FAQs

What does SPF30 mean?

SPF30 (Sun Protection Factor 30) means the product blocks approximately 97% of UVB rays. It allows you to stay in the sun up to 30 times longer without burning compared to unprotected skin, provided it's applied correctly and generously.

How often should I reapply the Tanning Milk?

For optimal protection and tan development, reapply generously every two hours, or more frequently if you have been swimming, sweating, or towel drying.

Can I use this product on my face?

Yes, you can use the Lancaster Sun Beauty Velvet Tanning Milk SPF30 on your face. However, if you have particularly sensitive facial skin or specific facial concerns, a dedicated facial sunscreen might be preferred.

Does this product provide an instant tan?

No, this product does not provide an instant tan. It contains a unique tanning activator that helps stimulate your skin's natural melanin production, leading to a more luminous, gorgeous, and healthy tan over time with sun exposure.

Will this Tanning Milk prevent me from getting a sunburn?

When used correctly and reapplied frequently, SPF30 significantly reduces your risk of sunburn. No sunscreen offers 100% protection, so it's always advisable to seek shade during peak sun hours.

Is this product water-resistant?

While the product offers protection during normal use, specific water resistance claims and duration are not provided. It is always recommended to reapply immediately after swimming or excessive sweating to maintain effective sun protection.

How does the unique tanning activator work?

The tanning activator is designed to optimize your skin's natural tanning process. It works by stimulating the production of melanin, the pigment responsible for skin color, which results in a more efficient, radiant, and even tan.

Troubleshooting

Uneven or streaky tan development

Ensure thorough and even application of the milk, massaging it in completely. Exfoliating your skin prior to initial use can help create a smoother surface for a more uniform tan.

Skin feeling dry despite using the product

Apply the tanning milk generously and reapply often. Consider using a dedicated after-sun moisturizer in the evenings to further replenish skin hydration.

Experiencing sunburn even after applying the product

This typically indicates insufficient application or infrequent reapplication. Ensure you apply a generous amount to all exposed skin and reapply every two hours, or immediately after swimming, sweating, or towel drying. For very intense sun or prolonged exposure, consider seeking shade or using a higher SPF product.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Effective SPF30 Protection: Offers strong defense against UVA/UVB rays.
  • Promotes Natural, Healthy Tan: The tanning activator helps achieve an enhanced, even tan.
  • Hydrating Formula: Keeps skin moisturized, reducing the drying effects of the sun.
  • Anti-Aging Properties: Helps to protect skin from photo-aging.
  • Pleasant Application: Velvety texture is comfortable and leaves a radiant finish.

Cons

  • Requires Frequent Reapplication: As with all sunscreens, reapplication every two hours or after swimming/sweating is essential for continuous protection.
  • Potential for Uneven Tan: Requires careful and even application to avoid streaks or patchy tanning results.
  • SPF30 Limitation: For extremely sensitive skin or very prolonged, intense sun exposure, a higher SPF might be preferred by some users.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup (Application Instructions)

  1. Preparation: Ensure skin is clean and dry. For best tanning results, consider exfoliating your skin a day before initial application to create a smooth canvas.
  2. Application: Apply a generous amount of Lancaster Sun Beauty Velvet Tanning Milk SPF30 to all exposed skin areas, ensuring even coverage. Do this at least 20 minutes before sun exposure.
  3. Massage: Gently massage the milk into your skin until fully absorbed. Pay attention to areas like knees, elbows, and ankles for uniform coverage.
  4. Reapplication: Reapply frequently to maintain protection, especially after swimming, perspiring, or toweling off. A general guideline is every two hours.

Compatibility

  • Skin Types: This product is generally suitable for all skin types. Its hydrating properties are beneficial for maintaining skin comfort.
  • Usage: Designed for body use. While it can be used on the face, some users with highly sensitive facial skin might prefer a dedicated facial sunscreen.

Care

  • Storage: Store the product in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and excessive heat, to maintain its efficacy and texture.
