You will begin to see results around the 4 hours, but your tan will continue to develop for up to 24 hours after application.

    Tanning Water Medium to Dark
    BEST thing ever.

    I have been recently struggling with post acne scars and some levels of skin reactivity and because of all of my retinols and treatments, SPF was a must BUT that means my face is a whole lot paler than my body. I tried this water with the brush and not only did my acne prone skin literally love it, but I’m on my second full bottle and I have never received so many compliments about my skin. In the past week of being back in my home town 3 separate people have told me my skin looks “radiant and glowing”, something my acne journey led me to think I would NEVER be hearing. As someone who is naturally olive toned (I use dark medium in the water), I love being able to match my face tan to my natural body tan and this product genuinely helps me feel like my most genuine and natural self, just a bit more glowy. I’m OBSESSED and have already gotten all of my friends to use this too.

    Amazing product!

    I’m in awe of how great this product works! After using the tanning water, I have the perfect tanned glow and my skin feels so soft and healthy. I have very sensitive skin and the tanning water is so gentle and actually helps calm any irritation. I’ll definitely be a lifetime customer, I love it!

    Love the product

    The tanning water is fantastic, I use the brush and it goes on lightly with no mess. . I have white or as I like to call it, Platinum hair so I am very careful not to get any on my hair as I did have yellowing from the product one time.
