THE ULTIMATE BRONZE GOAL GUIDE

Tips to help you create the most natural-looking self-tan

1. PREPARATION

Start by exfoliating your skin with a body scrub, paying particular attention to dry areas such as elbows and knees.

Once you’ve exfoliated, remove any unwanted hair and keep skin clean and free from any moisturiser, lotion or perfume before you tan.

2. CHOOSE THE RIGHT FORMULA

If you have drier skin, one of our hydrating tanning lotions will ensure your skin is extra moisturised and help create an even finish.

If you’re after a super fast drying tan, you’ll love our range of self-tanning mousses that dry in an instant and are super easy to apply.

Want to avoid any transfer to clothing? Invisi Foaming Tan Water is a clear, colourless mousse which is perfect for keeping sheets clean.

3. USE A TANNING MITT

The soft flock surface of the Tanning Mitt allows you to evenly distribute and blend the self-tan onto your skin. It also helps to protect the palms of your hands from the tan, making sure you don’t end up with unnaturally tanned hands.

4. LET THE TAN DEVELOP

If you’re using one of our lasting tans such as pHenomenal 2-3 Week Tan Mousse or Lotion, Fabulous Mousse or Lotion then you’ll need to let the tan develop over four to six hours to ensure you get the best results. During this time, you should avoid contact with water. Some people choose to apply their tan before bed and rinse off the next morning.

5. DON’T FORGET ABOUT A FACE TAN

For a customized face tan, try our Self Tanning Anti Age Serum, simply add a couple of drops to your usual skincare before bed and wake up with a natural face glow.

Looking for an instant result? Apply our instant skin perfecting and bronzing Beauty Blur as a primer under make-up, or use on its own for a glowy no-make-up look.

6. FINISHING TOUCHES

Once your tan is applied and developed, there are a few finishing touches you can add to ensure your skin is looking flawless all over.

If you have an event or party to go to, our Body Blur HD Skin Finish is the perfect addition to your tan. The instant bronzing lotion will blur imperfections and add a flawless, camera ready glow – it’s like an Instagram filter in a bottle!

7. MAINTAINING YOUR TAN

How you maintain your tan is going to be key to having a glow that lasts and looks good. Thankfully, our products are made with deeply hydrating ingredients such as aloe vera, raspberry and melon so you can be sure your tan will fade evenly, just like a natural sun tan.

Want to further extend your tan? Apply our Fabulous Gradual Tan Lotion every day for extra hydration and a boost of self-tan.
