(Coquitlam, BC, Canada) Question: How long after a spray tan can I shower? Is longer better and or is too long bad? Answer: Spray tan usually develops over 5-12 hours, so you should definitely abstain from showering for at least 5 hours.
Fade Over Time. Not every tan will lighten enough in a single day -- you may have to spend some time working at it. Cut a lemon in half and rub it over your skin to help fade the tan. Apply a lotion that contains alpha-hydroxy acids once daily to encourage faster skin cell shedding.Use a loofah or exfoliant in every shower. If you have too-dark spots in areas you normally shave or wax, do so.ipe down the worst of your tan right away with a wet cloth, then hop into a warm bath mixed with 1 cup of baking soda. The water not only helps wash off your tanner; it also relaxes your skin enough to increase the effectiveness of your next fading effort: exfoliating.
