FAQs
How often should I use the serum?
For a light golden glow, apply once a week. For a deeper bronzed look, apply twice a week. You can adjust based on your desired depth of tan.
Can I use this on my face?
This serum is designed for the entire body. While it contains beneficial skincare ingredients, it is formulated for body application. For the face, consider a product specifically designed for facial skin.
How long does the tan last?
The tan typically lasts for 5-7 days, depending on your skin type and aftercare routine. Exfoliating after day five and reapplying will help maintain your glow.
Is the scent strong?
The serum has a delicately fragranced, signature unisex blend that is soft and not overpowering.
Do I need to wash it off?
No, the serum is designed to be left on the skin to develop into a tan. Wash your hands thoroughly immediately after application.
What if I have sensitive skin?
The serum is infused with hydrating and soothing ingredients like hyaluronic acid and aloe vera. However, it's always recommended to perform a patch test before full application if you have particularly sensitive skin.
Troubleshooting
Uneven or streaky application
Ensure you are using a tanning mitt for even distribution and applying in circular motions. Glide any excess product over hands and feet for a natural blend. Exfoliate thoroughly before application.
Tan fading too quickly
Ensure you are exfoliating after day five and reapplying as needed. Avoid harsh scrubbing or long, hot baths which can accelerate fading.
Product not developing a tan
Confirm you are using the correct application technique and allowing sufficient time for development. Ensure you are not washing the product off too soon after application.
Transfer onto clothing
Allow the serum to dry completely before dressing. Wear loose, dark clothing for the first few hours after application. Wash tanned items separately.
