Creating the Ideal Canvas for the Perfect Tan

Removing an old tan whilst exfoliating the skin, making it feel softer and smoother, ready for a tan refresh!

Why did I buy a self-tan eraser?

REMOVE OLD TAN • EXFOLIATE • TAN-PREP

As the Skinny Tan Gradual Tanner is such an amazing self-tan product, you will need something to remove it when you’re ready to refresh your tan. Otherwise, your old tan will fade and go patchy!

This is where something like the Skinny Tan Miracle Tan Eraser comes in. It removes your old tan ready for a fresh, new coating of self-tan.

The Miracle Tan Eraser isn’t just about removing an old tan. It can also be used to just simply exfoliate the skin, getting rid of dead skin, making your skin feel softer and smoother.

What does the Skinny Tan Miracle Tan Eraser claim to do?

According to the Skinny Tan website, the Miracle Tan Eraser “gently and effectively removes old tan, corrects mistakes, and exfoliates the skin to create a soft, smooth finish – ready for fresh application“, within just 5 minutes. And because of its “unique combination of manual (natural gentle Pumice) and chemical exfoliation (Salicylic Acid) with added moisturising skin smoothing ingredients (Glycerin and Urea)“, it gets to work whilst also caring for your skin, leaving it feeling smoother and looking brighter.

So, what’s the word online about the Skinny Tan Eraser?

Looking at the Boots.com website, there are a few comments from people stating that the Miracle Tan Eraser didn’t completely remove their old tan, didn’t work on stubborn areas or that they had to really scrub elbows and feet!

But there are a lot of positive reviews, most of which make the same claims: easy to use; minimal effort; their skin felt soft and really smooth; great base for applying new tan; makes the new tan sit nicer on the skin; didn’t aggregate sensitive skin; no irritation; great exfoliator.

One reviewer suggested making sure that you use the Miracle Tan Eraser for the recommended time, if not more, so the tan is easily removed.

How did I use the Tan Eraser?

Using my hands, I applied the Skinny Tan Miracle Tan Eraser to dry skin and left it for approx. 5 minutes. I then dampened the skin in the shower, buffed it into a bit of a lather using the Skinny Tan Exfoliating Mitt and then rinsed off.

Did this self-tan product meet my expectations?

I thought the Skinny Tan Miracle Tan Eraser was a great way to remove an old tan or even just to exfoliate the skin ready for a new tan. It didn’t make my skin sore and worked brilliantly with the Skinny Tan exfoliating mitt to remove the old tan.

The only criticism I have is the waiting time, but then that’s just because I am such an impatient person! For some reason, I had the idea that I could apply the tan eraser and that the old tan would just melt away – not the case! I don’t actually think there is anything out there that actually does this anyway!

A Glowing Tan from a Spritz of the Exotic

Reviewed by HannaLeave a comment

An exotic smelling tanning mist that absorbs quickly into the skin and gives a natural tanned glow!

Why did I buy a tanning spray / mist?

TANNED • EASY APPLICATION • LONG-LASTING RESULTS

I have pale skin, so before showing any leg, I really need to find the ideal self tanning product. So after trying out the Skinny Tan Gradual Tanner, and it being a real success, I thought I’d give the tanning mist a go. Looks easy enough!!

What does the Skinny Tan Coconut Water Tanning Mist claim to do?

Here’s a short extract from the Skinny Tan website:

“Spritz and glow with our clear, fuss-free tanning mist! Treat yourself to a slice of paradise with this deliciously scented mist containing skin-loving and hydrating coconut water. No need to rinse after applying – just go about your day while your tan develops into a gorgeous medium colour, so natural, no one will even know you’re wearing it!“

So, what’s the word online about the Skinny Tan Coconut Water Tanning Mist?

There are a few reviews on the LOOKFANTASTIC.COM website, most stating that this tanning mist: left a nice glow; smelled nice; was easy to apply; absorbed really quick; gave a nice natural colour; was streak free; developed quick and; a good facial tanning mist that doesn’t clog pores.

In amongst all the positive reviews, one person had suggested – making sure that you rub the mist in evenly.

There was a small handful of the negative comments, and these were mainly about coverage and that the mist left their skin looking patchy!

What was my initial thoughts of this tanning mist?

The spray smelt really nice, and I figured that using a spray / mist based application would be super simple – and how could I go wrong!

How did I use the tanning mist?

Before applying the mist, I used a body exfoliator, as this is what Skinny Tan recommended. I then sprayed the mist onto my legs and rubbed it in using my hands – not recommended by Skinny Tan!

Did the Skinny Tan Coconut Water Tanning Mist meet my expectations?

The smell and natural tanned colour from using this coconut water tanning mist was as expected – perfect 🥰. The mist absorded really quickly into my skin and the tan lasted for quite some time. But, application wasn’t as easy as I thought, and there were patchy bits on my legs.

Personally, I don’t think application and patchiness had anything to do with the actual Skinny Tan mist but more to do with me! For this reason, I do plan on trying this product again but using a tanning mit and paying more attention when applying the product to my skin.

So, watch out for an update!
