Product Description

WHAT IS IT?

Bask in a healthy, natural-looking glow with this gradual tanning lotion.

WHAT DOES IT DO?

Mimicking your skin’s own melanin production, patented plant allo-melanin provides a sun-kissed radiance that’s tailored to you – no streaks in sight.

Coconut oil, mango butter and aloe vera juice keep skin soft and hydrated, while the piña colada scent transports you to sunnier climes every time you apply.

How To Use

With a light brown tint that acts as a guide so you can see exactly where you’re applying it, exfoliate your skin beforehand so it has a smooth, even surface to apply to.

Make sure you apply it on clean dry skin that hasn’t been moisturised as the oils will act as a barrier and prevent the tanning agents from activating.

You can use your hands to rub it in, or for best results, use our tanning mitt to take long, even strokes.

Don’t forget areas like elbows, knees and feet either.

Wash your hands post-application and then apply it every day or every 2-3 days to prolong your sun-kissed skin.

Ingredients

Plant Allo-Melanin

This intelligent ingredient works in harmony with your skin to develop a gradual, even colour. Its slow and steady approach creates a beautifully balanced, natural-looking tan every time.

Mango Butter

This tropical skin nourisher made from mango seeds is lovely and light, without any greasiness. It’s also loaded with nutrients including vitamins A, C and E, magnesium, zinc, and antioxidants to help protect and prep skin for a flawless-looking tan.

Coconut Oil

A marvellous emollient that’s rapidly absorbed, coconut oil is composed of fatty acids that sink into skin. The oil also keeps the skin's barrier function in top condition, meaning it doesn't dry out or result in a patchy tan.

"When I first set out to create a cleanser, I knew it had to do more than just remove makeup. I wanted it to feel like a moment of calm at the start and end of your day; a gentle ritual that would leave your skin soft, balanced, and cared for, no matter your skin type.

That’s how Smoothing Cleanser was born. Powered by nourishing jojoba oil and soothing aloe vera, it’s been part of my daily routine for over a decade and it’s still the product I’m most proud of".

Why Jojoba Oil Is Your Skin's Best Friend

At the heart of our Smoothing Cleanser is jojoba oil: a golden, skin-loving liquid that closely mimics your skin's own natural oils. That means it deeply cleansers without disrupting your delicate moisture barrier. Rich in vitamins E and B-complex, jojoba oil gently melts away makeup, sunscreen, and daily build-up, while keeping your skin nourished and balanced. It's non-comedogenic (so it won't clog pores), making it ideal for all skin types, from dry and sensitive to oily and blemish-prone. We chose jojoba for its versatility and skin compatibility, but you'll stay for the silky-soft glow it leaves behind.

The Story Behind Finishing Touch

"While many setting sprays rely on synthetic film-formers that can contribute to microplastic pollution, Finishing Touch is powered by plant-derived polymers for a cleaner, more sustainable alternative. Infused with natural extracts and antioxidants, it forms a breathable, flexible shield that locks in makeup for up to 16 hours while enhancing skin radiance."
