New client intake — which allergy and skin questions are worth asking?

[Harry B]

I’ve been winging the consult a bit. What do you actually ask UK first-timers before you spray — allergies, meds, recent treatments — without turning it into a medical exam?

Want a short list I can stick on the booking form.

Keep it practical: known allergies (especially fragrance, nuts/oils if your liquid has them), recent peels/laser/waxing, open wounds or eczema flares, pregnancy (policy + product choice), and whether they’ve reacted to a spray tan before.

You’re not diagnosing — you’re deciding shade, fragrance-free option, and whether to postpone. Patch test when they’ve had reactions or you’re switching to a new liquid.

Fragrance-free lines (including some Suntana / OMG options) help nervous clients; still be honest if their skin isn’t suitable that day. A short form beats a long verbal chat they’ll forget.
