FAQs

How long does it take for the tan to develop?

For a lighter, sun-kissed tan, you can wash off the foam after one hour. For a darker and longer-lasting tan, leave it on for up to 6 hours before showering with warm water.

Can I make my tan even darker?

Yes, for the deepest tan, you can re-apply the Bondi Sands Self-Tanning Foam 30 minutes after your initial application.

Does this product protect me from the sun?

No, this product does not contain a sunscreen and does not protect against sunburn. You should always apply a separate sunscreen for sun protection.

What does it smell like?

The Self Tanning Foam is infused with Bondi Sands' signature coconut scent, providing a pleasant fragrance during and after application.

Do I need to exfoliate before applying?

Yes, it is highly recommended to use an exfoliation mitt to ensure your skin is clean and free from moisturizers before applying for an even, streak-free tan.

What should I do if I experience irritation?

If irritation, redness, or itchiness occurs, discontinue use immediately. Always perform a patch test 24 hours prior to full application to check for sensitivity.

Can I apply this to my face?

Yes, you can use any remaining tan on your application mitt to lightly smooth over your face. Be careful around the eyes.

Troubleshooting

The tan appears uneven or streaky.

Ensure your skin is thoroughly exfoliated and free from moisturizers or lotions before application. Use an application mitt and apply in long, sweeping motions rather than rubbing. Pay extra attention to elbows, knees, and ankles, using less product in these areas.

My tan isn't dark enough after application.

For a darker tan, extend the development time to the full 6 hours before showering. For the deepest tan possible, re-apply the foam 30 minutes after your initial application. Ensure you are using the 'Dark' shade variant.

Skin irritation (redness, itching) occurred after use.

Discontinue use immediately. This product requires a 24-hour patch test before full application to check for adverse reactions. Do not apply to damaged or inflamed skin. Consult a medical professional if irritation persists.

The product accidentally got into my eyes.

Rinse your eyes thoroughly and immediately with plenty of clean water. If irritation persists, seek medical attention promptly.
