FAQs
How long does the tan typically last?
The tan usually lasts for 5-7 days, depending on your skin type and how well you care for it. Daily moisturizing and avoiding harsh exfoliants can help prolong the color.
Can I use this on my face?
While designed for the body, some users apply it to their face. If you do, use a significantly smaller amount and blend meticulously, especially around the hairline and eyebrows. Consider a product specifically formulated for the face for best results.
How long after application should I shower?
You should wait at least 6-8 hours after application before showering. This allows the self-tanning agents to fully develop on your skin.
Does this product have a strong smell?
Self-tanning products can have a distinct scent as they develop. The 2bTanned mousse is formulated to minimize this, but a light scent may be noticeable during the development phase.
What is the best way to store the mousse?
Store the mousse in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Ensure the cap is tightly secured after each use.
Is the shade 'Medium to Dark' suitable for everyone?
This shade is ideal for those who desire a noticeable, deep tan. If you have very fair skin or prefer a lighter glow, you might consider testing on a small area first or opting for a lighter shade if available.
Troubleshooting
Uneven or streaky tan
Ensure skin was properly exfoliated and moisturized on dry areas before application. Use a tanning mitt and blend thoroughly. For existing streaks, a gentle exfoliation can help fade them.
Tan is too light
Allow the initial application to fully develop. For a deeper shade, apply a second layer of mousse 24 hours after the first application.
Product transfer onto clothing
Allow the mousse to dry completely before dressing. Wear loose, dark clothing for the first 24 hours after application. Wash stained clothing according to care label instructions.
Tanned palms or soles
Wash hands thoroughly with soap and water immediately after application. For soles of feet, apply the mousse very sparingly or protect them with socks. If tanning occurs, gentle exfoliation can reduce intensity.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Preparation is Key: Exfoliate your skin thoroughly 24 hours before application to remove dead skin cells and ensure an even tan. Moisturize dry areas such as elbows, knees, ankles, and wrists to prevent the tanner from absorbing too quickly and looking patchy.
Application: Apply the mousse to a tanning mitt. Use sweeping, circular motions to apply the product to your body, starting from the legs and working your way up. Blend carefully around the hairline, ankles, and wrists. Wash hands thoroughly with soap and water immediately after application to avoid tanning the palms.
Development: Allow the mousse to dry completely before dressing. Avoid showering, sweating, or strenuous activity for at least 6-8 hours while the tan develops. Wear loose, dark clothing to prevent transfer.
Care: To maintain your tan, moisturize daily and avoid prolonged soaking in water, hot baths, or swimming pools, as these can accelerate fading. For longer-lasting color, consider touch-ups on faded areas.
