Whether you apply fake tan all year round, just for special occasions or only during the warmer summer months, you will know first hand the frustration you will feel when it doesn’t last long or it goes patchy and flakey. Fortunately, our fake tan tips are here to help!

The common misconception is that how long your tan lasts is based on the application and the tanning product used. This isn’t the sole reason. The products you use and how you look after your skin are hugely influential factors.

Why Do Soaps And Shampoos Influence How Long Fake Tan Lasts?

How you take care of your skin before and after your tanning application has a massive effect on how well your tan will last and look. The biggest factor for your consideration is the soaps and shampoos that you are using. Our range of vegan soaps and vegan shampoo bars can help.

Certain ingredients found within some bathing products can directly harm your tan. They do this by rubbing it off and through the washing process they can deeply exfoliate your skin and remove your tan faster.

As fake tan only covers the top layer of your skin. It makes sense that as you’re scrubbing away in the shower or bath. That you are in essence scrubbing away and removing your tan at the same time, which is not ideal.

They Can Leave A Residue On Your Skin that Prevents Your Tan From Being Applied Correctly

Our Oschen vegan soap bars and vegan shampoos bars are natural and vegan made. Unlike other soaps and shampoos we guarantee no nasties or chemicals are used.

So Why Is This Important When It Comes To Fake Tan?

This residue can prevent products being applied to your skin from working properly. They instantly create a barrier and prevent them from absorbing into your skin correctly.

Avoid Exfoliating As It Will Make Your Tan Fade Quickly

When you exfoliate you are proactively rubbing away skin cells and leaving new, fresh skin on the surface. As fake tan is applied to the top layer of skin, when this is removed, so is your tan.

Liquid shower washes and soaps contain a huge amount of water. To stop this instantly being washed down the plug. They are recommended to be used with wash aids such as a flannel, sponge or shower puff.

When using washcloths or a shower puff with a liquid soap. hey still rub away at the skin removing some of those skin cells and causing your tan to fade and become patchy in areas.

Use A Soap Bar

When you use a soap bar you have the choice of using it with a bamboo soap bag or using it on its own.

For the longest lasting tan using the bar directly against your skin, or lathered in your hands, glides over your skin. Offering a powerful cleanse each time, whilst maintaining the integrity of your skin and not exfoliating and removing your skin cells.

Remember Your Other Wash Products

Not only does the soap you use impact on how well your tan lasts, but so do all of the other products that you use as part of your shower routine. Think about when you wash your hair. All of the shampoo suds will run down your body as you are washing and cleaning your hair thoroughly.

With the majority of on-the-shelf products containing additional additives and manufactured scents these run across your skin and can coat your skin and prevent your tan from lasting, drying out your skin and causing your tan to fade quicker.
