Our Spray Tanning Tips

Happy Weekend! We are so excited to be sharing one of our first spring looks with you all. Can we talk first about how good this denim skirt is?! It is like the version we used to wear back in 2005, but better! This one is a little longer, so it is more acceptable to wear with wedges (or flats).

We paired it with this classic button down shirt, which is hands down the best staple thing you can buy because you can dress it up or down- aka to the office, and then wear to happy hour or dinner, or on the weekends! And, the best part is, it is marked down to just over $40. We went with a size xs.

Speaking of sales, Abercrombie, has a huge sale going on for President’s Day! So many good pieces marked down, and we are sharing our below, so be sure to check those out!

Fun fact: Abercrombie was a MAJOR stop for all our shopping back in the day, and in the last few years it is back in our circle of favorites because they have so many good staple pieces at great price points!

We literally used to drag our poor parents to any Abercrombie store we could find and try on the entire store. And, of course, we had to get two of everything so we could match 😉 Needless to say, we have always been fans!

This look is so easy to recreate, and that is why we love it so much! You could also pair this white button up with some white jeans for an all white look, or with some basic jeans!

Speaking of skirts, we wanted to share some of our spray tanning tips with you all! We always feel better when we are tan, and of course, coming out of winter, we are all ghostly-looking! If it doesn’t bother you, more power to you, but we like to use some help from faux tanners/spray tans!

WHO DO WE GO TO?

First off, you want some tanners you can do yourself or at home, we shared some in this post , but we love this St. Tropez Self Tanner and this Eco Tan. As far as spray tans, we have been to Hush Hush Tan and we love On The Glow Tans DFW because she is so sweet, AND she comes to your house!

BEFORE YOU GET SPRAYED:

  • Shower before, if you can.
  • Exfoliate and shave in the shower.
  • DO NOT book a mani/pedi immediately after, so be sure to do that before the tan.
  • Wear loose, dark clothes, and no bra.
  • Take off ALL jewelry.
  • DO NOT apply moisturizers or deoderant.

DURING SPRAY TAN:

  • Take off all clothes (this what we do), but you can stay in bra or underwear, too!
  • Wear a shower cap to cover hair from spray.
  • Make sure you have something under your feet (either stickies or a towel), so you don’t get stains on your soles.
  • Follow their instructions, or if you go to the booths, ask them for tips!
  • Fan off or blow dry on the “cool” setting so you aren’t all sticky!

AFTER SPRAY TAN:

  • Use a baby wipe to wipe palms, bottom of feet, in between toes, in between fingers, nails and toe nails.
  • Leave on tan for at least 8 hours before rinsing off.
  • Avoid getting wet for a couple of hours.
  • If you have to sleep on it, we lay out an extra sheet on top of our bed to avoid staining.
  • After rinsing off, just pat skin with towel; don’t rub aggressively.
  • Apply moisturizer at least twice a day and use a tan extender, if possible.
