7 tanning accessories that will actually change your life
If you're a true fake tan enthusiast, you probably already know every tanning commandment in the book.
But, we STILL think we can change your life today. And we weren't just saying it for the headline.
We truly believe that at least one of these seven tanning accessories will change the way you get your glow on forever...
Self-Tan Back Applicator, £8, ModelCo
Friends, partners and housemates everywhere dropped to their knees to thank the tanning Gods the day back applicators were released. No more yelling out 'I'm ready' from the bathroom as you stand in a towel; this giant mitt with handles reaches all the spots you can't. It takes a bit of practice and you will need a mirror, but at least you won't dislocate your shoulder trying to reach that triangle patch in the middle of your back.
The Ultimate Back & Body Exfoliating Mitt, £19.95, Bronzie
But what about when you need to remove your back tan? Bronzie have got you covered with their exfoliating mitt. The gritty texture will buff away any leftover colour to have you prepped and ready for another coat. Plus, it's infused with charcoal to help withdraw impurities (bye, bacne!).
Tan Remover Mitt, £5.69, St Tropez
Not that hardcore yet? A simple exfoliating glove will be more up your alley. Pop it on your hand and use it to buff away dead skin at the elbows and knees. This will prevent the tan from catching and becoming darker in these orange-prone areas. Don't forget to apply a touch of tanning primer in these areas also.
'Chelsea' Jumpsuit, £64.95, Bronzie
Tanning 101: do not wear jeans, leggings or a bra after tanning. So what CAN you wear? A tansie, obvs. A jumpsuit designed specifically for wear post-tan, with breathable fabric and adjustable fit so you'll never suffer strap marks again. Comfy enough to sleep in so you don't ruin your sheets, too!
Self-Tan Sheet Protector, £33.50, Tanzee
If you prefer to keep it free and breezy in the bedroom, you could opt for a sheet protector instead. This one even has a pillow slip attached for the face-tanners out there.
Self Tan Eraser, £14.99, Bondi Sands
Applying a tan on top of a tan is only going to end in uneven disaster. But you no longer have to scrub and scrub to remove your tan (or erase mistakes). Simply apply this foam the same as you did your tan, wait five minutes and then shower with warm water.
Velvet Tanning Mitt, £4.95, Cocoa Brown
Once you try a tanning mitt with a thumb you might never look back. Especially good for those with larger than life hands, the extra width is everything.
