Spray Tan FAQs
-
How long does it take?
The spray tan itself takes around 20 minutes. For a single mobile appointment, allow approximately 30–45 minutes in total, including set-up, your colour consultation, tanning and pack-down.
All Bronzed tans use express formulas, so there’s no need for an all-day development time. Your recommended rinse time is tailored during your consultation, with most tans rinsing within 1–3 hours.
-
How do I prepare for my appointment?
You will receive a pre-treatment checklist from me before your appointment that will cover the following:
- Exfoliating a day before
- Moisturise a day before
- No moisturisers, perfumes or deodorant the day of the spray tan -
Post Tan Care - What do I do?
You will receive aftercare instructions after your appointment, mentioning the following:
- For the initial rinse, use lukewarm water and rinse until the water runs clear. Avoid soaps or loofahs, and gently pat yourself dry.
- Moisturise, moisturise, moisturise from the following day.
- If you want to extend the life of your tan even further, we recommend our Spray Tan Extender product. -
Can I include my friend, partner or family member?
Absolutely! Save with our package discounts. View the prices here.
-
I have an event on Saturday, when should I schedule my tan?
For most events, I recommend tanning 1–2 days beforehand.
For a Saturday event, Thursday evening is my preferred timing, giving your colour time to fully develop and settle before the day.
Heading away instead? The night before you leave is usually the perfect time.
If your schedule looks a little different, I can tailor your tan and rinse time around you.
-
I'm pregnant or breastfeeding, can I get a spray tan?
If you're pregnant or breastfeeding, we recommend checking with your healthcare provider before booking. Please let me know beforehand so we can discuss your appointment and any additional precautions.
-
Will swimming affect my tan?
Unfortunately, yes! Swimming can impact your tan. Chlorinated water can lighten skin, and swimming naturally exfoliates, which may cause your tan to fade faster. To help maintain your glow, keep swims short and apply a water-resistant sunscreen as a protective barrier between your bronze and the water.
-
How long will my tan last?
With good post care, your tan will typically last 7-10 days, gradually fading as skin cells renew. To keep your glow longer, we have a Tan Extender, which can extend your bronze for up to two weeks while nourishing and soothing your skin.

What's best practice post having my teeth whitened?
You will receive aftercare instructions after each appointment.
The first 24-48 hours are crucial - avoid any food or drinks that could stain or colour your teeth. -
What are the payment terms and conditions?
- Travel within a 15km radius from central Auckland is included.
- 15% surchage on Sundays and public holidays.

I have veneers or crowns, will it still work?
Artificial caps, crowns, and veneers whiten differently than natural teeth. While whitening can remove stains and restore them to their original colour, the change may be less noticeable compared to natural teeth. It's also important to note that veneers and caps can still become stained over time.
