- Keep your facial routine as simple as possible. The more products, the faster the color fades.
- Avoid long, HOT showers.
- Do not exfoliate. Do not scrub. The more you shave, the faster the color fades.
- Avoid applying perfume directly to your skin.
- Hot Tubs & Swimming Pools will fade your tan.
- Avoid toothpaste with a whitener in it. (or.. don't be messy)
- Avoid bar soap; Dove soap completely. Do not use a washcloth or loofah. Gently use your hands with shower gel.
- ALWAYS pat dry after your shower. Do not rub skin dry.
- HYDRATE! Hydrated skin is essential to maintaining a long lasting tan. Slowing the process of natural skin exfoliation.
- MOISTURIZE! Like you never have before! Doing this at least twice a day will elongate the life of your tan. We recommend using "Hush Tan recommended Extender's" For best results.

- Begin a few days before your next bronzing session, make sure to remove every last trace of color on the skin.
- Begin taking hotter, longer showers or baths. This will help speed up the exfoliation process.
- We recommend gently exfoliating, using coconut or baby oil during hot shower or bath. Then take a wash cloth and gently scrub areas on the body that still have color.
- Excessive scrubbing can dry out or irritate the skin. It may take a couple of showers to get the color off completely.
- don't forget to pay attention to the areas you don't see, like the back of the knees and neck.
