Best sunless tanner for the body

1. The Classic St.Tropez Mousse

The St.Tropez Classic Mousse is our most iconic sunless tanner – and for good reason. Its easy-to-apply, velvety mousse formula is infused with ultra-hydrating Jojoba and skincare actives that adapt to individual skin tones, leaving skin feeling healthy and looking beautifully golden for up to 10 days.

A subtle tint makes our Classic Mousse super easy to apply. Simply dispense onto a tanning mitt, then sweep over the body in circular motions, working from the ankles up. After 4 to 8 hours, rinse off in the shower.

For the best tanning results, we always recommend exfoliating with our Tan Enhancing Body Polish and Exfoliator the day before tanning. Then, a few hours before applying sunless tanner, moisturize dry areas such as knees, feet and elbows with our Tan Enhancing Body Moisturizer. Taking a little extra time to prep really makes all the difference in creating the best natural-looking tan!

2. St.Tropez Express Mousse

If you’re looking for the best fast-acting sunless tanner, our St.Tropez Express Advanced Bronzing Mousse delivers the perfect sunkissed bronze in as little as 1 hour. The best thing about our Express self tan? You can achieve your desired depth of tan by choosing how long to wait before showering.

Apply as normal and leave for 1 hour for a gentle glow, 2 hours for a beautiful bronze, or 3 hours for a deep, golden tan.

Best sunless tanner for the face

If you ask us, the best sunless tanners for the face shouldn’t just deliver a great tan, but boast hydrating skin benefits too. Luckily, at St.Tropez, we have two nourishing formulas to choose from!

1. Purity Bronzing Water Face Mist

With our Purity Bronzing Face Mist, all it takes is a few spritzes to achieve a natural-looking sunkissed complexion. Perfect for applying over, under or instead of makeup, its hydrating blend of Hyaluronic Acid and Hibiscus Extract leaves skin feeling refreshed and revived.

Enriched with Green Mandarin Water and Vitamins C and D, this supercharged sunless tanner brightens the complexion and delivers a holiday-fresh glow with no harmful UV rays.
