An instant self-tan gel-cream for a golden face in hours
Lancaster Self Tan Instant Self Tanning Cream Gel Face is a self-tanner for the face that builds a natural, golden colour in just a few hours, with a slight guide tint for easy, even application. DHA develops the tan on the skin's surface, and the gel-cream texture leaves a hydrating, illuminating finish rather than the tacky feel of some self-tanners.
The texture
A silky gel-cream, lightly tinted so you can see where you've applied it, that absorbs without a sticky after-feel.
Who it suits
- Anyone wanting a fast, natural-looking face tan
- Sun avoidance while still wanting colour
- First-time self-tanners, thanks to the guide tint
- All skin types
Worth knowing before you buy: this gel contains fragrance and colourants (including FD&C dyes) for the guide tint; wash hands after application to avoid staining palms.
