Can I use a spray tan with Aqualant?

Unfortunately, Aqualant does such a good job of sealing out the environmental elements that can harm your skin, that a spray tan will only bead up. It is recommended that you not apply Aqualant for three or four days before your tan application.

However, the good news is, that Aqualant will do an excellent job of sealing in the tan once its applied. :D

Kevin, I use transdermal pro-hormones. I was thinking that I'd apply them in the morning; and after my workout shower in the early evening I'd apply Aqualant. I gather this isn't going to work? Even if I scrub? Thanks & cheers, ~katz

katz, I have just found out from another user that electrocardiogram nodes will not stick to the body if you use Aqualant (that is just crazy!). I am afraid that anything that you want to use to stick to the skin is not going to work very well. I obviously can't reach my back when I spray it on. So, it got me to thinking that you might try applying the patch to a part of the body you won't use Aqualant on (like the lower back?)

Thanks - even if I scrub?? Or is the point that it stays on even in the shower, protecting skin from too much drying there?

yeah, i don't think you will scrub it off in one washing...it would take several washings I'm afraid. :D
