to extend it.

  • Women can go Topless or nude whatever the comfort level and men must wear underwear or shorts.
