Tanning & Sun Care Guide

At Bronze & Balance, we believe achieving a beautiful glow should go hand-in-hand with looking after your skin.

Whether you’re using one of our tanning accelerator creams, enjoying the sunshine or making SPF part of your everyday skincare routine, a little preparation can make a big difference.

Start with clean, well-conditioned skin.

Regular gentle exfoliation can help remove dry surface skin and create a smoother base for beauty and tanning products. Follow with moisturiser where appropriate, paying particular attention to areas that tend to become dry.

The aim isn’t simply to achieve colour — it’s to keep your skin looking and feeling healthy, soft and hydrated.

Once your sunscreen has been properly applied and allowed to absorb, apply your Bronze & Balance tanning accelerator evenly across the areas you wish to tan.

Our tanning accelerator collection is designed to complement your tanning routine while helping leave your skin feeling moisturised and conditioned.

Choose your favourite fragrance — Black Cherry, Whipped Vanilla, Peach or Watermelon — and apply evenly.

Remember: a tanning accelerator does not replace sunscreen.

This SPF-first, accelerator-second approach is also the method recommended in the reference outdoor tanning guide.

Protection doesn’t stop with the first application.

Reapply sunscreen at least every two hours and immediately after swimming, heavy sweating or towel drying. Water-resistant sunscreen still needs to be reapplied.

If you reapply your tanning accelerator during the day, make sure this never interferes with maintaining adequate sunscreen coverage.

Good sun care isn’t just about the bottle.

Where possible, combine SPF with shade, lightweight protective clothing, a suitable hat and UV-protective sunglasses. Avoid allowing your skin to burn.

A tan should never come at the expense of your skin.

Your face is one of the areas most consistently exposed to daylight, which is why we’ve included dedicated facial SPF products within the Bronze & Balance collection.

Apply your SPF50 Glow Daily Face Serum or SPF50 Luminous Face Balm generously as part of your morning routine.

If using the serum with other skincare or makeup, allow your SPF to absorb before applying products over it. The reference guide similarly recommends positioning SPF50 serum as the final skincare step before makeup.

Reapply whenever necessary throughout the day.

Once you’ve finished enjoying the sun, continue caring for your skin.

Shower gently rather than using very hot water, and follow with a moisturising product to help keep the skin feeling soft, smooth and hydrated.

The reference tanning guide places moisturisation at the centre of its aftercare routine as well.

Sun protection shouldn’t be reserved exclusively for holidays.

Making SPF part of your regular skincare routine helps ensure you’re thinking about protection whenever UV exposure is significant. Facial SPF products make this particularly easy to incorporate into your normal morning skincare routine.
