Can I exercise after my spray tan?

Is spray tanning safer than tanning in the sun?

Spray tanning provides cosmetic color without UV exposure from the sun or tanning beds. However, it does not provide sun protection, so sunscreen is still necessary when outdoors.

Yes. A spray tan gives your skin a beautiful bronzed appearance, but it does not provide sun protection. You should always wear sunscreen to help prevent sunburn, premature aging, and skin damage.
