FAQs

How often should I apply the Endless Summer Gradual Tan Moisturiser?

Apply daily until your desired level of color is achieved. Once the desired tan is reached, you can reduce application to a few times a week to maintain the color.

Can I use this on my face?

While formulated for the body, some users may choose to use it on their face. However, it is recommended to perform a patch test first, and to apply very sparingly due to the sensitivity of facial skin.

How long does it take to see results?

The tan develops gradually with daily use. You will start to see a subtle glow after the first application, with color intensifying over 3-5 days of consistent application.

What should I do if I get streaks?

For minor streaks, you can try to gently buff the area with a soft cloth or a gentle exfoliating mitt. For significant streaks, you may need to wait for the tan to fade or use a tan remover.

Does this product contain SPF?

No, the James Read Endless Summer Gradual Tan Moisturiser does not contain SPF. It is recommended to use a separate sunscreen for sun protection.

How do I remove the tan if I don't like it?

The tan fades naturally over several days. For quicker removal, gentle exfoliation or a dedicated tan remover product can be used.

What is the scent like?

It has a delicately fragranced, signature unisex blend of uplifting bergamot and sunlit florals, softened by creamy sandalwood and smooth vanilla.

Troubleshooting

Uneven color or streaks

Ensure skin is thoroughly exfoliated and hydrated 24 hours prior to application. Apply in smooth, even strokes, blending carefully over dry areas like elbows, knees, and ankles. Wash hands immediately after use.

Tan is too light or not developing

Apply the product daily as directed. Ensure a consistent application across all areas. The color will build gradually over several days of use.

Product feels sticky after application

Allow adequate drying time before dressing. Ensure you are not applying an excessive amount; a thin, even layer is sufficient. Avoid tight clothing immediately after application.

Product has an unusual smell

This is unlikely with a new product. Ensure the product is stored correctly. If the smell persists or changes significantly, discontinue use.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Application Steps:

  1. Preparation: Exfoliate and shave skin 24 hours before the first application to ensure an even base.
  2. Application: Apply the moisturiser evenly to clean, dry skin, starting from the legs and moving upwards in sections, just as you would a regular body lotion. Pay attention to an even distribution.
  3. Extremities: Use any remaining product on hands and feet, blending carefully to avoid darker patches.
  4. Hygiene: Wash hands thoroughly immediately after application to prevent staining.
  5. Building Color: Apply daily until your desired shade of tan is achieved.

Care:

  • Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
  • Ensure the cap is securely closed after each use to maintain product freshness.
  • The product is suitable for all skin types. Perform a patch test if you have sensitive skin.

Compatibility: This product is designed for external use on the body and hands. It is compatible with most standard skincare routines, but avoid using other exfoliating products immediately after application as this may remove the developing tan.
