Summer may be over, but that doesn’t mean your glow has to fade with the sunshine. As the air turns crisp and the sweaters come out, skin often looks duller and drier. That’s where sunless tanning steps in. At BodiBronze, we believe your skin deserves to shine year-round. With the right care and a few seasonal adjustments, you can keep your tan looking flawless well into fall.

Why Spray Tans Matter in Fall
Cooler weather often means:
Less time outside in natural sunlight.
Dry, flaky skin from brisk winds and indoor heating.
Layered clothing that can dull confidence in your skin.
A spray tan keeps your skin radiant and healthy-looking, even when summer’s natural glow has disappeared. It’s not just about color, either—it’s about confidence. Walking into a room with bronzed skin in October makes a statement that you’re in control of how you want to look and feel.
Moisturize Like It’s Your Job
If there’s one non-negotiable in fall tanning, it’s moisture. Dry autumn air is the enemy of a long-lasting tan.
Use an oil-free, fragrance-free moisturizer daily.
Apply especially after showers, when skin is most receptive.
Focus on problem areas like elbows, knees, and ankles that tend to fade fastest.
Pro tip: Avoid petroleum-based lotions—they break down spray tans quicker than you think.

Adjust Your Skincare Routine
Fall is a great time to check your products:
Cleansers: Opt for gentle, hydrating cleansers instead of harsh soaps.
Exfoliation: Keep it light. A gentle exfoliator once or twice a week prevents patchiness without stripping your glow.
Body Oils: Skip them. Oils cause uneven fading and can shorten the life of your tan.
By tweaking your skincare routine, you’ll extend your spray tan and keep your skin soft despite the weather.
Wardrobe and Lifestyle Tips
What you wear and how you live can make a difference:
Stick to softer fabrics (cotton, bamboo) right after tanning to reduce rub-off.
Pat skin dry after a shower instead of rubbing with a towel.
Stay hydrated—your glow lasts longer when your skin is nourished from the inside.
These small daily habits help your tan look smooth and even.

When to Reapply
Unlike summer, when natural sun exposure might maintain a base glow, fall tans rely on maintenance.
Most clients refresh every 7–10 days.
If you have dry skin, consider reapplying sooner.
Ask about BodiBronze’s packages or memberships so you can stay on schedule without missing a beat.
Take Action!
Fall doesn’t have to be the season where your glow goes into hiding. With the right care, you can step into any room with confidence—even when the weather outside is dreary.
