STEP 1. PREPARATION
- Shave or wax at least 24 to 48 hours before applying self-tanner. This prevents the color from settling in open pores.
- Exfoliate and moisturize your skin the night before, paying extra attention to dry areas such as elbows, hands, knees, and ankles.
- Avoid using deodorant, perfume, or makeup just before applying your self-tanner.
- Tie your hair back in a ponytail so that your face and neck are free.
