Format and face-friendliness. The 1HR Express Mousses are whipped formulas for the body — apply with a mitt, develop in 1–4 hours, rinse. Face Tan Drops are a serum concentrate built specifically for face skin: lighter texture, mixed into your existing moisturiser/SPF, develops overnight. Use the mousse on your body and the drops on your face for a glow that matches top to toe.

No on both. The colour base is engineered for warm, golden development — no orange, no green cast. The formula is non-comedogenic and pairs hyaluronic acid + niacinamide with the tanning actives, so it works in service of your skin barrier, not against it. If you're acne-prone, patch test on the jawline first.

Start with 2 drops — that gives you a soft, lit-from-within tint. Build to 4 drops for full holiday glow. Every nightly application deepens the colour, so 2 drops every night for a week reads deeper than 4 drops in one go. Adjust by occasion, not bottle.

Not the smartest pairing — the drops are formulated and dosed for the face. For the Sock Test on your legs and the rest of your body, use the 1HR Express Mousse (or the Clear version) with the BGE Sock. The drops are the face piece of the routine that finishes the glow above your collarbones.
