Full details
This guide is for individuals seeking a natural-looking, buildable tan without the commitment of a spray tan or the intensity of a darker self-tanner.

While it provides a customizable color, users should be aware that achieving a deep tan may require consistent application over several days.

FAQs
How long does it take to see results?
Color typically begins to develop within a few hours of application. For a noticeable glow, consistent daily application over 2-3 days is generally recommended. A deeper tan may take up to a week of regular use.
Can I use this on my face?
While formulated for the body, some users use it on their face. However, it is specifically designed for the thicker skin on the body. For facial tanning, consider a product formulated for the face, or test on a small, inconspicuous area first.
How often should I apply the lotion?
For gradual tanning, apply daily until your desired shade is achieved, then reduce to 2-3 times a week for maintenance. Alternatively, apply every few days as needed to maintain a light glow.
Will this product stain my clothes?
Allow the lotion to dry completely (usually 10-15 minutes) before dressing to minimize the risk of transfer. Wearing loose, dark clothing immediately after application is advised.
What ingredients help soothe the skin?
The lotion is enriched with Aloe vera and Guarana, known for their hydrating and soothing properties.
How do I prepare my skin before application?
For the most even results, exfoliate your skin thoroughly 24 hours before application and ensure skin is clean and dry when applying the lotion.
Is this product suitable for sensitive skin?
The formula is described as 'skin-kind' and enriched with soothing ingredients like Aloe vera, suggesting it is gentle. However, as with any new product, a patch test is recommended for those with very sensitive skin.
Troubleshooting
Uneven color or streaks
Ensure skin is thoroughly exfoliated and moisturized (especially dry areas like elbows and knees) before application. Apply a thinner layer to these areas. If streaks appear, gently buff with a damp cloth or await the next shower for a more even fade, then reapply carefully.
Product not developing color
Ensure you are applying to clean, dry skin and allowing adequate time for absorption before dressing. Consistent daily application is key for gradual tanners. Check the product's expiration date.
Skin feels sticky after application
Apply a thinner layer of lotion and allow more time for it to fully absorb into the skin before putting on clothing. Ensure you are not applying in excessive humidity.
Scent is too strong
Allow the lotion to fully dry before dressing. If the scent is still bothersome, consider applying in the morning and showering before bed, or using a very light layer.
