If you are wanting to remove your spray tan it is better to do it right, instead of doing a messy job and staying covered in streaks or spots for days.

Here you will find information that will be of use to you. Follow our instructions and you will find the process of removing your spray tan as easy and convenient, as getting your tan sprayed.

How to remove spray tan from skin after application

The easiest way to get rid of your fake tan is do it right after you exit the tan cubicle or put the air gun away. Of course, people do not often grow unsatisfied with their tan right after they get it, but anything can happen.  If something bothers you about your tan or you feel that you do not like yourself a few shades darker, just carefully wipe your tan away with a damp cloth or wash rag. Make sure to do it evenly and thoroughly, to avoid having mismatched skin color for a couple of days.

Tips for removing dried tan

Professional studios usually dry your spray tan after applying it. This makes the task a bit harder for you, but it can still be done. Hop into the shower or bath, make sure that the water is acceptably hot and soapy. Then grab an exfoliating mitt and body scrub. Make sure to be thorough, but not too hard: you just want to get the tan off your skin, not irritate it.  One product that can assist in removing a spray tan that has been on your skin for a few days is the  Bondi Sands Self Tanner Remover.  This remover is applied to dry skin first, followed by a shower with warm water and soap.  This product is gentle on your skin and contains a moisturizer to leave your skin smooth and your color more even.

Another new product that is easy to use is Tan Remover Soap by Model Co.  This product works quickly to remove any old self- tan or spray tan build up, streaks, or residue.  The soap does act as a pumice in order to polish and exfoliate the skin.  You can also use this on your skin prior to getting a spray tan in order to remove the dead, dry skin first.

There are plenty of exfoliating gloves that will assist you in getting your skin back to its original color.  A good one to use is the Tan Removing and Skin Polishing Glove by Loving Tan.  This salon-quality exfoliating mitt will help you reach all the areas that have been spray tanned, and is also machine washable for easy clean up.

You do not always have to buy separate products to get rid of the tan. You can try to create your own tan-removing solution from the things you have at home and they might be as effective or similarly effective.  You can try a combination of baby oil and baking soda or a little baby oil mixed with sea salt.  Both the baking soda and sea salt may work as an effective exfoliator in helping to remove your tan.  However, if your tan is especially dark or has not started to fade on its own you may need the help of some of the products mentioned above.  The main thing to remember is to gently scrub your skin and do not use anything that is too harsh or irritating.
