The medium tanning mousse is our most natural radiant finish yet, Dark tanning mousse is perfect for a bronzed glowing finish whilst the Extra Dark tanning mouse is perfect if you are wanting to achieve your deepest tan.

Please allow 4-6 hours after tanning before showering. Your tan will last longer if you let it completely develop before showering. For ultimate results, we recommend tanning prior bedtime to let your tan develop overnight. Making sure you shower in the am.

Your Filter by Molly-Mae™ Tanning Mousse should last between 5-7 days. Ensuring your skin is properly exfoliated prior to tanning helps to prolong the tan.

Filter by Molly-Mae™ Tanning Mousse can be worn in water when showering or on holiday. We don't recommend submerging yourself in water for a long period as this can cause the colour to fade.

Our Tanning Drops are a serum consistency designed to mix in with your day or night time moisturiser for a gradual glow, whereas Spritz Me is a water-based formula to glow on the go. 

Spritz Me is our best-selling tan formula in an easy to apply all over body spritz. Water-based, light-weight, transfer free, streak free and enriched with Aloe Vera to help skin stay moisturised and hydrated. 

Spritz Me contains the same skin-loving ingredients as the rest of our Filter by Molly-Mae range. Aleo Vera and Banana Flower extract help reduce pores and keep skin moisturised and hydrated.  

We recommend allowing 4-10 hours for the tan to fully develop and before coming in contact with water. Top Tip: Spritz Me is fast drying and transfer free so you
can glow on the go. 

Your tanning mousse should last between 5-7 days. Top Tip: Make sure your skin is. properly exfoliated before tanning and once tan is on, keep skin hydrated with an oil-free moisturiser.

For the best glow we recommend mixing 4-8 drops with your moisturiser depending on the shade you would like. Top Tip: Start with less and build up to create the
perfect colour.

You can pop your luxury tanning mitt into the washing machine or add fairy liquid and warm water to your mitt and gently scrub until clean. 

The average 200ml bottle of self-tanning mousse will deliver 6-8 full body applications depending on the amount applied and the size of the area covered. 

You should never apply tanning products over SPF products. SPF will prevent the active ingredients from developing and the product will prevent the SPF from working. SPF should be applied over a developed tan after showering as tanning products themselves do not prevent sunburn or protect you from UV damage.
