Spray Tan Tips For Every Season

At Bronzier, we’re rooted in the belief that spray tanning knows no season. Our cutting-edge, proprietary formulas are crafted to suit skin of all types regardless of the time of year.

While each season brings its own set of challenges and opportunities for your skincare routine, adapting to these changes are the key to maintaining a sunless tan. Our team of sunless experts have developed a range of seasonal strategies to ensure your spray tan remains a flawless canvas, seamlessly adapting to the changing weather.

Keep in mind, these thoughtfully designed tips go beyond just achieving your ideal color — they aim to elevate your entire seasonal skincare regimen.


Spring: Prep For The Warm Weather

Spring is a time of renewal, and it’s the perfect season to start preparing your skin for the warmer months ahead.

1. Exfoliate Regularly:

  • Why: Shedding dry, dead skin is crucial for an even tan.

  • How: Use a gentle exfoliating method a few days before your spray tan appointment.

2. Moisturize:

  • Why: Hydrated skin absorbs tanning solution more evenly for optimal color

  • How: Focus on moisturizing daily leading up to your sunless session, especially on areas prone to dryness like elbows, hands, knees, and feet.

3. Choose A Lighter Shade:

  • Why: A subtle glow is perfect for transitional weather.

  • How: Opt for a lighter shade as you emerge from winter that compliments the new season.


Summer: Keep Cool And Glowing

Summer is the season for beach outings, pool parties, and outdoor adventures. Here’s how to keep your tan looking fresh:

1. Stay Hydrated:

  • Why: Hydrated skin retains a spray tan longer.

  • How: Hydrate from the inside out and drink plenty of water. Be sure to use a hydrating body lotion that is sunless friendly.

2. Avoid Chlorine:

  • Why: Chlorine can strip away your tan.

  • How: Rinse off immediately after swimming, pat dry, and apply a tan extender lotion after beach/pool days to elongate the life of your spray tan.

3. Use Sunscreen:

  • Why: Protecting your skin from UV rays is essential, even with a spray tan.

  • How: Opt for a broad-spectrum, mineral-based sunscreen and reapply regularly.


Fall: Transitioning Smoothly

As the leaves change color, so should your tanning routine. Fall is a great time to maintain a warm glow as you transition into cooler weather.

1. Opt for a Deeper Shade:

  • Why: Continue your summer glow into fall as it naturally begins to fade.

  • How: Request a slightly deeper shade to maintain your summer color.

2. Get The Hydrator:

  • Why: The air becomes drier, and so does your skin.

  • How: Book The Hydrator enhancement add-on to combat dry skin.

3. Exfoliate Weekly:

  • Why: Regular exfoliation helps in maintaining an even tan.

  • How: Use a gentle exfoliator once a week to remove dead skin cells before your upcoming spray tan appointment.


Winter: Keep The Glow Alive

Winter can be harsh on your skin, but that doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice your tan.

1. Hydrate, Hydrate, Hydrate:

  • Why: Central heating and cold weather can dry out your skin.

  • How: Drink plenty of water, use a heavy-duty moisturizer, and also book The Hydrator.

2. Avoid Hot Showers:

  • Why: Hot water can strip away your tan.

  • How: Opt for lukewarm showers and pat your skin dry gently.

3. Request Clear Solution:

  • Why: These products help maintain your tan subtly.

  • How: Request for your artist to use our Clear Solution that is bronzer-free to maintain your glow during the winter months without overdoing it.


By following these tips tailored to each season, you can enjoy being bronzed all year long. Remember, the key to a lasting tan is proper
preparation and maintenance. Happy tanning!
