FAKE TAN FOR MEN THAT LOOKS NATURAL
A common concern is that self tanner will look orange or obvious on men. Our mousse was developed to create natural-looking color that complements men's skin tones while remaining buildable, easy to apply, and natural as it fades. It dries quickly, blends seamlessly, and leaves you looking like you spent time outdoors, not in a bottle.
MENS FACE TANNER FOR DAILY USE
When it comes to your face, you need a product designed to be gentle yet effective. Pair this mousse with our Face Tanning Mist for natural color that is safe for daily application and helps maintain a clear, even look. Together, they deliver a seamless tan from head to toe.
TANNING SPRAY FOR MEN WHO WANT FAST RESULTS
If you want a quick refresh or a lighter, on-the-go option, our Tanning Mist makes it easy. Just a few sprays deliver even coverage and keep your tan looking sharp between mousse applications.
HOW TO USE
For the best results, exfoliate before applying to create a smooth canvas for an even, longer-lasting tan. Apply with our Applicator Mitt using circular motions until fully blended. While this product creates a bronzed appearance, it does not contain sunscreen, so always apply SPF when exposed to sunlight.

Using a tanning mitt, apply the mousse in circular motions one section at a time. Blend carefully around hands, feet, elbows, knees, and ankles.
Step 3: Allow Color to Develop
Allow the mousse to develop for 1–8 hours depending on your desired depth of color. Avoid water, sweating, and tight clothing during development.
Step 4: Rinse and Maintain
