• Before applying sunless tanners, cleanse and exfoliate skin with a soft loofah or cloth to achieve a longer-lasting, even tan and allow it to dry. Any dry patches will absorb too much color and your tan will look uneven.

• Wash hands with soap and water immediately after application.
• To tan the backs of your hands, apply with a make-up wedge in smooth even strokes being sure to blend in evenly.
