Tanning mitt tips

Handy hints on the best way to use a tanning mitt.

Mitts are great for encouraging an even fake tan.

An essential piece of kit for achieving the perfect tan, a Sienna X tanning mitt is guaranteed to leave your skin looking beautifully golden, minus unsightly streaks and orange patches.

Designed by tanning experts, our tanning mitt is easy to use and super comfortable to boot! The special double-sided design means you can use the entirety of the surface area to apply sunless tanner all over your body extremely quickly. Plus the durable fabric can be hand washed to remove residual product at the end of your treatment. Use plain water or add some gentle soap to wash away the colour. Then allow your tanning mitt to air dry to protect the fibres.

Here are our top three tips for using your tanning mitt to best effect:

1. Pour a small amount of fake tan directly to your mitt. The fibres will absorb some of the product, which will ensure that you won’t end up with a heavy-looking finish, but a light, natural-looking result.

2. Use the tanning mitt to rub the self tan onto your skin in gentle, circular motions. Begin at the feet and move upwards over the legs, torso and chest area. Add more product as required. However, as the mitt will have absorbed some of the fake tan beforehand, you may find that there will be enough colour on the surface to cover key areas already. So try to avoid adding too much product at an early stage.

3. Remove one tanning mitt and use the other one to tan the back of your hand. Carefully do the same with the other hand, trying to avoid putting extra pressure on the knuckles. Another top tip is to paint your nails before your treatment to ensure that your fake tan doesn’t discolour your nail bed.
