1 Exfoliate! Take a shower and use an exfoliating scrub. I use Body Buffer Exfoliator by California Tan.
2. I prefer a spray tan booth. I have gone to Ultra Tan (only located in North & South Carolina) for the last 5 years. I always go with the "Dark" mist, but recommend starting with a "Light" to get a good feel for the color with your skin tone
3. Right before stepping into the booth, I use Color Maximizer by California Tan.
Protein infused to balance skin functionality and provide longer lasting results
Maximizes both sunless and UV sessions
Contains unique combination of Ginseng and Gynostemma known to increase skin respiration nourish and protect
4. Use hand sanitizer on your hands and feet right after spraying to break up any potential clumping of color.
5. Throw on sweats and a t-shirt and bum it out for at least 5 hours, (I usually sleep in mine).
6. My favorite post spray products include:

How often do you shower? And how often do you get your spray tan touched up?
