Gradual Body Tan Lotion: When to Use It
Gradual Body Tan is a body tan lotion for anyone who wants soft, buildable color without jumping straight into a mousse. Apply it like moisturizer, let the color develop over 6 to 8 hours, and repeat until your tan looks right.
Gradual Body Tan Lotion vs. mousse
Choose Gradual Body Tan when you want the most forgiving route. It is best for beginners, fair skin, weekly maintenance, and days when you want light color with less commitment. Choose a mousse when you want a faster, more visible bronze for an event, vacation, or photos.
How often to use gradual tan lotion
Use Gradual Body Tan 3 to 4 times per week for best results. Apply a thin, even layer to clean dry skin, then wash your hands thoroughly after use to avoid staining your palms.
Best for beginners who want buildable color
If self-tanner usually feels intimidating, gradual body tan lotion is the easiest place to start. You can build color slowly, keep the finish natural-looking, and stop once you reach the depth you want.
