Does TanForce smell?

TanForce isn’t perfumed and has an inoffensive odour. However, your skin will smell during tanning due to the maillard reaction which occurs when skin proteins react with the sugars in dead skin cells to form an artificial tan.

Does TanForce stain?

TanForce makes the surface of your skin brown due to the caramelisation of sugar in dead skin cells. These dead skin cells should be washed off approximately 12 hours after application and before you sleep.

If you don’t shower, your skin cells will transfer to and stain fabrics. To help combat this, exfoliate well before applying TanForce.

Does TanForce cover up freckles, age spots and blemishes?

TanForce is a water-based self-tanner not a 'cover up'. It tints the skin and makes freckles, age spots and blemishes less obvious but it does not completely cover them.

Do I need to exfoliate and moisturise my whole body before applying TanForce, or can I just focus on dry areas like my knees and elbows?

It’s always a good idea to exfoliate and dry your whole body before applying TanForce.

If it’s your first time using TanForce we recommend that you don’t moisturise and instead apply a single layer of tan to see how the colour develops. If you feel that certain areas of your body (like your knees and elbows) are too tanned after the first application, use moisturiser on these areas during your next application. End results are dependent on your skin type.
