how long before a tan should i exfoliate?

Question: how long before i tan should i exfoliate? Is it okay to do it in the morning and get the tan in the afternoon or should it be done straight before?

Answer: Both exfoliating and shaving/waxing are best done about 36 hours before spray tanning so the pores have a chance to close properly. Otherwise you might finish with a "spotty" look if the bronzer lodges itself in the open pores.
