Let’s get real for a second – nothing ruins a gorgeous tan faster than dry, flaky skin 😬. You could be building a sun-kissed glow in a solarium or stepping into a fully automated VersaSpa PRO Spray Tan booth, but if your skin isn’t prepped, your glow is going to fade faster than your last TikTok obsession. That’s why exfoliation is your secret weapon to enhance your tan – whether you’re all about that controlled UV Tan or you love the instant magic of Sunless Tan. 🌞💖
Why Exfoliation is Non-Negotiable
Think of exfoliation like sweeping the floor before you paint a wall 🎨. If you skip it, your tan won’t go on smoothly, and might end up with uneven patches. Exfoliating removes dead skin cells, leaving a fresh, even surface for your tan to cling to. And trust us, your skin will drink in that color like a sponge.
- For Controlled UV Tanning: Exfoliating before your session helps your tan develop evenly and last longer. Bonus: you reduce the risk of streaks or splotches.
- For VersaSpa PRO Spray Tan: Spray Tans are all about a smooth canvas. Skip exfoliation, and you might end up with a patchy glow that peels off before you even make it to brunch.
How Often Should You Exfoliate?
We get it – life is busy, and you don’t want to be scrubbing yourself down every day 🛁. But here’s the tea:
✔️ 2–3 days before tanning – Do a deep exfoliation to prep your skin using a gentle body scrub.
✔️ The day of tanning – Avoid harsh scrubbing. A light rinse or gentle brush is enough to keep your skin ready.
✔️ After tanning:
- For UV Tanning: You can lightly exfoliate every few days before your next session, just make sure your skin isn’t red or irritated from the previous tan. This helps maintain an even glow and prevents patchiness.
- For Spray Tans: Avoid exfoliating after your session. Only exfoliate when you’re ready to rinse off the color or before your next session if you want to start fresh and ensure an even application.

Extra Tips to Enhance Your Tan
Moisturize, moisturize, moisturize 💧
After exfoliating, your skin is thirsty. Hydrate with a non-oily moisturizer to lock in your tan and prevent fading.
Avoid harsh soaps 🧼
Some soaps strip color fast. Stick to gentle, hydrating body washes to make your tan last.
Pat dry, don’t rub 🖐️
After showering, gently pat your skin instead of rubbing – it preserves your hard-earned glow.
Timing is everything ⏰
For Spray Tans, wait at least 6-8 hours before showering.
