everything you need to know before your visit
How do I prepare my skin for a blushtan®?
Shower and exfoliate 6-12 hours prior to your appointment to remove any old self-tanners, as well as all dry, dead skin. For best results, use the blushtan® Exfoliating Mitt or a dry brush. If you have super dry skin, make sure to moisturize with a 'sunless safe' product- we recommend blushtan® Hydrating Moisturizer. Shave and take care of any other hair removal at least 12 hours before your appointment. The day of your appointment- For best results, shower and remove all sweat, make-up, perfume, deodorant and oils using a 'sunless safe' product, like our blushtan® Body Polish. Again, if you have very very dry skin you may moisturize the day of your appointment, but ONLY with a 'sunless safe' product like blushtan® Hydrating Moisturizer. If you are unable to obtain blushtan® 'sunless-safe' skincare products prior to your appointment, opt for simple drugstore brands like CeraVe and Cetaphil. However, please always avoid products with acne fighting ingredients, as well as all products from brands like Dove, Aveeno, Vaseline and Olay- these contain ingredients that are bad for your spray tan and will create a barrier on the skin that prevents the solution from setting properly!
What should I expect upong arrival?
A certified blushpro® consultant will begin your appointment with a quick color consultation to determine the perfect solution for your skin tone, based on your personal preference and skin type. A complementary PH balancing treatment is mixed in with every custom color, which will help to properly prepare your skin for the application by destroying hidden body oils and dry skin, and will extend the overall life of your spray tan. Post-tan, you will have the option to be dried and/or powdered to prevent any tacky feeling on the skin.
How long will my spray tan last?
Your custom results will provide gorgeous, glowing results for 5-7 days (potentially longer due to our hydrating ingredients!) as long as your skin stays moisturized and products with harsh chemicals, exfoliants and bleaching ingredients are avoided. To get the most out of your tan, ask about our line of organic and natural products that are specifically designed for sunless tanning. Using these recommended products will not only provide longer lasting results, but also more natural and even fading.
How long does the appointment take?
A total body transformation takes only 15 minutes! You will leave our studio feeling healthy, happy and confident!
