How Long Does a Spray Tan Last? The Gló Guide ✨
There’s nothing quite like the confidence that comes with a flawless spray tan. The warm, sun-kissed glow, the even skin tone, and that instant boost of radiance—it’s the ultimate luxury beauty secret. But one question always comes up first:
“How long will my spray tan last?”
The truth? It depends. While most spray tans last anywhere from 5 to 10 days, the exact duration comes down to your skin type, your lifestyle, and the level of care you give your glow. At Gló, we believe in setting you up for success—so here’s everything you need to know about making your tan last as long as possible.Convenience Without Compromise
Time is one of today’s greatest luxuries. Driving across town, waiting for appointments, and rearranging your day can make beauty feel stressful instead of restorative.
With mobile beauty, that stress disappears. At Gló, we bring professional, high-end spray tanning directly to your doorstep—so you can enjoy a radiant, flawless glow without ever leaving your home.
The Life Cycle of a Spray Tan
Day 1–2: Your tan is developing and setting. This is when it looks its deepest, most radiant.
Day 3–5: Peak glow. Your skin looks even, bronzed, and flawless—perfect for events or photos.
Day 6–10: The fade begins. With the right care, your tan should fade gradually and naturally, without streaking or patchiness.Luxury in the Comfort of Home
What Affects How Long Your Tan Lasts?
Skin Type & Condition
Dry skin sheds faster than hydrated skin, which means a quicker fade. Keeping your skin moisturized is key to longevity.
Preparation
Exfoliating before your session removes dead skin cells and creates the smoothest canvas. A fresh base = a longer-lasting tan.Aftercare Habits
Hot showers, exfoliating products, and chlorine can all shorten your tan’s lifespan. Gentle care and hydration will extend it.Lifestyle
Workouts, sweating, and swimming naturally cause the tan to fade faster—so balancing activity with care can make all the difference.More Than a Trend—it’s a Lifestyle
Tips to Make Your Spray Tan Last Longer
✨ Exfoliate the day before. A smooth base helps your tan absorb evenly.
✨ Avoid lotions, perfumes, and oils before your session. They can create a barrier.
✨ Wait at least 6–12 hours before showering. Let the solution fully develop.
✨ Moisturize daily with a gentle, hydrating lotion. Hydrated skin = longer glow.
✨ Pat dry, don’t rub. A soft towel pat keeps your tan intact.
✨ Skip harsh products. Avoid scrubs, retinols, and anything that speeds up exfoliation.
