Glow Like You Own the Night
Your Semi / Formal Glow Starts Here
Hey my gorgeous formal / semi formal beauty…
THIS is your glow moment. Your dress, your photos, your tan — it’s all part of the magic. I’m here to make sure you walk in looking like the main character (because you ARE).
Let’s make your tan PERFECT.
And easy.
And stress-free.
​YOUR FORMAL GLOW GUIDE — BY KARINA
1. First things first… BOOK YOUR TRIAL (Glow Insurance!)
PLEASE book a trial at least 3 weeks before your formal.
This is not “extra” — it’s ESSENTIAL.
Why we do a trial tan:
we find your PERFECT shade
your skin resets beautifully
you know exactly what you’re getting
and you won’t stress (or cry… formal girls, I know you )
2. Choosing Your Shade (Let me guide you!)
Let me make this SUPER clear because I hear it all the time:
There is no “dark but not too dark.”
There is:
Light (soft glow)
Medium (obvious tan, but still very natural)
Dark (4–5 hour rinse, strong colour but beautifully natural)
Ultra Dark (maximum depth, 5–8 hours, super bronzed but still natural)
IMPORTANT:
The darker you go compared to your natural skin tone…
the more noticeable the fade will be.
Meaning you’ll need good prep + good aftercare.
I’ll ALWAYS help you choose the right shade for:
✔ your dress
✔ your skin tone
✔ the occasion
✔ and the exact glow you want to walk in with
​
3. Prep Like a Glow Pro (PLEASE read this!)
You’ll get an email with all the details, but here’s your quick version:
✔ exfoliate the day before (never the same day)
✔ hydrate your skin days before (NOT on the same day)
✔ arrive with CLEAN skin
✔ NO deodorant
✔ NO perfume
✔ NO lotions
✔ NO makeup
✔ NO sweat
NADA!!!!!
​
Sunburn → cannot be hidden, fixed, or spray-tanned over.
It can take weeks to settle even when it LOOKS fine.
If you have had any sunburn in the last few weeks → PLEASE TELL ME.
Peeling ruins tans.
I don’t want a patchy queen on formal night.
Protect your skin ALWAYS.
​
4. The Magic Timing — When to Tan
Your formal tan should ALWAYS be done:
2 DAYS BEFORE YOUR FORMAL
​
Example:
Saturday formal → Thursday tan
Why this is the secret to perfection:
bronzers settle
the colour softens
you don’t smell like tan the night of
photos look INCREDIBLE
​
SPORTS GIRLS READ THIS!
If you have:
netball, cheer, soccer, dance, gym, athletics, running — ANYTHING…
Tan AFTER the sport.
Sweat removes tan.
Sports bras rub tan.
Socks rub tan.
Everything rubs tan.
​
5. Should We Tan Your Face?
I can tan your face very lightly and naturally, but ALWAYS check your makeup artist first.
Some prefer no tan on the face. Some don’t care.
Either way → the face + body will match.
I’ve got you.
​
6. After Your Tan — Your “Do Absolutely Nothing” Day
The day after your spray tan please look after the skin and hydrate. And don't:
- Do hard exercises
- Go running
- Go swimming
- Get very sweat from exercising
Yes my love, you now have an OFFICIAL excuse to do nothing.
Relax. Hydrate. Watch Netflix.
No sweat. No stress. Just glowing.
​
7. Things You NEED to Know
​
Clothing:
Some dresses (especially tight ones) may get a little tan on the inside.
This is normal.
It ALWAYS comes out with dry cleaning.
No one will see it. Don’t panic.
​
PS: Book in advance. Purchase any prep and aftercare you might need.
I have you fully covered with best products in the market to prep and look after your skin. if in doubt just message me.
