FAQs
How long does the tan last?
The tan typically lasts between 5-7 days, depending on individual skin type, aftercare, and exfoliation rate.
Can I use this on my face?
While designed for the body, a small amount can be used on the face if desired, but it is recommended to use a product specifically formulated for facial skin for optimal results and safety.
How long until I see the full color?
The tan develops over 4-8 hours after application. The initial color guide is for application purposes only. Rinse off the guide after the recommended development time to reveal the true color.
Will this product stain my clothes?
The mousse has a tinted guide color that can transfer onto clothing before it is rinsed off. It is recommended to wear dark, loose-fitting clothing after application and to allow the tan to dry completely.
Is this product suitable for sensitive skin?
The formula is enriched with skin-friendly botanicals. However, it's always recommended to perform a patch test on a small area of skin 24 hours before full application, especially if you have sensitive skin.
How do I remove the tan if I make a mistake?
For immediate mistakes during application, use a damp cloth or tanning mitt to gently wipe and blend. For full removal, after the tan has developed, soak in a warm bath and gently exfoliate the skin.
Troubleshooting
Uneven or streaky application
Ensure skin was properly exfoliated and moisturized in dry areas prior to application. Use a tanning mitt and apply in smooth, sweeping motions. Ensure consistent pressure and blending.
Tan fading patchily
Exfoliate skin regularly and moisturize well, especially after the initial tan has faded. Avoid abrasive scrubbing or very hot showers which can accelerate fading.
Product not dispensing or sputtering
Ensure the can is held upright and shaken vigorously before use. Check that the nozzle is clear of any dried product. Try cleaning the nozzle gently with a damp cloth.
Orange or unnatural color
This can sometimes occur if the product is not fully developed or if skin was not prepared correctly. Ensure you've followed all prep steps. For future applications, consider a patch test or a lighter shade if this occurs.
