ST. MORIZ Professional Dark Self Tanner Mousse with Velvet Mitt — Deep Bronze, Fast-Drying & Moisturizing (6.76 fl oz)

Whether you want a holiday-ready bronze or a year-round glow, this salon-inspired mousse delivers a deep, even color. The formula combines a wash-off guide tint for mistake-free application with moisturizing agents like Vitamin E and Aloe Vera to help skin feel soft while the tan develops. Packaged with a velvet tanning mitt, the set is designed so both beginners and experienced tanners can apply smoothly and avoid stained palms.

How long does the color take to develop and how long does it last?

The tan starts to appear within a few hours and deepens over the next 4–6 hours. Full development usually completes by the end of a day, and with proper prep and maintenance, the color can last several days to over a week before natural exfoliation fades it.

• Initial color visible within 4–6 hours
• Full depth often reached by 8–24 hours
• Expect gradual fade over 5–10 days depending on skin and care
• Moisturize regularly to extend wear

What’s the best way to apply the mousse for an even, streak-free result?

For an even finish, exfoliate and shave at least 24 hours before application, then use the included velvet mitt to spread the mousse in circular motions. Work from limbs toward the torso, blend around joints, and use sparing amounts on hands and feet to avoid buildup. The wash-off guide color helps you see coverage immediately, so you can correct any missed areas before it sets.

• Exfoliate and shave 24 hours beforehand
• Apply with the velvet mitt in circular motions
• Bend elbows and knees while applying to blend seams
• Rinse mittable guide color if needed before drying

Which skin benefits are included in the formula and is it suitable for sensitive skin?

The mousse contains moisturizing Aloe Vera and Vitamin E to help hydrate and support smoother-feeling skin during tanning. It’s dermatologically tested and formulated without parabens and sulfates, and the brand reports vegan and cruelty-free standards. If you have sensitive or reactive skin, perform a small patch test before full application to confirm compatibility.

• Aloe Vera and Vitamin E for hydration and comfort
• Dermatologically tested formulation
• Free from parabens and sulfates; vegan and cruelty-free
• Patch test recommended for sensitive skin

Can this mousse be used on face and body, and how do I maintain the tan?

The mousse is formulated primarily for body use but can be used on the face with careful, light application—blend well and avoid contact with eyes. To maintain the color, moisturize daily, avoid long hot baths that accelerate fading, and gently exfoliate only when you’re ready to remove the tan. Top up with short reapplications or a gradual tanner to even out fading areas.

• Use sparingly on face; blend thoroughly
• Daily moisturization prolongs wear
• Avoid excessive scrubbing and long hot showers
• Touch up with small reapplications as needed

Who is this for?

It's suited to those who prefer a salon-style finish at home, value vegan and cruelty-free formulas, and want a product that includes a mitt for controlled, mess-free application.
