TIPS & TRICKS

• Exfoliate first, but if you’re using a scrub, ensure it’s free of any oils or use an exfoliating glove instead to ensure there’s no barrier between your skin and the tan colour.

• A small amount of moisturiser to the hairline, eyebrows and any dry patches on your body prior to starting will ensure colour isn’t patchy or obvious afterwards.

• For foams or creams, always use a tanning mitt to apply your tan for an even finish. Apply to the centre of the mitt and then clench your fist so the product is distributed evenly before applying to skin. • To reach your back, slide a tanning mitt onto a spatula and secure with a hair tie before applying product and rubbing it in. • Leave your elbows, knees, hands and feet until last and use the excess left on your mitt after doing your legs or body rather than adding any more product.

• To tan your face, use tanning drops you can add to your regular moisturiser to custom blend a subtle colour that won’t clog pores and cause acne. Alternatively, use a dense face brush to buff on a tinted fake tanning product for even coverage.
