1. Self-Tanning Before Travel: Why Timing Matters The best way to ensure a streak-free, long-lasting fake tan while travelling is to apply it before you leave. We recommend tanning 24 to 48 hours before departure to allow full development time and avoid last-minute mishaps. Before your trip, follow this routine for a flawless tan:
- Exfoliate thoroughly with our Tan Remover Bar the day before tanning
- Moisturise dry areas like elbows, knees, ankles, and hands
- Apply your summerbrons. mousse with a tanning mitt, blending in long, evenstrokes
- Allow the tan to develop and rinse off as directed for your perfect bronzebase
- This gives your colour time to settle, so you wake up golden and ready to pack.
2. What to Pack: Self-Tanning Essentials for Travel While most self-tanning products are too large for carry-on luggage, you can still travel with your tan in checked bags. Here’s what we recommend including in your suitcase to maintain your glow on the go:
