How quickly will I see a glow and how do I control the shade?

The mousse begins developing immediately and shows a visible bronzed tint right away. Leave it on for 1 hour for a subtle sunkissed finish, 2 hours for medium warmth, or 3 hours for a richer, deeper tan; then rinse to reveal the final color. Adjust timing to suit your skin tone and desired intensity.

• 1 hour — light, natural glow
• 2 hours — medium bronze
• 3 hours — deep, darker tan
• Rinse with lukewarm water and pat dry to set the color

What’s the best way to get streak-free results?

For an even finish, apply the mousse with a soft applicator mitt in circular motions, starting from larger areas and blending edges carefully. The product’s tinted formula gives a visual guide during application so you can spot missed patches immediately. Wait about 60 seconds for it to surface-dry before dressing to avoid transfer.

• Use a tanning mitt to glide the mousse across skin evenly
• Blend wrists, knees and ankles thoroughly to avoid buildup
• Allow 60 seconds before putting on loose-fitting clothing

What does the formula feel like and how long does it last?

The mousse is airy and lightweight, absorbing quickly without a greasy residue. It’s formulated to create a natural, healthy-looking bronze that fades gradually and evenly over several days with normal washing. Reapply when you notice fading to maintain your chosen depth.

• Lightweight whipped texture that spreads easily
• Quick-dry finish — not oily or sticky
• Lasts multiple days; fades evenly with gentle exfoliation

Is this suitable for sensitive skin and what are the product credentials?

St.Tropez Self Tan Express Mousse is vegan and cruelty-free, developed to produce a natural tan without sun exposure. As with any self-tanner, perform a small patch test if you have sensitive or reactive skin. The formula contains a visible guide tint and rinse recommendations to minimize transfer and ensure predictable results.

• Vegan and cruelty-free formulation
• Visible tint for accurate application and coverage
• Travel-friendly 3.4 fl oz size

Who is this for: This mousse is ideal for people who want a fast, customizable tan without sun exposure — from beginners who need a forgiving tinted guide to experienced users who prefer precise control over shade depth.
