GLEAUX Pre CARE

Wear or bring loose, dark clothing—think oversized tees and flowy pants. Tight clothes = no bueno for your fresh spray tan.

Choose Your Glow Style
Your tan, your rules! You can:

  • Go fully nude for no tan lines.

  • Rock our disposable undergarments.

  • Purchase a Brazilian bikini from us if you prefer subtle, chic tan lines.

Plan Your Beauty Timeline Wisely
Schedule your mani-pedis, facials, and preferably your hair appointments before your spray tan. Fresh nail polish and blowouts pair beautifully with a glowing tan!

No Massage Day of Your Glow
Skip the massage on the day of your spray tan. The oils and rubbing can interfere with your flawless finish.

Exfoliate 12-24 hours before your appointment to create the ultimate smooth, glowing canvas. A spray tan loves fresh skin, so ditch the dead stuff with a sugar scrub or exfoliating mitt. (Your glow will thank you!)


Shave or wax 12-24 hours pre-glow. This gives your pores time to close, ensuring an even, streak-free tan. No stray hairs, just spray-ready skin!


On the day of your appointment, skip the soap, lotion, deodorant, and perfume. Your skin should be a blank canvas ready for the ultimate glow transformation. Clean, dry, and au naturel is the vibe.

GLEAUX POST Care

No exfoliating for at least 24 hours after your spray tan. Let your tan settle and develop into the luminous look you love.

Your first rinse is crucial! Follow the timing and advice given by your spray tan artist for optimal results. Use only lukewarm water. No hot showers, soaps, or scrubs during this rinse. Just rinse and gently pat your skin dry.

Keep your skin hydrated daily with a tan-friendly, oil-free moisturizer. The more natural the product, the better! Refrain from alcohol-based products, as they can dry out your skin and fade your glow.

Avoid heavy sweating, swimming, or hot tubs for at least 24 hours post-spray. Chlorine and excessive moisture are glow-stealers.

Skip infrared saunas, hot yoga, and heated Pilates classes for at least 24 hours. Excessive heat and sweat can interfere with your tan’s development and longevity.

Stay away from oils, oil-based products, and bubble baths while your tan is developing—they’re glow killers.

After 24 hours, you can have your first full shower, but don’t go crazy! Use a gentle body wash, avoid scrubbing, and still skip shaving for now to keep your glow intact. Remember to always pat your skin dry after rinses and showers to follow.

Use mild, sulfate-free body washes to keep your skin and tan happy. Harsh soaps can strip your color faster than you can say "glow."

Opt for dark, loose pajamas to avoid any transfer to your sheets. (Though our tans are designed to minimize transfer!)

Choose aluminum-free deodorants. They’re best for preserving your tan and keeping your skin happy.

Glow Longevity Secrets

  • Avoid shaving or waxing too often, as they can fade your tan.

  • Pat dry with a towel instead of rubbing after showers.

  • Reapply a tan extender product every few days for an extra boost of glow.
