Getting a professional-looking spray tan at home is easier than you might think. With the right equipment, preparation, and application techniques, you can achieve a beautiful, natural-looking tan without ever leaving your house. At Pretty Oui, we believe that everyone deserves a gorgeous, sun-kissed glow, so we've put together this guide on how to spray tan at home.
- Equipment
To start, you'll need the right equipment. You can use a spray tanning machine or an aerosol can, but whichever option you choose, make sure you have a good-quality tanning solution. At Pretty Oui, we offer a range of spray tan solutions that are safe, natural-looking, and long-lasting.
- Preparation
Preparing your skin for a spray tan is just as important as the application process. Exfoliate your skin beforehand to ensure that the tanning solution goes on evenly. Make sure to also shave or wax at least 24 hours before your tanning session. Avoid applying moisturizer or oil-based products, as they can interfere with the tanning solution's absorption.
- Application
When it comes to applying the tanning solution, start with a light coat and gradually build up to your desired color. Hold the nozzle about six inches away from your skin and apply the solution in a sweeping motion, making sure to cover all areas evenly. Pay close attention to the elbows, knees, and ankles, as these areas tend to absorb more solution.
- Aftercare
After your spray tan, it's important to take care of your skin to make the tan last as long as possible. Avoid showering or sweating for at least 8 hours after your tanning session. Once you do shower, use a gentle, sulfate-free soap and avoid scrubbing or rubbing your skin. Moisturize regularly to keep your skin hydrated, which can also help prolong the life of your tan.
At Pretty Oui, we offer spray tan solutions that are safe, easy to use, and provide long-lasting, natural-looking results. Follow these tips, and you'll be on your way to achieving a gorgeous, sun-kissed glow right in the comfort of your own home.
