So you just scheduled your first Airbrush and now you’re not sure what comes next? We got you! Follow this guide to help ensure the best possible outcome! Remember, what you use and do at home will have an impact on your spray tan!
24 - 48 hours prior
•EXFOLIATE- we recommend using an exfoliating glove as most body scrubs are oil based and will leave a residue on the skin
•Shave 24 hours prior to airbrush appointment. If waxing, have it done 72 hours before
•Be sure to have your mani/pedi, eyebrows, eyelashes, massage and any other spa treatments done prior to airbrush appointment. We should be your last stop
•HYDRATE HYDRATE HYDRATE! Can’t stress this enough! The more hydrated your skin is the better, plan to increase your water intake 7 days prior to your appointment
•Avoid bar soaps or cream-based body washes as they can leave a residue making it difficult for the spray to penetrate through
