You Can Make It Last Longer!
The short answer: most spray tans last about 7 to 14 days.
The better answer: your tan’s lifespan depends on your skin, your prep, your formula, your aftercare, and how gently you treat your glow once you leave us.
At Just Glow, we use professional NUDA formulas because they are designed for natural-looking color, skincare-inspired results, and a smoother fade. Our professional NUDA solutions can last up to 10 days or more with proper care, and our tan-friendly aftercare helps maintain color and prevent premature fading!
Why Some Tans Last Longer Than Others
A spray tan lives on the outermost layer of your skin. As your skin naturally sheds, your tan fades. That is normal. That is healthy. That is skin being skin.
But when your skin is hydrated, balanced, and well-prepped, the tan has a better canvas. It can develop more evenly and fade more gracefully.
- Dry skin? Faster fade.
- Over-exfoliation? Patchy fade.
- Hot showers and scrubbing? Goodbye, glow…sooner.
- Good prep and aftercare? Chef’s kiss.
Why NUDA Helps The Fade
Our NUDA professional formulas are made with skincare-grade ingredients, vegan and cruelty-free standards, and naturally derived DHA. Their formulas are also designed to support hydrated, natural-looking results rather than a harsh, flat bronze.
Even more importantly, at Just Glow, we match your color to your skin tone and undertone.
That matters because when the shade belongs on your skin, it fades more naturally. No muddy ankles. No strange color shift. No “what happened here?” moment on day five.
Just a soft little sunset fade.
So How Do You Make It Stay Longer
After your appointment:
- Wait the full recommended rinse time
- Avoid sweating or water until after your first rinse
- Keep showers warm, not hot
- Pat dry instead of rubbing hard
- Moisturize daily
- Avoid any exfoliants until you are ready to remove your tan
- Use our tan-safe products whenever possible
We specifically recommend our line of NUDA tan-friendly aftercare products, including moisturizers, body washes, and lotions formulated for spray tans, to help maintain color and prevent early fading. Shop at your appointment or online at www.justglowtan.com for all your needs.

Because a lasting glow is not luck.
It is prep, product, artistry, and a little bit of glow-girl discipline.
