It is best not to use shower gel or to shampoo your hair while rinsing the tan off as the p.H in these products can interfere with your tan developing.

In the morning, mix half a cup of bicarbonate of soda, the juice of one lemon and two tablespoons of TOUGH STUFF in a bowl. Use this mixture to exfoliate on dry skin. Rinse well in the shower. Cocoa Brown 1 HOUR TAN works with your skin’s own natural skin tones by producing melanoidins (pigment) in the upper layers of your skin. 1 HOUR TAN fades over approximately 7 days as your skin naturally sheds the upper skin cells. The rate at which your skin naturally desquamates is different for every person and depends on many factors but the average amount of time it takes for pigmented skin cells to be naturally exfoliated is between 7 and 10 days. Skin in areas like your face and hands however, replace themselves much faster – 3-5 days on average. To ensure that your 1 HOUR TAN fades evenly, I recommend exfoliating daily from about day two or three after you have applied the tan. It’s a common mistake not to exfoliate after tanning if you would like your tan to fade evenly then I highly recommend gradually exfoliating it off rather than trying to scrub it all off in one go on day 7. My top tip for removing fake tan is to apply a layer of body oil before bed. In the morning take the juice of half a lemon, half a cup of bread soda and mix in a bowl with two to three tablespoons of TOUGH STUFF. Use a a scrub on dry skin and then rinse off in shower.In the couple of days leading up to applying your tan exfoliate your skin daily using exfoliating gloves or Cocoa Brown TOUGH STUFF in the shower. Moisturise your skin well everyday too – ideally in the morning and evening. On the day itself that you are applying your 1 HOUR TAN, DON’T exfoliate. DO moisturise using Cocoa Brown Chocolate Whip Oil-Free Body Moisturiser. Ensure your skin is free from all other lotions, potions, perfumes or deodorants as these may interfere with the development of your tan. Apply a coat of nail varnish to nails so that the colour guide doesn’t stain them. Hands, feet, knees and elbows must have a layer of Chocolate Whip as these areas are particularly prone to dryness and self tan can cling to dry skin.

Cocoa Brown 1 Hour Tan Mousse 150ml - Boots

Start gently exfoliating every day in the shower with TOUGH STUFF on the second day after you have applied your 1 HOUR TAN and continue exfoliating every day after that. Oddly, my favourite thing about this tan was its moisturising aspect. Sure, it gives you an even, natural-looking tan, but you feel so soft and ;lovely after using it. Streak-free and effortless to apply, this lightweight formula smooths onto the skin for a healthy glowing finish that lasts for up to seven days.

Some products give an immediate tanned colour upon application – which is called a guide colour – while the long-lasting tan colour develops underneath. It’s normally a darker bronze shade and shows where the product has been applied to prevent missed patches or streakiness. The guide colour is then washed off after a few hours to reveal the final tan. We may not be able to go on holiday this summer, but you can still achieve a sun-kissed complexion with the help of a little fake tan. Faking it also helps eliminate damage from the sun’s harmful UV rays, which can cause premature skin ageing (fine lines and wrinkles) as well as skin cancer. This is a fast-drying, creamy mousse from Vita Liberata, who say that three applications will leave you with a tanned colour for two to three weeks. It achieved full marks in our lab test and our panel of beauty testers found their natural golden tan was not streaky or patchy, and lasted well. Some testers said there was a light fake tan scent during application, but most noted this dispersed after washing off the guide colour, resulting in a four out of five scent rating. Exfoliate thoroughly every day with a scrub in the shower, for two or three days before applying tan. NB: The colour you see in the mousse is a colour guide so that you can see where you are applying the tan. DHA – the active tanning ingredient is colourless. Once you rinse the colour guide off in the shower your tan will continue to develop and your skin colour will gradually deepen over a period of a few hours.

The upper layers of the skin is thinner on your face, chest and shins than other areas of the body. DHA, the active tanning agent in self-tanners works only on the upper layers of the skin so will naturally be lighter in these areas on most people. To accelerate the action on DHA on your skin you can apply a light layer of lemon juice to your chest and shins immediately before applying self-tan. Wait 1, 2 or 3 hours depending on how deep you like your tan and then gently rinse mousse off in the shower. Cocoa Brown Tan Love Medium Mousse is a floral-scented tan that can be used on both your face & body, as the moisturising ingredients are kind to your skin. After rinsing Cocoa Brown 1 Hour Tan off, your tan will continue to develop into a natural Cocoa Brown tan for up to 3 hours & lasts from 5-7 days. You can achieve a deeper, richer self tan by leaving the product on your skin for 3 hours before rinsing it off. The Rose Gold Goddess has a dark shimmer which will give a more tanned look where it is applied. As the skin on the chest and shins is thinner that the rest of the body, it may not go as dark as other areas when using Cocoa Brown 1 HOUR TAN. In this case, using some of the Rose Gold Goddess on the chest and shins can deppen the colour and give you a tan boost! I’m that basic bitch who wants to be as tanned as humanly possible, so these extra dark options are unreal.Despite being a new mum, she started her business and handled her own PR. She reached out to beauty bloggers around the country and sent them her first product. Use a flat head stippling makeup brush (Cocoa Brown T1 Tontouring Brush) to apply tan to hands and feet.

Measure around the slimmest part of your natural waistline - above your navel and below your ribcage. Don’t forget to apply sun cream when going outside, too. Fake tan doesn’t include sun protection, so always apply a high SPF sun lotion to prevent skin damage and sunburn. Wait 1, 2 or 3 hours depending on how deep you like your tan and then gently rinse mousse off in the shower. Wear loose, dark clothing while you are waiting to shower as product may transfer to fabrics. Cocoa Brown Original 1hr Tan Mousse Ultra Dark (150ml) produces beautifully bronzed, radiant skin in just 1 hour.

In the lab, we used a digieye machine to take images of fake tan on our testers’ arms to assess the patchiness of the tan over a one-week period. The higher the score, the more even the tan.
