not only does it take time to dry, you can't shower for 6-8 hours after being sprayed. Your skin will only absorb so much per application. So def wait until after you shower off the extra from one spray to do another.

Thanks so much!
Well, I stopped by the tanning salon. They are kind of clueless about protan..they've never used it before, but they said they will spray me. So, I scheduled 3 sessions for Wed, Thurs, and Fri.
The only thing that sucks about it is that they require you to wear underwear, and no thongs. So I guess I'm just going to wear the skimpiest undies I can get away with and have my boyfriend do what they don't cover.
They also said I should exfoliate w/ a good body scrub beforehand. Does anyone know of a good one?
I have to order the protan myself...3 8oz bottles should be enough, right?

Geez, where do you live? I thought Indiana was conservative, but they all just want the "parts" covered (and the top parts don't matter). Last I knew, everybody had a BUTT!!! lol

I don't know how much an airbrush uses, but I would think 3 bottles would be plenty.

Just use a poofer (a nylon puff ball thingie) or some apricot scrub - something similar to that.

And make sure you've stopped using lotion on your skin a few days ahead of time - you want your skin to be dried out so it absorbs the Protan.....

I only exfoliated with a loofah mitt - no scrub stuff....

they cant do you naked? the place we go to here will do it if you ask. Ive considered the spray on with the protan... let us know how it goes! better than applying it myself and on husband!

and 3 bottles will definitly do for 1 competition! we go through exactly 3 bottles together (hubby & I) for each competition.

for exfoliating scrubs- walmart or local pharmacy look for a deep exfolatiant with sea salt, be sure to get an exfolating mitt as well.

rinse VERY well! be sure not to lotion your body up after... any added lotions before applying protan wont allow your skin to absorb the color as well.
Protan has a great pre-application body scrub as well, that works greats to get the protan off post-comp too.

now off to see the new pics!

you are going to do GREAT darlin!!!!
