How Redheads Can Effectively Use Tanning Drops

During the winter months, you might want a subtle glow. When it comes to self-tanning, there are a lot of options. You can go for a mist, a mousse, a cream, or even wipes. One option for self-tanning that has become increasingly popular recently is tanning drops. If you’ve unfamiliar with tanning drops, don’t worry! We’ve got you covered with everything you need to know.

What are tanning drops?

Tanning drops are a form of sunless tan that comes in a bottle with a dropper. They are similar in texture to serum or facial oil. You mix them into your moisturizer and apply like normal. Then over several hours, the tan develops.

How do they work?

Like most self-tanners, there’s a development period, and during this period you want to avoid contact with water. Once your tan has developed, it’s just like any other self-tan and will naturally fade over time. The big difference between tanning drops and other self-tanners is the ability to get more natural, streak-free coverage.

Where do you use them?

One of the best places to use tanning drops is your face. Since they mix into moisturizer it’s a great way to get your face tan to match your body tan. Tanning drops are not limited to your face though, you can use them all over your body!

Are there ‘Redhead-Friendly’ approved options?

Yes! The great thing about tanning drops is you have the ability to customize your color and coverage. Simply use fewer drops for lighter color or more for a darker bronze glow. Like other self-tanners, tanning drops come in a variety of colors so if it’s your first time trying them out, opt for the lightest shade and just try a few drops.
