• do i have to exfoliate before tanning?

  look, if you follow any advice, it’s to exfoliate or prep your skin with a tan eraser. if you have any dirt or dead skin cells hangin’ round, your chances of having a patchy tan are much, much higher because the tan will fade in some spots quicker

• can i tan my face?

  you can use any of our self tan/gradual tan products on the face as well! we recommend only using the left over residue left on your mitt after you've tanned your whole body so that you don't use too much (our faces absorb product easier)

• is the tan going to streak or go blotchy?

  our biggest tip is that tan loves hydrated, smooth skin, so ensure your skin is well exfoliated, hydrated afterwards by drinking water and moisturizing daily!

• can i get dressed after i apply the tan, or how long do i have to wait?

  we recommend waiting until the tan feels slightly dry on the skin - then chuck on some loose, dark clothing - to prevent any unwanted staining and rubbing from tight clothes - and you’re good to go!

• do i need to shower off the tan with soap after it has been left on?

  for the first shower after tanning we recommend no soaps, lukewarm water and only a super quick (approx. 45 seconds) rinse so that the tanning actives can keep developing to their darkest potential.

tips and tricks for the best tanning results

- please ensure your skin is well-exfoliated beforehand and there are absolutely no other products present on your skin at the time of tanning (e.g. moisturisers, lotions, deodorant etc.)

- when rinsing, you should only have a lukewarm 45 second shower with absolutely no soaps, gels etc.

- you may not be using enough product for your skin to absorb (our skin types all absorb certain products differently!) so you can try using more next time/double coating

- your skin may need longer to absorb the product: maybe try leaving it on 3-6 hours

Please also note that the color develops more over the next 12-24 hours after rinsing. xx
