The Soho Guide to Making Your Tan Last Longer

There’s nothing quite like rocking healthy glowing skin, to feel like we’re sliding into summer.

Even if it’s freezing outside thanks to the good old Blighty weather.

Yet how annoying is it, when your carefully applied self-tan quickly fades, leaving uneven patches behind! 😩

The secret, dear Soho Tanning Clubbers…is all in the prep and priming.

So, you’ve got a full weekend planned and want to achieve that sexy glow in plenty of time? 💃

Follow our step-by-step guide to getting the most out of your tan #SohoTanningClubStyle. With not a patch of orange to be seen, or a whiff of biscuit to be sniffed.

24-hours before application

Before you grab that glass of something, crank up the tunes and don that tanning mitt…

Always exfoliate skin at least 24 hours before tan application
Likewise make sure any hair removal treatments are carried out at least 24 hours beforehand
This ensures your skin can settle and any dry areas that can ‘grab’ the tan, causing patches and streaky results are no more
To remove any stubborn leftover areas from a previous self-tan application, try our Tan Remover and Primer Mousse. With unique 2-in-1 technology, this revolutionary tan remover cleanly and gently takes away any old tan residue, prepping and priming the skin ready for your next glow up!

How does it work?

For best results apply the mousse on to our Soho exfoliation mitt. This sassy formula gets to work in just five minutes. Gently apply the mousse onto the skin. Watch the lather become slightly discoloured as the tan remover brings out any old tan residue.

Apply more as required.

With the mousse’s exfoliating and moisturising properties, skin is left silky smooth, and smelling fresh.

Now you’re all good to go for the next step.

Tanning Thursdays.

What better time to tan up ready for the weekend?

Add a little moisturiser to any dry areas, such as elbows, knees, hands and knuckles
Avoid deodorant before application as this can ‘grab’ the tan and leave patchy results
Select your favourite Soho tanning shade and fragrance and shake the bottle well
Pump the mousse onto our Soho tanning mitt
For a streak free finish, apply to the skin in even circular motions or long even strokes
Tan will develop over 8 hours (try to avoid contact with water during this time)
Then let our moisture locking technology work its magjc
Simply rinse off 8 hours later
Well, hello glow up and beautifully hydrated skin!
