01 PREPARE / Preparation is key, for best results 24 hours before application exfoliate all dead skin cells, excess old tan and any other random bits off your skin that shouldn't be there. Shave, wax or any hair removal should be done 24 hours before. Shower in warm water and ensure skin is clean and free from deodorant, perfume, makeup, oils and moisturisers.
02 APPLICATION / For best results, use a professional spray tanning machine. Pour 50-100mls of solution into the cup, screw gun on tight. Put barrier cream on dry areas and hands and feet. Spray in a vertical motion approx 20cm from the skin. DRY AS YOU GO. Using the gun to dry section by section will create a more even tan with less streaks. Go light on areas such as hands, elbows, knees and heels. Dry all over until no longer tacky. Wait a few minutes and pop loose clothing on and marinate.
03 RINSE / Stay cool and dry and once you have reached the suggested time (20 minutes -1 hour) It's time to jump in the shower for a thorough rinse in lukewarm water. You will see all the bronzer wash away down the drain, continue rinsing (with water only) until the water runs clear. DON'T PEE - the ammonia in your urine will leave streaks on your legs. Phew. Glad we cleared that up, that would have been awkward. Now you are all rinsed, hop out of the shower and pat yourself dry with a towel (Don't rub). Apply moisturiser to stay hydrated and your tan will continue to develop over the next 6-8 hours. Full development will take place at 24 hours.
04 CARE / Moisturise Moisturise Moisturise - keep your tan hydrated to ensure the life of your tan and it will fade away naturally.
05 REMOVE / Once a week has passed, you are now ready to remove the remainder of your tan and start again. Using IV Fade, apply to any left over tan, leave for 5 to 10 mins then hop in the shower and use IV "Scrub me" mitt to exfoliate away all left over tan residue. Get out of the shower and moisturise head to toe.
06 REPEAT / Now you are back to pastie non glowing fresh AF baby skin, it's time to do it all again and get back to that 10/10.
