face & body.
the zones hub. legs, arms, face, back, hands.
Different zones, different rules. The mousse you use on your legs is not the formula for your face. The technique for arms is not the technique for your back. This hub is the zone-by-zone playbook — what to use where, how long to develop, and how to blend so nothing reads as patched-together.
Pay particular attention to the giveaway zones: hands, feet, knees, elbows and the back of the neck. Get those right and the rest of the body follows.

- Face TanFace tan refers to any self tan product formulated specifically for facial skin — usually drops, mist, or cream — with lower DHA concentration and non-comedogenic ingredients.
- Self Tan DropsSelf tan drops are a concentrated DHA serum mixed into existing moisturiser or serum, allowing the user to control depth per application.
- Dry ZonesDry zones are the body areas where skin tends to be drier than average — knees, elbows, ankles, wrists, the backs of hands and the tops of feet — which absorb self tan more aggressively.
- Orange PalmsOrange palms describes the bright orange residue left on the hand when self tan product pools on the palm during application without being washed off.
- Tan LineA tan line is the visible boundary between tanned and untanned skin, created when clothing or accessories covered the skin during application or sun exposure.
