Overview
An 8 oz tanning gel with shimmering gold flakes, formulated with antioxidants and aloe for use indoors or outdoors while tanning.
This is a shimmer tanning accelerant gel rather than a self-tanner, meant to be applied before sun or tanning-bed exposure. The gold flecks are a cosmetic shimmer rather than a color-depositing pigment.
- 8 oz tanning power gel
- Glistening gold shimmer flakes
- Antioxidants and aloe
- Non-greasy, for indoor and outdoor use
Who it's for
Suits people who tan outdoors or in tanning beds and want a lightweight, non-greasy gel with visible shimmer. Not for anyone seeking sun protection or a gradual self-tanning color.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Lightweight, non-greasy gel texture
- Aloe and antioxidants included
- Works for both indoor and outdoor tanning
- No SPF or sun protection listed
- Shimmer flakes may not suit those wanting a matte finish
Performance notes
The gel base is designed to feel lightweight and non-greasy against sweat and heat during a tanning session, while aloe is included to offset the drying effect of UV exposure. The gold flakes sit on the skin surface for a glistening look rather than altering skin tone directly.
