Tans will be darker in Manchester and Liverpool though! Choose a gradual tan in light or medium. You can also mix your gradual tanner with a normal moisturiser for a softer finish, which will take the edge off. How many times a week should you apply fake tan? Should you let it fade before you reapply? If you want to keep the colour topped up in-between, use an instant tan and then you will still have the same appearance.
Tropez was perfect when we did the weekly tans for The Voice and The X Factor as it fades really evenly. Do you have any tips for a longer lasting tan? If you want a really quick dark tan can you just apply instant tan twice?
Using instant tan you can build layers to create a better depth of colour — when I was working on London Fashion Week we were applying up to five layers of instant tan to the models. Otherwise you can use a dark instant tan , if you don't have time for all the layers. The steps to take for an A-list worthy tan: Pre-tan: You should always ensure you have removed any tan left over from your last application.
You can do this by ensuring an even fade and removing tan with a gentle body polish on the fourth or fifth day of the tan. Beauty prep: If you're waxing or shaving, ensure this is carried out 24 hours before so that the skin has calmed and any wax has been removed.
Exfoliate the night before a tan to remove any dead skin cells and ensure the skins surface is even. Pay special attention to your hands, elbows, knees and feet as these dry areas tend to absorb tan the most. Try our Tan Finder to find your perfect match!

Tropez formulations is Dihydroxyacetone also known as DHA , which is derived from plant sources such as wheat and rapeseed. This is combined with a unique blend of skin-conditioning ingredients including Vitamin E that protect and hydrate the skin whilst providing a natural-looking tan. The DHA reacts chemically with the amino acids found in the upper epidermis top layer of the skin, producing different tones of coloration from yellow to brown. Each person has a different level of amino acids which is why we all naturally tan slightly differently in the sun.
In the same way, every self tan result is individual to you and tailors to your individual skin tone. DHA should be left to develop on the skin between 4 and 8 hours for optimum results. I exclaimed to my flatmate 'how can it develop after I've showered it off?
But it did, and it does. I went to bed with my skin looking dull and lifeless thanks, lockdown and woke up glowing. So much so that my colleagues commented on it during our morning Zoom meeting. My usual top three fake tan gripes are: smell, stickiness and shade.

The results were really quite seamless, if slightly underwhelming. While I didn't achieve the dramatic 'deep tan' results I was expecting to see, I had no streaks, no stains on my clothes or bed sheets and there was none of that usual self-tan smell.
Instead, I was left with a lovely extra 'glow'. Tropez spray tan performed every minute, St. Tropez is the leading Tanning brand chosen by influencers, celebrities, professionals and beauty editors alike. Try our Tan Finder to find your perfect match!
