As we age, our skin naturally changes. Fine lines become more noticeable, skin can become drier, and achieving a healthy, radiant glow can feel more challenging. The good news? A professionally applied spray tan can be one of the easiest ways to instantly brighten your complexion and leave your skin looking healthy, fresh and youthful – without exposing it to harmful UV rays.
At Wild About Tan, we regularly spray tan clients of all ages, and we know that with the right preparation and shade, a spray tan can enhance mature skin beautifully.
Why Spray Tanning is Perfect for Mature Skin
Unlike sunbathing, which can accelerate premature ageing, spray tanning provides a gorgeous bronzed glow without damaging your skin.
A professional spray tan can help:
- Give tired-looking skin a healthy, radiant appearance.
- Create a more even skin tone.
- Reduce the appearance of minor imperfections.
- Add warmth and definition to the face and body.
- Boost confidence for holidays, weddings and special occasions.
The secret is choosing the right shade and ensuring the skin is well prepared beforehand.
Preparation is Everything
Mature skin tends to be naturally drier, making preparation even more important.
Moisturise Regularly
In the days leading up to your appointment, keep your skin well moisturised to create the perfect canvas for your tan. Well-hydrated skin helps produce a smoother, more even finish. Exfoliate Gently
Use a gentle exfoliator 24 hours before your appointment to remove dry skin and create an even surface for the tanning solution.
Avoid harsh scrubs that may irritate sensitive skin.
Avoid Heavy Products on the Day
On the day of your appointment, arrive with clean skin that’s free from moisturisers, oils, deodorants and perfumes unless you’ve been advised otherwise by your spray tan professional.
Choosing the Right Shade
One of the biggest misconceptions is that darker is always better.
For mature skin, a soft, natural-looking glow often looks far more flattering than an ultra-dark tan.
At Wild About Tan, our experienced mobile spray tan professionals will recommend a shade that complements your natural skin tone and desired look, ensuring beautiful, believable results.

Don’t Forget Your Hands and Feet
Hands, elbows, knees and feet naturally absorb more tanning solution because the skin is often drier.
Our trained technicians take extra care when applying tan to these areas, helping to achieve a beautifully natural finish.
