Reviews

Loved by our first testers.

  • Looks natural.

    Each base has a colour-correcting tint. Green helps counteract pink undertones and violet helps counteract yellow and golden ones, so your tan looks like your skin, not orange.

  • Easy to use.

    Pump onto a tanning mitt and blend in circles. It dries instantly with no sticky stage, it's unscented with no fake tan smell, and it works on face and body.

  • Excellent results.

    A streak-free finish that won't transfer onto clothes or sheets. You choose how deep it goes: shower after about 1 hour for light, 2 for medium, or 3+ for the darkest result.

Each base has a colour-correcting tint. Green helps counteract pink undertones, and violet helps counteract yellow and golden undertones. Choosing the base that matches your undertone is the best way to avoid an orange or brassy finish.

Medium Dark gives a natural, sun-kissed depth. Ultra Dark gives the deepest result. You can also control depth with timing: shower after about 1 hour for light, 2 hours for medium, or 3+ hours for the darkest result.

The formula is instant drying, so there's no sticky stage. For an even finish, exfoliate 24 to 48 hours before, always use a mitt, blend in circles, and go lightly over elbows, knees, ankles, feet and hands.

No. It dries instantly and is made not to transfer onto clothes or sheets.

No. It's fragrance-free and unscented, with odour-eliminating technology to stop that fake tan smell developing.
