Skincare in a Tan means we have added ingredients that are designed to aid healthy skin function and improve your skins natural appearance, while achieving a beautiful glow.
'Serum Tan' is regarding our formula. When formulating our Tan Mist we knew we needed to have serum-like ingredients and a slightly thicker consistency to create an ultra-fine mist through our specially designed mist pump.
I have been in the beauty industry for over 9 years. As a Beauty therapist specialising in Skin, I have worked with a lot of different ingredients to achieve healthy skin function. This is how I have used this knowledge and experience to design a Tanning water with all the added benefits of Skincare. Why not have both!!!

Tans work by the DHA ingredients reacting with dead dry skin cells. The more you have the more it may stick there. This is where our Gentle Exfoliating Glove comes into play. Use thes and focus on areas with more dry skin for the ultimate prep before using our Tan Mist.
No. With our completely Transparent formula and no colour guide means there is no staining. How DHA (the ingredient that makes you tan) works, is by reacting with the very top layers of dead skin cells. This is how your Glow appears, but won't stain anything else. Usual staining from Tans comes from the added colour guides or bronzers for an instant colour. This is what you have to wash off.
Eco fabrics means we have sourced eco-friendly and sustainable fabrics for our accessories. Utilising Recycled Polyester for our Tanning Mitt to reduce the production of Virgin Polyester (plastics). Biodegradable Plant Viscose for our Exfoliating Glove means better for your skin and also breaks down in natural soil and won't last in the environment for Hundreds of years.

MEET THE FOUNDER
Working in the Beauty industry, I could see the effect skincare products were having on the environment.
With expertise across makeup artistry and beauty therapy within the industry, delivered not only a wealth of knowledge to the business of beauty, but also insight into the way brands manufacture and package their products. At the start of our creative journey with NEXTANN, I posed the question:
