Anybody that has ever woken up like a piece of streaky bacon on the day of an event will realise the value in a good tan. Second only to the quality of the tan is the selection and application process, Choose Your Tan Tone is the first step. Which Tan, Treat, Hydrate shade is right for you?
Your Tan, much like your foundation, is personal choice & is based on your own personal preferences, ifyou’re a confident faux tanner please choose your favourite TAN TREAT & HYDRATE shade based onyour desired end result . However, for newer OR less confident tanners we recommend you start with Medium as it will naturally work with the Melanin in your skin and give you a gorgeous Glow, You canthen work your way up to the darker shades if that’s your preference or simply apply 2 layers of medium !
PREPARATION IS THE KEY TO FLAWLESS FAUX TAN
Wax 48 hours or shave 24 hours before tanning to allow skin to recover and pores to close.
Exfoliate gently 24 hours before tanning. After exfoliating moisturise your skin.
Shower at least 30 minutes before application. This will enable your skin to return to its natural PH balance.
Do not apply body lotion all over or use deodorant before applying your tan. Make sure your underarms are deodorant free and avoid using any oil-based products, as they can leave traces on the skin.
Apply a little moisturiser sparingly to the feet, back of the heel, elbows, cuticles and hands only. This will act as a barrier and prevent build-up of tan on these drier areas.
Use our BeautiEdit mitt to apply your faux tan. The double lined liquid proof barrier helps to ensure your hands remain stain free whilst your tan glides on evenly for the perfect self-tan application.
Using your mitt apply tan in a circular motion starting from your ankles upwards, on those drier areas that have been pre-moisturised use tan sparingly . Our natural guide colour will ensure that you can evenly distribute the tan all over your body whilst guaranteeing a streak free, perfect finish every time.
Avoid vigorous exercise for 4-6 hrs.
For best results we recommend you leave your tan overnight to develop
Moisturise your tan every day to lock in hydration and enjoy your BeautiEdit faux tan glow for 5-7 days before our 3 in 1 formula fades evenly away!
