Gently exfoliate thoroughly using a loofah sponge or loofah mitt. You can use Baking Soda mixed with water to make a paste to exfoliate.

On Friday morning, exfoliate thoroughly and rinse off thoroughly. If you are washing your hair, make sure to dry it completely. Be free of lotion, deodorant, makeup, perfume on the day of your tanning session.
