How do I prep for tan?

If you want to get long lasting results from your TAN TRUTH tan we recommend:

Tip 1: If hair removal is part of your routine we recommend shaving, waxing, epilating (etc) at least 24 hours before applying self-tan. This ensures a more even tan, leaving time for your pores to close pre-tan.

Tip 2: Exfoliate. We’ve said it once and we’ll say it again, exfoliate! Create the most fresh skin base for your tan with our Pre Tan Exfoliating Scrub. This means your skin will be smooth and perfect for tanning – it helps slow down the fading process too.

Tip 3: Moisturising is a vital step to maintaining a long lasting tan, but we recommend not to moisturise directly before tanning. It’s best to prep the stain-prone areas of your body before tanning aka your elbows and knees with moisturiser but leave the rest of your skin squeaky clean.

Now glow glow glow!

How do I tan my hands and feet?

We know these are some tricky areas when it comes to self-tanning but we’ve got you covered!

Before tanning, apply a light layer of (oil free) moisturiser to hands, feet, elbows and knees because these areas absorb tan more readily.

We recommend using your mitt or tanning applicator on the rest of your body and using the excess product left on the mitt to swipe across the tops of your hands (in the classic claw shape) and the tops of your feet and toes.

How long will my tan last?

All skin behaves in different ways, that’s what is so amazing about it! Our tanning products are created to last up to 5-10 days on the skin depending on skin type.

You can prolong your glow by:
• Avoiding hot water or chlorinated water
• Using TAN TRUTH Tan Extending Moisturiser

What is the best way to remove my tan?

TAN TRUTH gradually fades as the colour washes off but if you want to strip your skin of all fake tan then use our Tan Removing Mousse.

It’s simple to use, apply generously to dry skin at least 3 days after application of self-tan. Leave to soak into the skin for 5 minutes then shower it off using warm water and a face cloth or exfoliating gloves. Alternatively, you can wipe off the skin using a dry towel and then rinse.

Does the TAN TRUTH range contain any SPF?

No, our products do not offer any protection against UVA or UVB. We believe in achieving a beautiful bronzed glow without the harmful rays!

Can I use TAN TRUTH self-tan products when I am pregnant?

Self-tan products are safe to use during pregnancy, however we always recommend consulting with your doctor to ensure this is 100% safe to do so as hormonal changes during pregnancy may effect your skin.

Should I perform a patch test?

We recommend that anyone with sensitive skin perform a 24 hour patch test.
