A Basic Melt Tan is a quick way to add healthy looking colour without the sun. It is ideal when you want an even glow that looks natural in day to day light, whether it is for a weekend, a holiday, or simply to feel a bit more polished. The application is neat and comfortable, with clear guidance on prep and aftercare so your tan develops evenly and fades nicely.

More information

What your Basic Melt Tan appointment covers

A straightforward tan, applied evenly, with the essentials done properly.

  • A quick chat at the start to confirm the depth of colour you want and where you want extra care, such as hands, feet, knees, and elbows.
  • Light barrier protection on drier areas to help reduce patchiness as the tan develops.
  • Even application of tanning solution for a smooth, streak free finish.
  • A few minutes to dry down before you get dressed.
  • Simple aftercare guidance so you know when to rinse, how to moisturise, and how to help the colour last.

Basic Melt Tan for last minute plans and low fuss glow

This is a good fit if you want a natural looking boost without spending ages getting ready. It works well for events, holidays, or when you want your skin tone to look more even with minimal makeup. If you are new to tanning, a Basic Melt Tan is a sensible starting point because the steps are simple and the result is wearable.

How the Basic Melt Tan is applied in around 25 minutes

Your tan is applied in a fine, even layer with careful attention to common problem areas where tan can catch. You will be guided on how to stand and turn so the application stays consistent across the body. You will leave with clear instructions on how to let the tan develop without smudging or transfer.

Keeping your Melt Tan even as it fades

Moisturising daily is the biggest difference maker for an even fade. Avoid long hot baths, harsh scrubs, and anything that strips the skin quickly. If you would like your next tan to sit smoothly, gentle exfoliation in the days before your next appointment helps prevent dry patches and uneven build up.

Frequently Asked Questions

How should I prep for a Basic Melt Tan?
Exfoliate the day before, then keep skin clean and moisturiser free on the day of your appointment. Avoid deodorant, perfume, and heavy body lotions just before tanning. If you shave or wax, aim to do it at least 24 hours beforehand.
Will a Basic Melt Tan look orange?
A well applied tan should look like healthy colour, not orange. The key is even application and letting it develop properly before rinsing. Following the prep and aftercare advice helps keep the tone clean and natural.
How long does a Basic Melt Tan last?
Most tans last several days, depending on your skin, bathing habits, and how well you moisturise. Daily moisturiser helps the colour hold and fade more evenly. Long hot baths, swimming, and exfoliating too soon can make it fade faster.
When can I shower after my Basic Melt Tan?
You will be advised on your rinse time at your appointment, as it depends on the solution used and the depth you want. Until you rinse, avoid getting wet, sweating heavily, or applying products to the skin. After rinsing, pat dry and moisturise.
What should I wear to my Basic Melt Tan appointment?
Loose, dark clothing is best, think joggers and an oversized top, plus open shoes if you can. Avoid tight waistbands and bras straight after, as they can mark the developing tan. Bring something comfortable that you do not mind getting a little colour on.
