This formula is sheer and can correct foundation if necessary, but it is a bit harder to blend than others. It works well on men.

Tip
Some women have more color on their face and chest and less on their neck. Use bronzer to warm up the paler skin on the neck. For those with very red areas, sunspots, or rosacea, bronzers can be used to even out the skin tone.
Use self-tanners to add color to any area of the body including the face. It’s an easy way to mask cellulite and veins on the legs. On the face, self-tanner can brighten up a tired complexion. It can be difficult to decide which product to use so it’s important to test in a hidden spot before applying all over.
Prepare the skin. Always apply self-tanner to clean, smooth, makeup-free skin. It is best to exfoliate first if there are any rough patches. Knees, elbows, and heels are often areas with coarse, dry skin.
Apply a light, even layer. Wait for the color to develop, and then apply a light second coat for a deeper tan. It is easier to build color than to fix mistakes.
Do not forget to apply the product to the neck and ears for a natural-looking result.
Wash your hands immediately after using self-tanner. The product will stain palms and the skin between the fingers.
Wait ten minutes after applying self-tanner to the face before applying any other makeup or getting dressed.
Most self-tanners take an hour or more to develop into a “tan,” so plan ahead.
