Luxury Results Begin with Intentional Care

To ensure a flawless, even, and long-lasting glow, proper skin preparation is essential. Your spray tan is a customized skin treatment experience—please follow the guidelines below for best results.

📌Retinol-based products and other active ingredients can interfere with your results.  Avoid them before your appointment or opt to skip spraying the face altogether.

24–48 Hours Before Your Appointment:

📌Exfoliate thoroughly using an oil-free exfoliant or exfoliating mitt. Pay special attention to dry areas such as elbows, knees, ankles, hands, and feet.

📌Never exfoliate on the day of your tan. Your skin needs time to regenerate its skin cells + amino acids, which are essential for DHA (the active tanning ingredient) to properly develop. 

📌Shave or wax at least 24 hours prior to your appointment to allow the skin to calm and pores to close.

📌No Dove soap or body wash before your session, as they can leave a residue that disrupts your tan’s development.

📌 The Day of Your Appointment:

• Shower only. Arrive with clean, dry skin—free of lotions, oils, deodorant, makeup, perfume, or sunscreen.
• Do not moisturize on the day of your tan. Hydration is part of the luxury experience and will be applied at the appropriate time.
• Wear loose, dark clothing and opt for open-toed shoes when possible.
• Remove all jewelry prior to your appointment.

📌 For an Elevated Result:

• Avoid spa services, manicures, pedicures, or massages the day of your tan, as product residue may interfere with your glow.
• If deodorant must be worn, please inform your artist upon arrival.

📌 A Gentle Reminder:

Your spray tan is designed to enhance your natural beauty. Proper preparation allows us to deliver the radiant, seamless, and timeless results Liquid Sunshine is known for.

📌 You are the Statement. Your Glow is the Accessory.

First 8–24 Hours After Your Appointment:
