The Professional Spray Tan Aftercare Routine

Follow this after-tan skin care routine for longer-lasting, more evenly fading color

01First Shower — Rinse GentlyWait the recommended development time (6–8 hours for most Sjolie solutions), then rinse with lukewarm water. Use only Sjolie Shower Gel — sulfate-free and pH-balanced to preserve your new color. Avoid scrubbing, and pat dry with a soft towel.
02Moisturize Daily — Lock In ColorApply Body Renew Moisturizer morning and night. Hydrated skin holds DHA color significantly longer because it prevents the premature flaking of dead skin cells where your tan lives. Focus on areas that dry fastest — shins, forearms, and hands.
03Extend Between AppointmentsStarting around day 3–4, switch to Tan Extend Lotion as your daily moisturizer. Its 2% DHA gently refreshes fading color, smoothing out any uneven patches and adding 2–3 extra days of natural-looking glow without a full reapplication.
04Protect From UV — Preserve Your TanApply Mineral Defense Sunscreen before any sun exposure. UV rays break down DHA faster, causing premature fading. Sjolie's mineral formula protects against UV damage while preserving your spray tan color — reef-safe and water resistant for 80 minutes.

Why Spray Tan Aftercare Changes Everything

The right aftercare routine is the difference between a 4-day tan and a 10-day tan

Sulfates Strip Color FastRegular body wash contains sulfates that aggressively break down DHA molecules, causing your spray tan to fade unevenly and disappear days earlier. Sjolie Shower Gel is pH-balanced and sulfate-free — it cleanses effectively without touching your tan.
Dry Skin Flakes Color AwayYour spray tan lives in the outermost layer of skin cells. When skin dries out, those cells flake off prematurely — taking your tan with them in uneven patches. Daily moisturizing with Body Renew keeps cells intact and your tan fading gradually, not in chunks.
UV Accelerates FadingUltraviolet light breaks down DHA on contact. Without sun protection, even brief outdoor exposure can noticeably lighten your spray tan. Mineral Defense Sunscreen creates a physical barrier between UV rays and your sunless color, extending your tan's life significantly.

Spray Tan Aftercare Tips — What to Do & What to Avoid

Share these aftercare guidelines with your clients for the longest-lasting spray tan results

Do ThisMoisturize twice daily with Body Renew. Use sulfate-free Shower Gel for every wash. Pat dry — never rub. Wear loose clothing for the first shower. Apply Tan Extend Lotion starting day 3. Use mineral sunscreen before sun exposure. Drink plenty of water to keep skin hydrated from the inside.
Avoid ThisDo not use regular soap, body wash with sulfates, or bar soap. Avoid chlorine pools, hot tubs, and long baths. Skip oil-based products that dissolve DHA. Do not exfoliate until you're ready to remove your tan. Avoid tight clothing that rubs. Do not shave for at least 24 hours after your spray tan.

Frequently Asked Questions About Spray Tan Aftercare

Wait the recommended development time before your first shower (6–8 hours for most Sjolie solutions). Rinse with lukewarm water using a sulfate-free body wash like Sjolie Shower Gel. Pat dry gently. Moisturize twice daily with Body Renew Moisturizer, and use Tan Extend Lotion starting around day 3–4 to refresh fading color. Avoid chlorine, excessive sweating, and harsh soaps.

Wait 6–8 hours after your spray tan before your first shower — or follow the specific development time recommended by your spray tan artist. For Sjolie Rapid solutions, the wait time may be shorter (2–4 hours). When you do shower, use lukewarm water and a sulfate-free cleanser. The cosmetic bronzer will rinse off, but the DHA color underneath continues developing for 12–24 hours.

Sulfates are aggressive cleansing agents found in most regular body washes and bar soaps. They strip DHA molecules from the skin much faster than necessary, causing your spray tan to fade unevenly and disappear days earlier. Sulfate-free formulas like Sjolie Shower Gel cleanse effectively while preserving the DHA bonds that create your tan color.

Moisturize twice daily with a tan-safe moisturizer like Body Renew. Use only sulfate-free body wash. Avoid chlorine, long baths, and excessive sweating. Apply Tan Extend Lotion starting day 3–4 to refresh fading areas. Use mineral sunscreen before sun exposure. Drink water to keep skin hydrated from the inside. With proper spray tan aftercare, a Sjolie tan can last 7–10 days.

Avoid lotions with mineral oil, petroleum, or heavy oils — these can dissolve DHA and create uneven fading. Sjolie Body Renew Moisturizer is specifically formulated to hydrate skin while preserving spray tan color. Its peptide-rich formula actually helps skin cells stay intact longer, extending your tan's life.

Tan Extend Lotion is a gradual self-tanning moisturizer with 2% DHA. Applied daily as your regular moisturizer starting around day 3–4 after your spray tan, it adds subtle color that fills in fading areas and extends your overall tan by 2–3 days. It also contains niacinamide and jojoba oil for deep hydration.

Regular chemical sunscreens can break down DHA and cause uneven fading. Sjolie Mineral Defense Sunscreen uses physical zinc oxide to create a barrier on top of your skin — blocking UV rays without interfering with your tan color underneath. It actually helps preserve your spray tan by preventing UV-induced DHA breakdown.

Avoid swimming for at least 24 hours after your spray tan. Chlorine in pools accelerates DHA breakdown and can cause uneven fading. Saltwater is slightly less damaging but still shortens tan life. When you do swim, apply Mineral Defense Sunscreen beforehand and moisturize immediately after to minimize color loss.

Do not exfoliate until you are ready to remove your spray tan — typically around day 7–10. Exfoliating too early strips the DHA-treated skin cells and causes rapid, uneven fading. When you're ready, use Sjolie Sugar Scrub to gently remove remaining color and prepare fresh skin for your next spray tan appointment.

Start with the essentials: Shower Gel, Body Renew Moisturizer, and Tan Extend Lotion — these are the three products clients need for proper aftercare. Sugar Scrub is a strong add-on for pre-tan prep. The Glow on the Go Travel Set makes a great introductory retail item. Sjolie's Retail Bundle provides 15 pieces (3 of each core product) to stock your retail display instantly.
