🚨 Why I always recommend NO leggings after your spray tan! 🚨
This photo is the perfect example of why loose, dark clothing is so important during your developing time.
My client originally arrived wearing leggings. We cut them into shorts after applying her tan, but within seconds she pulled them up slightly higher. The result? Just look at the clear line across her thighs 👀
That lighter section shows where the leggings absorbed and disrupted the guide colour almost immediately. This happened after only a couple of seconds of contact!
Remember, your spray tan needs time to develop evenly. Tight clothing such as leggings, gym wear, skinny jeans, and shapewear can:
✨ Absorb the guide colour
✨ Create pressure marks and tan lines
✨ Cause patchiness
✨ Leave your legs lighter than the rest of your body
✨ Affect your final result, especially if you’re planning to wear a dress or shorts the next day
My advice? ✔️
After your spray tan, wear:
🤎 Loose dark pyjamas
🤎 Loose joggers
🤎 Anything that won’t rub or cling to the skin
The less friction and pressure on your skin, the more even and flawless your tan will develop.
This photo was taken immediately after application and shows just how quickly tight clothing can affect your tan. Trust the process and dress loose for the best results! ✨
