Before Bronzing
To achieve an even and long-lasting result from your spray tan at Bronza, proper preparation is essential. By preparing your skin correctly before your self-tan treatment, you ensure a natural, sun-kissed tone that lasts longer.
Wax/Shave
If you want to wax/shave, do it no later than 48 hours before bronzing. This helps the pores close and reduces the risk of them absorbing colour. However, the colour does not adhere to body hair, so it’s perfectly fine to come unshaved.
Exfoliate the skin
Exfoliate your skin 24 hours beforehand so that your bronzing adheres better and fades more evenly. Do not apply oil/lotion when there is less than 24 hours left before your treatment.
Clean skin
At the treatment, your skin should be clean and dry with no makeup or deodorant. Avoid using products that contain oils on the body.
Before spray tan: Don’t apply any products to the skin on the same day, as it can ruin the result.

Questions and answers
A spray tan usually lasts 5–7 days, depending on how well the skin was prepared before the treatment and how it is cared for afterwards.
The colour sits on the outermost layer of the skin and can therefore fade faster if the skin is exposed to heat, water, sweat or friction.
On the face and hands, the colour may fade a little faster since these areas are washed more often.
Our formulas are fast-acting, which means they can be rinsed off after 1–6 hours.
For best results, however, we recommend waiting 3–6 hours.
The longer the color develops before you rinse it off, the deeper the result.
We do not recommend sleeping with the color on.
For best results, we recommend that you follow our tanning tips before the treatment.
We recommend getting your spray tan two days before your wedding day.
That gives the color time to develop and allows you to shower at least twice, resulting in an even, natural-looking finish.
The most popular shade for weddings is Natural Bronze.
If you're breastfeeding, we recommend informing your bronzing artist before the treatment.
During the spray tan, you can cover your breasts and nipples, and we'll help you on site.
Yes, after the first 12 weeks of pregnancy, it's fine to get a spray tan.
Yes, absolutely! You can combine your spray tan with Bronza's products. To extend and refresh your color, we recommend moisturizing your skin daily and, when needed, topping up with our sunless tanning products to keep your glow going longer.
After Bronzing
After your spray tan at Bronza, proper aftercare is the key to a long-lasting, even result. By caring for your skin the right way, you can extend your sunless tan and maintain a fresh, natural-looking color.
To achieve a perfect result, it's important that you prep your skin according to our tips before the treatment and follow our advice for the best results.
Loose-fitting clothing
We recommend wearing dark, loose clothing and roomy shoes after your spray tan. Tight clothing and underwear can leave marks. Excess color may stain your clothes, but it will wash out. No worries!
Shower
After your spray tan, shower without soap in lukewarm water for about 2–3 minutes, and use your hands to gently but thoroughly sweep over your entire body so the color rinses off evenly and properly. The brown excess color will wash away, while the bronzer pigments activate and then deepen over the next 24 hours. Pat your skin dry. Do not rub or scrub your skin.
Moisturize
Try not to use shower cream, shampoo, or exfoliating products during the first 24 hours after the treatment. However, it's great to moisturize your skin with body lotion immediately after your first shower and every day after using bronzing products.
