What is it?
An in-salon machine application of the St Tropez tanning agent. You can have it manually applied, but the machine spray is said to give better results.
What was it like?
Having had bad experiences with spray tans, I was worried I'd end up looking orange and have blotches on my feet - a difficult area to get an even spray. But with the weather heating up, baring all becomes more of a challenge, so I thought it was worth the risk.
The therapist offers you disposable underpants, although you can wear your own if you don't mind the temporary marks on them from the spray. She then asks you to stand in an open shower recess, starting with your back towards her. The spray may feel cold at first, but it's not uncomfortable.
Apart from rubbing some moisturiser into your fingernails and toenails to prevent the spray getting caught in the cuticles, there's no preparation.
