    Two to three days before, go to your local tanning salons and see if they offer what is called a Mystic Tan.

    Mystics offer GREAT color and coverage, and last five to seven days after you get them.

    Just be sure to exfoliate well before you go get it, especially around elbows, knees, and ankles, and use the barrier cream around your toenails and fingernails. The operator will show you exactly how to do it when you go in for your session.

    Good luck!
