Sizing Chart
Whether you’re a spray tan newbie or a seasoned glow-getter, there are always a few burning questions when it comes to getting your tan just right. Don’t worry, sis – as a Certified Beettan Spray Tan Artist, I’ve heard it all, and I’m here to spill the (beet-based) tea. Here are the top seven questions I get about spray tans:
With Beettan, absolutely not! This isn’t 2003, and you’re not competing on "The Real Housewives of Spray Tan Nightmares." We use a natural, beet-derived solution (yes, beets!) to give you a gorgeous, sun-kissed glow. The formula is designed to work with your undertones, so you’ll look like you just got back from a tropical vacay—not like you rolled in a bag of Doritos.
Pro-tip: Follow my prep and aftercare instructions, and you’ll be good as golden!
Typically, your glow will last about 7–10 days. But if you’re a goddess who moisturizes nightly, drinks water like it’s her job, and avoids long baths (sorry, tub lovers), you might be able to stretch it a little longer. Every tan is unique, but good care is key to making it last!
Hot tip: Use a sulfate-free body wash and dab (don’t rub!) yourself dry after showering.
Girlie, yes. You’ll want to wax or shave at least 24 hours before your appointment. This timing gives your skin a chance to chill out and your pores to close. If you skip this step, your tan might develop unevenly or look funky, and I know you’re better than that!
Reminder: Say no to lotion, deodorant, and makeup before your appointment too—they can mess with the solution.
I love the dedication, but that sweat session will need to wait. You’ll need to avoid sweating after your tan, which means no Spin class, and definitely no hot yoga. Once your tan has developed and you’ve showered, you can get back to showing off that glow while doing burpees (if that’s your thing).
PSA: High-impact sweat can shorten the life of your tan, so maybe channel your inner goddess with pilates or a walk instead.
Moisturize like your life (or at least your glow) depends on it. Hydrated skin = longer-lasting, even color. Ditch anything with harsh exfoliants or sulfates – these will strip your tan faster than your ex ghosted you. And for an extra pro move, grab the Beettan tan extender I always recommend (available in my boutique – shameless plug, I know).
Takeaway: Treat your tan with TLC, and it’ll serve you for days.
Ah, the tipping question. Honestly, you don’t have to tip, but just like with hair stylists or nail techs, tips are always appreciated. Running a small biz takes a ton of work, and spraying you to perfection isn’t just a service—it’s an art that has taken time, training and practice. If you loved your tan (and we know you did), a little “thank you” in the form of a tip goes a long way. But hey, if tipping isn’t in the cards, a heartfelt review or referral works wonders too.
TL;DR: Tip if you can, but always show appreciation (however you’re able).
Keep it loose and lovely! You’ll want to wear dark, loose-fitting clothes to your appointment. Anything tight (like leggings, bras, or skinny jeans) can rub against your skin and mess with your developing tan. Oh, and flip flops are your best friend! Trust me, your glow will thank you.
My Outfit Pick: Think flowy and cool, like you’re heading to brunch with your besties, not the a hot date with your sweetie. Schedule your spray tan here!
Spray tans don’t just make you look amazing—they boost your confidence, too! Whether you’re prepping for a beach vacay, a big event, or just want to feel like the glowing goddess you are, spray tans are a fab way to level up your look.
