Re: barrier cream

It should be used on the nails and bottom of feet only...not the top.

Agreed....if good pretan prep (exfoliation and moisturise) and post tan prep is followed there really is no need for a barrier cream to be used even on knees and elbow areas.

Sticky feet,a towel ,couch roll or kitchen roll...whichever your bag is...will eliminate solution being drawn onto the soles of the feet.

The only time being advising a client to possibly put a heavy moisturiser on the palms of their hands before going to sleep....some clients just love to "touchy touchy" themselves during the night and just after a spray tan its not good on the palms of the hands

Re: barrier cream

some color gets thru most barrier cream. I also don't use barrier cream much. Just onm really dry spots of the skin. technique will fix most of the issues.

:
Do you put any kind of moisturizer on the knees/feet/ or hands before spraying..??? Wouldn't this cause discoloration??

Do you need to do any kind of blending on feet and hands?

Re: barrier cream

barrier cream on the palm of the hands, bottom of the feet and un painted nail is mostly want is done. If they have a really bad dry area I might put barrier cream on that area but very lightly.

Re: barrier cream

I use a light moisturizer on top of hands, nails, palms, knees, elbows, entire foot, and unpainted toenails(very important). I just think it makes a more even tan. After spraying, I blow dry client to help dry the moisturizer . I haven't had one complaint of orange hands or feet yet, and yes the solution will go through the moisturizer .

Re: barrier cream

No barrier cream here, just careful placement of the solution , have your client stand a towel to avoid dark soles, and dont directly spray dry areas, must let the slight overspray gently envlope those areas.
Also try using less solution , just a light mist is required... not a full blown hurricane force blast of solution .
