Have an upcoming wedding? Party? High school reunion? And you want to look your best? Of course you’re going to get a great hair cut, buy just the right outfit and if you’re smart, you’re also going to plan your tanning strategy.

Plan for fabulous

There are those lucky few whose good looks happen by accident but most of us could use a boost. We don’t leave it to chance — we spend time on our wardrobe and getting-ready routine and we plan ahead so there are no surprises.

Here’s how mistakes are made: Last minute leaping! You don’t go shopping until the night before the big event and then you can’t find shoes to match your dress. Or you go to the hairdresser the day before and ask her to make you a blonde with honey highlights and you come home a platinum mess — too late to make changes. Or you decide to rev up your tan by spending one day alone with your tanning lotion and reapplying every time it dries. Don’t do it!

If you want to look great you need to give yourself time to get things right. That means planning your wardrobe beforehand, dieting down to the size you want to be (no last minute exercise binge and praying the spanx hold!), getting your hair done with time to spare and slowly but surely getting to your perfect bronze color.

We advise our customers to get the tan ahead of time. At least a month beforehand choose your favorite sunless tanning lotion and ease on in to the color you want to be. Take the time to exfoliate and apply carefully. Give yourself a day or two to get your glow or rev it up a little more with another application.

Remember: Looking great should look effortless but we all work hard to get there!
