Fortunately, fake tan became readily available in the 1920s allowing the body to achieve its tanned to perfection look year-round and it still holds its value in modern society.

However, are you taking the right steps to ensure your spray tan goes swimmingly? Here are our top tips for achieving the perfect sun-kissed look.
Safety First
As with any product you put on your skin, there may be a risk of it having a reaction and either burning you or leaving a rash. If this was to happen all over your body following a spray tan then it may be extremely painful. To avoid this happening, perform a patch test before going into your spray tan session. This is done by applying a small amount of the fake tan you’ll be using to your body using a cotton pad on the crease of the elbow or behind the ear. When left for 24 hours, you will be able to tell if your skin has had a reaction or if it is fine to go ahead using this spray tan kit.
