Removing Spray Tan.

Here are some tips for removing spray tan. You might have got too much of a good thing, or your tan might be simply getting old and a bit patchy. Time to get rid of it.

Hands, feet elbows and knees seem to take on more spray tanning solution than the rest of the body, because they have more dry skin on them. It is important to exfoliate those places extra carefully before you have your spray tan. Personally, I do not worry too much about the knees, because I figure that when I used to tan in the sun, my knees were always darker than the rest of my body, so I think that having knees a little bit darker just makes it look more natural.

What to use to take the stains off after spray tan.

Sometimes, no matter what you do, you still get darker stains. (Ever since I started using spray tanning solution without the bronzer in my spray tanning booth, I don’t seem to have that problem any more). The way to deal with them is to rub them off with exfoliant. If you use exfoliant on top of exfoliating glove, it seems to do a great job of removing spray tan.If you have done this, and not all has come off, a little bit of lemon juice, liquid bleach or hydrogen peroxide will do the trick.

Removing spray tan altogether. If you had a really dark spray on tan, at the end of its life it might be getting quite patchy, and if it is beyond the stage that can be touched up, you might want to take it off.

If you spray tan regularly, it might be a good idea to invest in a Baiden Mitten. It is an incredibly effective as pre-spray tan exfoliation, but it also works very well when you need to get rid of your old and patchy spray tan.

Of course if you use Baiden Mitten you do not put baby oil on your body and soak, but just soak in clean water for about 20 minutes and then scrub. Believe me, if Baiden Mitten will not remove that spray tan - nothing will.
