We highly recommend using products that are specially formulated to be compatible with your spray tan! These products are developed intentionally to prep your skin before your tan, maintain your tan after your appointment and even extend and refresh a fading tan. We carry Nuda and Sjolie product options in the salon and are happy to give you personalized recommendations based on your tanning needs!

If you choose to use commercially available products please stick to the following products for your cleansers, moisturizers and sunscreens:

Please avoid all of the following prior to and especially after your spray tan:

  • Avoid Dove, Olay, Nivea, Suave, Irish Spring, and Bath and Body Works brand Cleansers, Moisturizers and Deodorants

  • Avoid Tree Hut Scrubs-no oil based scrubs for pre-tan exfoliation-just use an exfoliation mitt if you don’t have spray tan safe exfoliators.

  • Avoid Razors with moisture strips

  • Avoid all Spray Sunscreens

  • Retinol and acne treatments will cause faster fading of tan where applied- there are tan refreshing options like tan water mists to counteract this- please ask for product recommendations in the salon.
