FAQs
How long does self tan mousse last?
Most self tan mousses last 5–7 days before fading. Exfoliating before application and moisturising daily helps extend the colour.
Should I use a tanning mitt?
Yes — always use a tanning mitt to avoid streaky palms and to blend the mousse evenly.
Which self tan is best for pale skin?
Isle of Paradise Light and St. Tropez Light are both excellent for fair skin tones — they build gradually so you can control the depth of colour.
