Self-tan application as easy as one two three

When it comes to self-tan application with a flawless finish, Velvotan has it solved.

The fake tan pioneers who created the revolutionary Original Tanning Mitt (RRP £2.99), have developed an expert range of new tools to solve common tanning mishaps.

A smooth base for application is essential for achieving a natural looking glow - prevent colour concentration in dryer areas by buffing away dead skin cells with Velvotan's Body Polishing Sponge (RRP £2.49).

Poor back application is another common downfall of the DIY tan, so avoid patchy results by using the new Velvotan Back Applicator (RRP £4.99) to glide self-tan effortlessly over those hard to reach areas. The genius tool comes with two velvety smooth replacement pads, so you can say goodbye to the Battenberg effect forever!

Self-tanning the face can also be tricky, but applying your bronzing product with the new miniature Face Mitt (RRP £1.99) will help you achieve a seamless finish - made out of the same patented, soft-flock material as The Original Mitt, the small size allows you to easily apply product around the hairline and facial features for precision coverage.

For optimum self-tanning results, use the new Velvotan products in conjunction with the Original Self Tanning Mitt.

The Velvotan range is available in Tesco, feelunique.com, Bodycare, Gordons, and pharmacies nationwide.
