Yes, exfoliate first and then apply the tan. Wait 30 minutes before dressing.Help needed quickly. I'm having a spray tan this morning. Should I exfoliate before?
It probably is a good idea to get rid of old and dead skin. Why not?

Yes but do not moisturise

Tips On Tanning and Directions For Tanning Effectively





Tanning is a natural response to the skin鈥檚 exposure to ultra-violet light that we easily get from sunlight. These ultraviolet rays are essential for our skin. However, excessive exposure can cause wrinkles and scars on the skin. With the relaxing and warm effect, tanning can also help in reducing stress, and help soothe muscular aches and pains.





It doesn鈥檛 matter whether you prefer natural sun tanning or indoor tanning with artificial ultraviolet rays. Following some easy directions and simple tips, you can have a wonderful experience of tanning.





Here are some general tips on sun tanning:


鈥?Start with 5-10 minutes sessions, twice a day, and gradually increase the time.


鈥?Avoid tanning when the sun is at its maximum strength 鈥?between 11 am to 2:30 pm.


鈥?Apply sunscreen on your skin before you start tanning. Do not apply lotion or cream after burning a bit.





Choose your soap carefully





Clean your skin completely before tanning and for that select your soap carefully. Chemical soaps like bars or fragrant soaps can make you clean but also make your skin dry since using these chemical soaps dehydrates your skin. Use a good, gentle but effective soap like liquid soap, for it is less harsh on your skin but clean your skin effectively.





Exfoliate before you tan





To get the best results of tan, exfoliate prior to exposure. Try to remove as many dead skin cells as possible before tanning. But don鈥檛 forget to moisturize after exfoliate.





Shave prior to exposure





If you require shaving, do it before you tan because shaving acts will leave your skin fresh and smooth. The effect of tan will be best if you shave skin prior. It is also recommended that you do the shaving a few hours before tanning so that the skin gets a chance to recover.





Use sunscreen lotion and moisturizer





Using sunscreen lotion is important for tanning, as it protects your skin from direct effect of ultraviolet ray. A good moisturizer is also required for your skin for a tan. However, you have to use a high-quality sunscreen lotion and moisturizer to prevent skin damage. The lotion should also be free of fragrances and be hypoallergenically tested to ensure that you have minimum risk of being allergic to it.





Lotions, loaded with moisturizing agents can also keep your skin soft and hydrated. Many of the lotions contain bronzers that help to darken your tan.





Have a shower after tanning





Having a bath or shower after tanning is the best way to remove oils and lotions from your skin. It also helps in removing any perspiration or salts that are usually deposited on your skin. However, the shower should not be too hot and make sure you apply a good moisturizer after toweling dry.





The cardinal rule of tanning is never burn yourself. Sunburn is the enemy associated with permanent skin damage. So never burn yourself intentionally. There is a false assumption that sunburn will fade eventually into tans. But this is not correct. Sunburn is the damage on your tanned skin.





Do not tan everyday. Allow a minimum of 24 hours to pass before tanning again 鈥?indoors or outdoors. This will repair minor damage of your skin and to create melanin and a tan.
You shouldn't get one at all, if it was harmless, why would the pigmentation of the chemicals that create the sun tan not simply wash away. It tiny portions of poison that embed it into the skin and keep it in place.
Yes the day before so there are no scratches or nicks.
I would think so, seems logical to do that first.
Hello!


You got the number for the beautician? Call her and ask!!!!


If you havent got time get into a warm shower and wet your body, turn the shower off (but stay in the bath room so the steam keeps your skin soft) and make a mixture of salt and olive oil (or use a shop bought exfoliator) and use every where including armpits, backs of your legs tops of your thighs where your bikini lne is (where your knickers lay!!!) etc


If you have dry skin on your elbows and knees use a pumice stone or massage very well with exfoliator. Use a loofah brush to get to every little bit of your back and have a good scrub on your bum cheeks.


Then shower off and only use the tiniest amount of shower gel wash. Dont moisterurise (some ask you to, some dont--I dont know what the policy is at your salon). Wear dark clothing and tie your hair up!


Tell the beautician exactly what you exfoliated with and when. Take a tub of moisteriser with you so if she says that you should have moisterurised then you can nip to the toilets quick and do it yourself (its much cheaper then her reeling you in for her to do and having to pay lots more).


Also make sure you have a good close shave of all your bits! Try to do this the day before. If you wax make sure you also do it two or three days before the tanning session. Shaving, waxing and and hair removing can make your skin sensitive, open your pores and make you sensitive to the tan, so make sure you do these at least a day before!


Anyway I hope that helps!!


Happy tanning!
