St. Tropez Tan

Will I go orange?
NO. St tropez tan is designed to go a gorgeous sun kissed colour. St Tropez spray tan will work with your individual skin tone to give you a natural looking tan. The DHA chemical in the tan will create a chemical reaction on the surface of the skin and it will work with your amino acids to tan you naturally, so there’s no need to worry about orange tans!

Will it go streaky?
No, if you follow our pre-treatment advice, it will be completely even and streak free! The tan is applied manually with a mitt by one of our therapists, and quick sweeping motions are used to ensure you get a full even coverage. Our manual mitt application is just as effective as a spray machine, giving the same end result, and it actually allows the therapist to be more thorough in those hard to reach areas. The initial tan application provides you with a guide colour so our therapists can see exactly where it is being applied. When you wash it off 8 hours later you will be left with the perfect colour suited to you.

Is there different colours to choose from?
Yes, we have the Classic, Dark and express tan.
The Classic gives you that gorgeous golden glow every time.
The Dark is for those who are used to tanning regularly and love to make an impact, its darker but not orangey toned at all just a deeper looking tan. The express is for those who are short on time, you can leave it on between 1-3 hours depending on how deep you want it. It doesn’t go really dark but it’s great for a night out/wedding.

How long will my tan last?
After application, you will normally sleep with your tan on and/or wash it off 8 hours later, and the following day you will get 3-4 days where it looks perfect, after that it will start to fade. If you follow your aftercare correctly you will ensure you get the most out of your tan and the best results. It will fully fade after about a week.

Do not to apply any type of perfume, deodorant or aromatherapy oils on the day of your treatment as these may reduce the results.

• Waxing or shaving should be completed at least 24 hours prior to the treatment to reduce sensitivity.
• The evening before or morning of your treatment, exfoliate your entire body. Pay special attention to dry areas of your body such as hands, elbows, knees and feet.
• Wear dark, loose fitting clothing as not to disturb the tan when getting dressed.

Your tan will begin to develop immediately after your treatment.
Do not shower or bathe for a minimum of 4 hours after your treatment. The ideal development time is 8 hours.

• During the development time, do not participate any activity which may cause perspiration.
• It is fine to leave the guide colour on overnight and wash in the morning.

Some guide colour may transfer to bed linen. This will wash out of cotton but not so easily from man-made fibres or wool.

• With the correct aftercare your tan can last longer, apply body moisturiser daily to hydrate your skin and maintain your tan for longer.
• Exfoliate your skin every 3 days to ensure your tan fades evenly.
• Do not rub, but pat your skin dry after showering or bathing.
• Chlorine can make your tan fade faster.
