What are tanning waters?
Transparent and lightweight, a tanning water is a clear spray which blends water, skin-loving vitamins and active tanning ingredients to hydrate, soften and tan your skin in one step. As they are so lightweight, tanning waters absorb so quickly into the skin and do not clog or your pores or feel heavy on the skin making them perfect for all skin types. They can also be used on face and body to achieve an all over even glow.
Once applied, the tanning waters develop over a couple of hours to leave your skin with a beautiful golden tint. As they are transparent, waters do not stain bedding or clothes making them the perfect tanning products to wear either overnight or throughout the day before a big event.
