Tanning Oil

Tanning oils may include sunless self-tan oils, instant bronzing oils and shimmering body oils that give the skin a moisturised, luminous appearance. Check the label carefully because some products create cosmetic colour without sun exposure, while traditional tanning oils are intended for use during ultraviolet exposure and may offer little or no meaningful sun protection. A sunless or wash-off bronzing oil is the safer choice for achieving a bronzed appearance without deliberately increasing ultraviolet exposure. Apply sparingly to exfoliated, dry skin and blend carefully around elbows, knees, ankles and hands. Tanning oil must not replace a broad-spectrum sunscreen, and any stated sun-protection factor should be checked separately on the product label.
