When should I get my spray tan for an event?

This depends on the timing of your event. Our tans take a full 24 hours to fully develop, so we usually recommend booking your appointment two days beforehand. However, if your event is in the evening, getting your tan the day or night before also works well.

Preparation is essential! Make sure to shave and exfoliate at least 24 hours before your appointment. Doing this too close to your session—especially on the day of—can cause irritation or leave your pores open, which may affect how evenly the tan develops.

Open Wounds or Skin Irritations: Tanning solution should never be applied to broken skin or wounds, as it can cause stinging, irritation, or infection. Do not book in for a spray tan if you have any open wounds or skin conditions.

Allergic Reactions: Rare, but those with sensitivities to DHA or other ingredients should not get a spray tan.

Can I get a spray tan when pregnant?

You’ll be putting on suncream every day anyway, which helps keep your skin moisturised, so the tan fades slowly and naturally. It won’t come off in the pool or sea either. You'll get a good 5 to 7 days out of your spray tan! Some get even longer!

The room is reserved exclusively for you, so simply head in at your chosen time. There’s no need to check in with staff or enter a code. It’s all set up for a smooth, private experience.

What is blending/barrier cream for?

Barrier cream is essential for protecting dry areas like hands, feet, and especially heels from over-absorbing tanning solution. These spots tend to grab more color and can end up looking patchy or too dark. Applying barrier cream is a must-do step for everyone—don’t skip it! It helps ensure a more even, flawless tan.
