Preparation
Before Your Appointment
The secret to a flawless, long-lasting tan starts at least 24 hours before you walk in. Follow these three steps and your results will speak for themselves.
Shave
Shave at least 24 hours prior to your appointment. Shaving immediately before can open pores and cause the solution to appear patchy or uneven. Giving your skin time to settle ensures a smooth, even canvas.
Exfoliate
Use a gentle body scrub or exfoliating mitt to remove dead skin cells — paying extra attention to rough areas like elbows, knees, and ankles. This step is the single biggest factor in how evenly your tan develops and how long it lasts.
Moisturize
After exfoliating, apply a lightweight oil-free moisturizer to any dry or rough patches. Hydrated skin absorbs the solution more evenly. Do this the night before — not day-of — so no residue interferes with your tan.
Day of Appointment
Arrive Ready to Glow
On the day of your session, a little preparation goes a long way. Keep your skin completely barrier-free so the solution can do its job.
-
No Barriers on Skin
Arrive with clean product-free skin. Skip the lotion, perfume, deodorant, and makeup. Even lightweight products create a barrier that prevents the solution from bonding evenly — and no one wants a patchy tan.
-
Wear Loose Dark Clothing
Bring loose-fitting clothes to change into after your session. Tight clothing can cause the solution to rub, crease, or transfer before it sets. Dark fabrics are your best friend on spray tan day.
-
Appropriate Undergarments
Wear or bring minimal undergarments for your session — a thong or swimsuit bottom works great. Full coverage during application leads to visible tan lines. Whatever you are comfortable with is what we will work with.
After Care
Protect Your Investment
How you treat your tan in the first 24 hours determines how beautiful and long-lasting it will be. Follow these steps and your glow will thank you.
-
Rinse at the Right Time
Your technician will let you know your development window. When it is time, rinse with warm water — never hot. Hot water opens pores and accelerates fading. Keep it gentle and brief.
-
Hands Only — No Washcloth
When rinsing use only your hands to gently rub the skin. The goal is to remove the surface bronzer without disturbing the developing DHA underneath. A washcloth or loofah will streak and strip your tan before it is set.
-
Moisturize Twice Daily
Apply a hydrating tan-extending moisturizer morning and night. Dry skin is the number one enemy of a lasting spray tan. The more you hydrate the longer and more even your fade will be.
-
Extend Your Glow
Want your tan to last even longer? Reach for a gradual tan lotion on dry areas — it refreshes the color between appointments without streaking.
-
Resume Normal Routine After Day One
All of the above applies to your first day post-tan. After that you can return to your regular hygiene routine — just keep up the moisturizer.
Results
The Glow Speaks for Itself
Real results from real clients. No filter, no fake orange — just rich natural-looking bronze that complements every skin tone.
Why Luxe Glow
The Difference Is in the Details
We take spray tanning seriously. From the formula we use to the way we move through your appointment, every detail is designed to give you a result you are proud to show off.
We Come to You
Our mobile spray tan service brings the studio experience directly to your home. No driving, no waiting, no rushing. Book a session on your schedule in your space.
Expert Eye for Tone
Not all tans are created equal. We assess your natural skin tone, undertones, and desired depth before ever picking up the spray gun — so your result looks like you just got back from vacation, not a costume.
A Comfortable Experience
We know spray tanning can feel vulnerable. Luxe Glow is built on professionalism and a welcoming presence. First-timers and regulars alike leave feeling confident, not awkward.
Our Formulas Will Never Pull Orange
The orange tan era is over. Every solution we use is carefully selected for its ability to develop into a rich warm bronze across all skin tones — never brassy, never artificial. If you have been burned by an orange tan before, this is your sign to try again.
