Best For

This collection is ideal for anyone who wants to extend the appearance of their spray tan, keep skin hydrated between appointments, refresh color at home, or build a simple maintenance routine.

Buildable Maintenance

Daily body wash, lotion, and body oil create the foundation of a great spray tan routine. Tan extenders and gradual glow products build on that routine when you want more control over your color.

Quick note: The longest-lasting spray tans are not maintained with one product. Start with a spray tan prep routine, moisturize daily with spray tan aftercare products, and add a tan extender or gradual glow product when you want to refresh your color.

Tan Extender & Spray Tan Maintenance FAQ

How can I make my spray tan last longer?

A longer-lasting spray tan starts with proper prep, then continues with consistent aftercare. Use a spray tan safe body wash, moisturize daily with lotion or body oil, and add a tan extender or gradual glow product when you want to refresh your color.

What is a tan extender?

A tan extender is a product designed to help maintain or refresh the appearance of your spray tan between appointments. Some products add gradual color, while others support the look of your tan through hydration and daily maintenance.

When should I start using a tan extender?

Follow the directions on your specific product, but many people add a tan extender after their first rinse and once their spray tan has fully developed. Use it when your color needs a refresh or when you want to maintain your glow between appointments.

Can I use body oil after a spray tan?

Yes, body oil can be part of a spray tan maintenance routine. A lightweight body oil helps skin feel soft and moisturized, which can support a smoother-looking fade. Pair it with gentle cleansing and avoid harsh exfoliation while maintaining your tan.

Should I use lotion or body oil to maintain my spray tan?

Both can be helpful. Lotion is a great daily moisturizer, while body oil can help lock in moisture and leave skin looking glowy. Choose the texture you prefer, or use both as part of a simple spray tan maintenance routine.

Do tan extenders replace spray tan aftercare?

No. Tan extenders work best when they are added to a consistent aftercare routine. Start with spray tan aftercare products like body wash, lotion, and body oil, then add a tan extender when you want extra color maintenance.

What products should I avoid when trying to extend my spray tan?

Avoid harsh scrubs, drying cleansers, and products that leave your skin feeling stripped while you are maintaining your tan. For more detail, read our guide to spray tan aftercare ingredients to avoid.
