How to achieve the best results from your 10 MIN Express Self-Tanning Smoothing Body Mask?Updated 2 months ago

Achieving a flawless, natural-looking tan starts with proper preparation, application, and aftercare. Follow these tips to ensure the perfect finish every time. 

1. Skin Preparation 

• Exfoliate your skin before tanning to remove dead skin cells and create a smooth surface. 

• Moisturise dry areas such as elbows, knees, ankles, hands, and feet to prevent patchiness. 

• Avoid washing or shaving immediately before application — wait 2–3 hours after showering or shaving to allow your skin to fully recover natural oils. 

• Avoid washing your hair right before applying, as shampoo and conditioner can leave a barrier on your skin. 

2. Application Tips 

• Apply the product with an applicator mitt for even coverage. 

• Use a generous amount and work in sections, using long, smooth strokes to evenly saturate the skin. 

• Avoid over-blending — thick products are designed to sit like a mask on the skin to achieve optimal colour. 

• Take extra care to lightly blend over joints and edges to prevent darker patches. 

3. Leave-On Time 

• Follow the recommended development time for your chosen product: 10 minutes, 2 hours, or 8 hours, depending on the formula. 

• Leaving the product on slightly longer can help ensure your skin fully interacts with the DHA for the best results. 

4. Aftercare 

• Avoid water, sweating, or friction during the development period. 

• After rinsing, pat the skin dry rather than rubbing to maintain an even finish. 

• Moisturise daily to prolong your tan's longevity. 

By following these steps, you’ll achieve a smooth, streak-free, and natural-looking Dark tan every time.
