Sunless Tanning
About Spray Tanning
Oh my goodness, I have so much to say as a stockist of the The Tan Lab… but in short, I only use the best products from their professional and retail range.
THE TAN LAB philosophy, ‘Less is more,’ means that we don’t promote the darkest tan. We would rather promote the most natural looking tan for your particular skin type because we believe that one product alone cannot work on all skin types. Therefore THE TAN LAB has created a range in order to work in synergy with one another and most importantly, in harmony with the different skin tones.
Benefits, and why I chose to become a stockist of The TAN Lab:

- Avoid cream, deodorant, perfume, make-up or oil-based products on the day of your tan
- Have/Bring with loose and preferably dark clothing to wear after your tan and bring slip-slops along
- Have/Bring an umbrella if it is raining on the day of your tan
Post-tan Tips:
- Wear loose clothing and slip-slops while your tan develops (avoid wearing a bra, if possible)
- Powder can be applied under arms and behind knees to avoid feeling sticky
- During the 8-12 hour development phase, avoid water, exercise/ gym, sweat and anything that can rub your skin
- If you need to wash your hands, use a wet-wipe
- When swimming, use water resistant SPF to protect your tan
- After showering, bathing or swimming, pat skin dry instead of rubbing
