Because your glow should never come with compromises.

When it comes to self-tanning, your skin deserves the best—especially if it’s sensitive. Redness, irritation, and flare-ups? No thank you. You want radiant, beach-ready color without the drama. And we’ve got you.

Whether you’re a self-tanning first-timer or a glow-getting pro with sensitive skin, this guide is your go-to for a flawless tan that feels just as good as it looks.

Why Sensitive Skin Needs a Different Kind of Tan

Your skin’s job is to protect you. So when it speaks up (ahem—burns, stings, or breaks out), it’s not being “difficult”—it’s being honest. The truth? Many self-tanners are packed with heavy fragrances, drying alcohols, and dyes that can mess with your skin’s delicate balance.

But that doesn't mean you need to give up your glow. It means you need a formula that loves your skin as much as you do.

✅ Patch Test Like a Pro

Always start with a small test area (like your inner arm). Give it 24 hours. If your
skin stays calm and happy, you’re good to glow.

✅ Choose Fragrance-Free or Low-Fragrance Formulas

Fragrances can be a major trigger. Look for gentle options made with clean, skin-loving ingredients — like our Clear Vegan Self-Tanning Mousse and Tinted Vegan Self-Tanning Mousse.

✅ Hydrate, Hydrate, Hydrate

Sensitive skin thrives when it’s moisturized. Apply a gentle, fragrance-free lotion to dry areas (like elbows and knees) before tanning to prevent patchiness and irritation.

Take a look at our super hydrating Best Skin Ultimate Body Firm & Lift Cream.

✅ Use a Mitt or Brush

Your hands (and your sensitive skin) will thank you. Application tools ensure even coverage without the friction that can aggravate delicate areas.

We recommend using our Applicator Mitt to protect your hands while applying the self-tanner.
