A smooth cream with a discreet coconut oil fragrance. Self-tanning cream does not provide sun protection. It can be applied to the body and skin alike and does not require sun exposure.
The cream will cause the skin to colour in a harmless process in the upper layers of the skin within a few hours of application. For people with fair skin or those who want a discreet tan, the percentage in DHA can be reduced by half by supplementing the percentage of water in phase B accordingly.
We recommend exfoliating the skin (exfoliation) beforehand to achieve an even colour. Apply a moderate amount to the skin and try to distribute it as evenly as possible in circular motions. Insist on even distribution, being careful not to apply twice to the same area. On areas with thicker skin (knees, elbows) apply a thinner layer. Wash your hands thoroughly after using the cream. The skin gradually returns to its natural colour as the upper layers exfoliate.
