This violet based tanning mousse will develop into the sort of dark, rich tan you can only achieve naturally from spending a few days beside the pool in Mykonos.

If you have medium to deep skin or just prefer an extra rich tan like you really committed and spent the whole NZ winter aboard a super yacht in The Med, the Violet Ultra Dark Tanning Mousse is for you.

If you have fair or light skin or you're new to tanning, the Medium Self Tanning Mousse is a better option for a more subtle golden, natural looking tan. For a deeper golden Bondi kinda tan, the Dark Self Tanning Mousse should be perfect for you.

If you're a sucker for a coconut scent and you think your skin might need some extra hydration, check out the Coconut Dark Tanning Mousse.

What to expect from your tanning mousse

I have been using the different tanning products for a couple of months now. I've worn the tan during the day and overnight, and here's what I've found;

• No fake tan smell
• No orange tone
• No patchiness or streaking
• No transfer onto clothing or bedding
• At least a week of wear
• Fades evenly and gradually
• Tan is easily and evenly prolonged using the gradual tan lotion

For best sunless tan results

1. If you're planning to tan overnight, exfoliate and moisturise the morning of application, if you are going to tan during the day, exfoliate and moisturise the night before - give your elbows, knees and ankles an extra good scrub
   
   
2. Wait at least 24 hours after you wax or shave before you apply your tanning mousse - this will stop you from getting the little black dots in your pores
   
   
3. Don’t use moisturiser, body oil or perfume while waiting for your tan to develop - that's just asking for a patchy tan!

Applying your tanning mousse

1. Use a mitt if you have one (and if it's your jam) otherwise use your hands - just be sure to have the Jif handy for when you've finished
   
   
2. Use sparingly and carefully on areas like knees, ankles and elbows (#IYKYK)
   
   
3. For a subtle, natural tan take a quick shower (45-60 seconds) in lukewarm water after an hour - no soap, body wash, scrub etc. For a deeper tan, leave on for up to eight hours

Prolonging your tan

1. Moisturise, moisturise, moisturise
   
   
2. If you want to get serious about it use the Gradual Tanning Lotion (it doesn't have a fake tan smell so is safe to wear during the day!)
   
   
3. Don't exfoliate until you're ready to reapply (your tan should last at least a week and fade evenly)
