Let’s talk about COMPETITION TANNING Your tan can literally destroy your stage performance. Its crucial to have a flawless Competition Tan…really, its one of the most important elements of a competition! However, with so many rules, regulations and different products to choose from, choosing the best colour for you and the spray tanner to apply that colour has become a challenge. Spray tanning has entered into the bodybuilding world, however, not all competition spray tans are created equally. Choose wisely, ask for pictures and dont be afraid to ask questions! Competition tanning is very different to regular tanning and going to a regular tanning salon for your competition tan may not give you the results you are after. Body building competitions, Fitness and Physique competitions, Dancing and performing on stage, Bikini and Fitness modelling require much darker tones to cope with the harsh lighting and photography. Use tanning products that are specifically designed for stage and photography to enhance your physique. After all the hard work you have put in to get the results you have achieved, the last thing you want is to look pale and washed out on stage. Tanning for First Time Competitors In most cases, two coats of competition Bronzer applied the day or night before the competition is sufficient. However, for those who are extremely fair, it may be advisable to apply a base coat two days before competing. This coat can be showered off before applying the final two coats the day before competition. If a tanning company will be on site for the show you are competing in, we suggest scheduling an appointment with them for the Friday afternoon/night before your comp. They will then apply at least two coats of competition colour. If more color depth is needed, then they will apply an additional coat early the morning of competition. The colour will develop over night and darken. For the very best results, spend the week prior to competition moisturizing your body using a moisturizer. The day before you receive your competition tan, exfoliate with an oil free body scrub. Pay special attention to the knees, elbows, hands feet and heels. The better condition your skin is in, the better the product will absorb, the more flawless your tan will look, and you will have a more even fade after the competition. The day of your spray tan, do NOT use moisturizer or deodorant. Wear old, LOOSE fitting clothing. It is also recommended that you do not put your posing suit on, or any other tight restrictive clothing, after having your color applied for at least 4-5 hours. Please try to have your posing practicing finished before being sprayed!
