- Stay away from joints, crevices and folds which need to be applied with the triangle sponge.

- Apply small amounts of your self tanner to the thinner end of the triangle sponge. Lightly feather the self tanner on your joints, crevices and folds in your skin feathering lightly onto the smoother areas.
- Face: Use the triangle sponge to feather up to the lower eyelash line, down to the upper eye socket, hairline, eyebrows, and sides of nose, corners of your mouth and under the jaw line.
It is better to apply less self tanner than to heavy of an application that may take days to lighten.
Reapplication- Wait 3-4 hours for the color to develop
- Keep applying until the desired color is achieved waiting 3-4 hours between each application
- Best to do procedure at night or on a day with no outside activities that may interfere with the color development or application schedule.
Touch ups: The body is usually done every 3-4 days; face may be touched up daily depending on desired color. If using a glycolic, AHA or retinoid product you will need to touch up more often due to the exfoliation process from these ingredients.
Avoid: Self tanner coming in contact with clothing, carpets, fabrics, and man made materials i.e. plastic during application or immediately afterward. Avoid getting into your eyes and discontinue if irritation or rash appear.
