CHOCOLATE SUN Nature’s Healthy Tan
Chocolate sun is an all natural sunless solution made with organically grown ingredients. We have replaced the harsh chemicals and additives found in other solutions with botanicals, vitamins, and essential oils. With the Chocolate Sun custom blended recipe you will achieve a beautiful color that looks natural on all skin tones.
Preparation
Before your sunless tanning treatment make sure to shower and exfoliate.
Do not use exfoliating products that are heavily oil-based, as these types of scrubs leave a residue that block the tanning process.
Make sure your body is free of make-up, moisturizer, oil, and deodorant.
For best results schedule manicure, pedicure and waxing at least a day before the tan.
Wear dark, loose fitting clothing, flip-flops or loose sandals.
The Session
Your technician will consult with you on your ideal tan and will then custom blend the appropriate solution for your skin type. It will be applied by hand, using our Chocolate Sun mister, leaving a flawless, natural glow or a deep dark tan.
Please inform your technician of any skin problems, trouble spots, or any issues you may have had with other sunless tanning products.
The application time takes approximately 15 minutes, but plan on a total of 30 minutes from start to completion.
Do not worry if your hands and feet appear lighter than the rest of your body. These areas are purposely sprayed lightly because they develop more intensely than the other areas of the body.
After-Tan Care
After your treatment, we recommend waiting 8-12 hours before your first post treatment shower. This will give adequate time for the solution to properly develop. This development is imperative for the best results.
If you notice any flaws on your skin prior to your first shower, they are likely rubs from clothing. Please do not attempt to fix any noticeable imperfections in the bronzer you see on the skin. The bronzer is NOT your tan and in most cases the final color change to your skin will be without flaw. Until you have completed your “treatment development time”, you should not expose your skin to water, excessive sweating, working out, or other products (including lotions, crèmes, makeup, etc).
In the event where water or other liquid is accidentally splashed on the skin during development time, carefully and lightly blot affected area with a dry cloth. Do not rub excessively or attempt to blend. Remember the color you see is the bronzer and the treatment will most likely be unaffected.
During your first shower, the color run off is just the bronzer used as a color guide. This color is not your tan washing off.
Use soap only where necessary. Scrubbing and exfoliating will cause the tan to fade more quickly.
