Pre Tan Preparation

Achieving an even, long-lasting tan starts with proper skin preparation. Consistent pre-session care supports controlled melanin stimulation, resulting in more predictable and uniform colour development.

Hydration is key.
Well-hydrated skin maintains optimal barrier function, allowing your tan to develop evenly and last longer. Professional tanning lotions are specially formulated to enhance hydration and improve tanning performance.

Exfoliation is essential.
Removing dead skin cells creates a smoother skin surface, helping to prevent patchy colour and uneven fading.

Use the right tanning lotion.
Tanning lotions are your best friend when it comes to achieving optimal results. They are designed to support skin health while maximising colour development. For best results, speak to a member of our team to find the most suitable lotion for your skin type.

Start with clean, prepared skin.
Remove makeup, deodorant, jewellery, and skincare products before your session to avoid interference with tanning results.

Small preparation steps can make a significant difference. Well-prepped skin tans more evenly and maintains colour for longer.
