Mastering the Art of Rinsing Off Your Spray Tan: A Step-by-Step Guide
So, you've just had a fabulous spray tan session and now you're looking to ensure that your bronzed glow stays flawless for as long as possible. Correctly rinsing off your spray tan is a crucial step in the process that can make all the difference in how long your tan lasts and how even it looks. Follow these simple steps to master the art of rinsing off your spray tan like a pro:
Step 1: Timing is Key
Once you've had your spray tan applied, it's essential to wait for the recommended development time before rinsing it off. This typically ranges from 6 to 12 hours, depending on the type of solution used. Make sure to follow the specific instructions provided by your spray tan technician or the product manufacturer to achieve the best results.
Step 2: Opt for a Lukewarm Shower
When it's time to rinse off your spray tan, opt for a lukewarm shower instead of a hot one. Hot water can strip away your tan more quickly as well as dry out your skin, leading to a shorter lifespan. Lukewarm water is gentle on your skin and helps to ensure that your tan stays intact.
Step 3: Use a Gentle Cleanser
Remember to choose a gentle, sulfate-free cleanser to wash your body. Harsh soaps can be abrasive and may cause your tan to fade unevenly. Be gentle when washing your skin to prolong the life of your tan. It's recommended to use your body wash on your armpits and private areas if desired, and use NG's polish for the rest of the body.
Step 4: Pat, Don't Rub
After washing, pat your skin dry with a soft towel instead of rubbing it. Rubbing can cause your tan to fade prematurely or become patchy. By patting your skin dry, you'll help to preserve your tan for longer.
Step 5: Moisturize, Moisturize, Moisturize
Hydrated skin is essential for maintaining a beautiful spray tan. After rinsing off your tan, make sure to moisturize your skin thoroughly. Opt for a hydrating lotion like NG'g Hydrate or our Glow spray tanning safe oil to keep your skin nourished and your tan looking fresh.
Step 6: Start using Polish
