We are proud to say that absolutely no animal testing occurs at any level in the production of our products. We have taken great measures to make sure our laboratory and ingredient suppliers do not test on animals. We do not engage in third party-testing, and will never sell our products in countries where that is a requirement. We are also Leaping Bunny certified.

Almost all sunless tanning products contain fragrance, essential oils, drying alcohols, synthetic colors, silicones, parabens, & PEG’s - ingredients that do not play any role in the formula’s efficacy and have been proven to aggravate, sensitize and dry out skin. You will never see any of these ingredients in our products. Every product in our range is a skin friendly blend of the highest quality natural tanning actives with moisturizing powerhouses and vitamin rich ingredients. We strongly believe that nourishing and taking care of the skin results in the most natural looking and longest lasting color.

You should see color develop within 4 - 6 hours. You can then reapply to deepen the color. For specific product related questions, please refer to the respective product page. 

Your tan should last you anywhere from 5 - 10 days. Several factors influence how long your color stays on your body - the quality of your self tanner, your preparation before application, your skin type, how often you shower, and how you care for your skin afterwards. You can find more detail on what you can do to prolong your color here.

All of our formulas are suitable for all skin types—no exceptions. We exclusively develop with with gentle, skin-friendly, non comedogenic ingredients to remain compatible with our customers who have more sensitive and/or acne-prone skin. Full ingredient lists are available on each product page.

Yes. All of our products are vegan and do not contain any animal based ingredients.

Absolutely. Every ingredient is safe for the more delicate and difficult facial skin, and will help build healthy, natural color. For a more subtle sun-kissed look, mix our products with your current facial moisturizer. 

Contrary to popular belief, the synthetic dyes in self tanning products do not affect the resulting color. Their sole purpose is to show you where you have applied the product. There can be dozens of undisclosed, harmful chemicals in a single dye, and these chemicals can cause skin sensitivity, irritation and dryness. These dyes can also break down the tanning actives used, resulting in streaking and uneven fading.  For us, the cons simply outweigh the convenience of a guide.

DHA (Dihydroxyacetone) is naturally derived from sugar. The molecules in the sugar react with amino acids found in the top layer of the skin, and produce a browning effect. It has a long history of safe use when applied topically and does not pose any health risks to the skin.

Our products are manufactured in the United States Of America.

All skin and body care products are required by law to have an expiration date. This ensures that a product will uphold its quality, performance and safety for consumer use within a given time period. Our products have a 2 year shelf life from the manufacturing date (printed on the back of every tube) and a 6 month period of use once opened. 

We recommend consulting with your doctor if you are pregnant and looking to use any product in our range.

Most products must contain a preservative to prevent contamination. This is especially important with water based formulas. In small amounts, specific preservatives are considered safe, and the risk to skin from using a contaminated product is considered far greater than using a small amount of a preservative. We choose to use a blend of Phenoxyethanol & Ethylhexylglycerin at the recommended use level of 1.0%. Ethylhexylglycerin is a skin conditioning ingredient that also has the power to enhance the Phenoxyethanol’s ability to keep the product free from bacteria. Both have extensively been proven effective and safe to use and will not irritate or sensitize skin.  That being said, we strive to be always be proactive in researching and discovering new ingredients as they become available.
