Product Information

It goes without saying that the paler your skin, the more impact a fake tan will have, but they have benefits for darker skin tones too.

They'll develop over just a few hours to leave you looking beautifully bronzed. How long will my tan last for?Another time, I mixed the same amount of tanner into Facetheory’s Relaxing Night Cream but used way too much moisturizer. Though the amount of cream slowed down the application and absorption process, I was pleasantly surprised to see that the drops provided the same tanning effect and weren’t diluted or made streaky by the moisturizer. I’d say these are fool-proof. Just make sure you wash your hands right after you're done applying the drops to your face, as you may run into an issue with them staining your hands. The tan is, in fact, customizable

You can also combine the drops with your daily moisturiser for a lighter finish,’ Michaella Bolder, St. Tropez’s tanning and skincare expert, explains. ‘Avoid using any exfoliating products directly before applying tan and don't use it in conjunction with vitamin A or retinol.

Bronzing drops may not be the most obvious product to add to your skincare routine, but trust us when we tell you that you won't regret doing so. After all, a sun-kissed glow is a never a bad idea, especially during the summer. And considering that more often than not, the skin on our face doesn't get tanned as much as the rest of our body, it's fair to say that anyone can benefit from a bronzy boost. So whether you're prepping for a White-Lotus-inspired girls' getaway or you're simply looking to diversify your everyday look with a J-Lo-inspired glow, consider a bottle of bronzing drops your new best friend.

Not only are face tanning drops easy to apply, help to achieve that bronzed radiance, and are more delicate for the sensitive skin on your face, they can also double up as a moisturiser as some contain aloe vera and vitamin E. Face tanners are designed specifically for this area as they contain skincare ingredients targeted to help treat our daily concerns, strengthen the skin's barrier and add a natural golden finish, rather than the deeper tan result you often get with body products,” Bolder says. How do you apply self-tan drops? If you’re craving a tan though, the good news is that you don't need to risk damaging your skin to achieve a subtle, believable bronze, as face tanning drops are an easy and effective way to get some golden colour.Unlike fake tans, liquid bronzers work similar to a complexion makeup product, meaning they don't stain your skin. All they do is add saturated bronzing pigments such as iron oxide and mica (that can also include shimmer for that highlighter-looking finish) that are buildable, easy to blend and safe for your skin. With summer in full swing, it's especially important to protect your skin from the sun — no exceptions.

Wait a few moments before applying your moisturiser,” advises Bolder. “If you'd prefer a lighter finish, you can also combine tanning drops with your daily moisturiser. Just avoid using any exfoliating products directly before applying tan and don't use fake tan in conjunction with vitamin A or retinol.”Fake tan brands are also steadily branching out with a wider shade range. Bolder believes there are some real benefits on darker skin tones when adding a few tanning drops into the mix: Bronzing drops give the illusion of a sun-kissed tan,” says Sephora beauty director Helen Dagdag. She says they tend to have a concentrated, buildable bronze pigment that you can mix with your skin care or foundation for an instant glow. “The best part about bronzing drops is that they have beneficial skin care ingredients and are totally customizable,” she says. To ensure an even tan, squeeze 2-6 drops into the palm of your hand, then sweep around your face using your fingers as you would your serum.
