The dreaded tan removal 😫
We’ve all been there! Our tan begins to fade or it’s that time of the week where we’re ready to apply a fresh coat of tan and we automatically go into procrastination mode because the thought of spending hours removing our tan is just an absolute nightmare.
I’m about to make your life a little easier when it comes to removing your tan (Hooray!)
Here is the best way I have found to remove your fake tan.
-
Make sure you’re not trying to remove your tan too early.
Typically tans are meant to last up to 10+ days (no, it wont be a deep dark tan come 10 days, but you should have a medium-light wash of colour still on the skin). If you’re trying to remove your fake tan too early, it will be really difficult to remove the tan. The best time to wait to remove your tan is on day 7+

Apply a tan remover over your body 5 minutes before exfoliating
Tan removers are made of ingredients that help break down the fake tan from the skin. We have an amazing tan remover full of skin loving ingredients that will help remove your fake tan while simultaneously hydrating, soothing and decongesting your skin.

Use an exfoliating mitt instead of scrubs
Exfoliating mitts are better at removing fake tan than a scrub. The reason for this is when applying a sugar or coffee scrub onto the skin, there is not precise application and the scrub is made up of oils as well that move the gritty sugar or coffee granules around your skin to spots you may no longer need them to be. Exfoliating mitts have a larger surface area to easily remove the bulk of your tan and can be used in precise areas.
And that’s it! It’s really that simple.
The biggest tip to take away from this, is to not remove your fake tan too early.
Happy tanning (or tan removing in this case lol) xx
