Boë Self Tanning Mousse — No.5 150mL | Fast-Drying, Streak-Free Hydrating Foam

Boë No.5 Self Tanning Mousse is a clear, fast-drying tanning foam that delivers an even, natural-looking tan while hydrating and supporting skin elasticity.

This lightweight self-tanner is formulated as a crystal-clear water-to-foam mousse that develops into a natural bronze without orange tones or streaks. Powered by plant-derived DHA and erythrulose, and boosted with skin-nourishing actives like Glycoin and Sodium PCA, the No.5 mousse aims to give a believable glow while improving moisture and surface texture. It dries quickly, leaves no sticky residue, and is fragrance-free and allergen-conscious for sensitive skin.

How quickly will I see color and how long does it last?

The tanning development starts within a few hours and deepens over 6–8 hours to the final shade, depending on your skin chemistry. With proper prep and maintenance, the tan can last several days and fades gradually for an even exit.

• Initial tint visible within 2–4 hours; full development up to 8 hours.
• Plant-based DHA and erythrulose blend for gradual, lasting color.
• Lasts multiple days; duration varies by exfoliation, showers, and skin type.

What makes application streak-free and easy for beginners?

No.5 transforms from a clear liquid into a whipped foam that glides across skin for smooth blending. Because it’s crystal-clear, you can focus on even coverage without worrying about colored guide stains, and the fast-absorbing base reduces transfer and patchiness.

• Clear formula allows visual control during application.
• Whipped texture spreads evenly to reduce lines and streaks.
• Dries quickly to minimize transfer onto clothes or linens.

Which skincare benefits are included while tanning?

The formula includes Glycoin to support collagen-associated pathways and Sodium PCA to attract and retain moisture, delivering skincare benefits alongside bronzing. Propanediol and other humectants help keep skin soft, so the tan sits on hydrated, smoother skin for a more natural finish.

• Glycoin supports skin renewal and firmness-related processes.
• Sodium PCA increases hydration to improve texture and elasticity.
• Humectants reduce dryness and prolong even color development.

Is this suitable for sensitive or allergy-prone skin?

Boë No.5 is fragrance-free and formulated without common allergens, parabens, or hormone-disrupting ingredients. It earned a perfect SkinSAFE score and is designed to minimize irritation for those with sensitive skin, though patch testing is recommended for first-time users.

• Fragrance-free and formulated to avoid common irritants.
• SkinSAFE-reviewed ingredients list for safer use.
• Patch test advised on a small skin area before full application.

Who is this for: Boë No.5 Self Tanning Mousse is suited to anyone seeking a realistic, streak-free tan with skincare benefits—especially people who prefer clear, fast-drying formulas and those with sensitive skin. It’s ideal for first-time self-tanners and experienced users who want a low-mess, hydrating alternative to tinted guide tans, and for anyone looking to maintain skin moisture and tone while building a natural bronze.
