Self tanning products are the safe & affordable way to get an instant, all over golden tan. They are simple & easy to use providing your skin with deep moisturisation at the same time. Today's range of tanning products are of superior quality, no streaks, fast drying, instant bronzing & long lasting. You can achieve a gorgeous, golden, sun kissed look any time of the year. 


How To Apply The Perfect Self Tan

Follow These Simple Tips To Achieve An Even, Long Lasting, Natural Glow

Step 1: Remove any unwanted hair 24 hours prior to self tanning to allow the skin to settle.

Step 2: It is important to always exfoliate your skin prior to self tanning. There are a variety of methods available including salt scrubs, exfoliating lotions & creams, loofahs & mitts. Exfoliate thoroughly, paying particular attention to rough areas such as feet, ankles, hands, knees & elbows. Exfoliation will allow for a smoother, longer lasting application & prevent your tan from appearing patchy or uneven.

Step 3: Apply a moisturiser all over the face & body, again paying particular attention to dry areas such as feet, ankles, knees & elbows. Allow to absorb.

Step 4: Wear gloves to prevent hands staining. Apply a small amount of self tan to your fingertips & apply to the face using small circular movements avoiding the hairline & eyebrows. Work your way down towards the neck, shoulders & décolletage, blending in smooth, circular action all the time. Move downwards along your arms, stomach, legs & feet. Bend the elbows & knees & use small amounts of tan on these dry areas. It is helpful to get someone to help applying tan to your back as it is quite tricky to reach. To complete, remove one glove & sweep the other across the back of your hand. Repeat on the other hand.

Step 5:  Allow your tan to develop for 6-8 hours without coming into contact with water. Wear loose clothing & footwear. It's always best to apply a self tan the day or night before. Once developed, you can shower but pat the skin dry gently & avoid rubbing. For a deeper, more intense tan, a second application can be applied within the next 1-2 days.


That's it! 5 simple steps to a bronzed, glowing, healthy, natural tan. Gorgeous!
