How to keep a radiant complexion in winter?

Do the colder months make you long for summer and, above all, your summer tan? Although teleporting yourself to midsummer is not an option, we offer a solution that should please you just as much!

 

These days, the sun is scarcer and the UV index much lower, so it's difficult (not to say impossible) to maintain your tanned complexion naturally! Fortunately, we've got the products you need to restore your glow!

 

Self-tanning products are a simple, effective solution for maintaining a summery complexion all year round. Whether you have a pale or darker complexion, you'll find the right products to give you the perfect natural result!


It can sometimes seem that self-tanning makes your skin orange, but by choosing the right products and routine for your needs, you can be sure that you won't look like a carrot. Color intensity depends on application time before rinsing and DHA concentration.


Self-tanning products are composed of DHA (dihydroxyacetone) and erythrulose. When these components come into contact with the skin, pigments are gradually formed, giving the skin a darkening effect that fades after a few days.


It's important to choose the right products for you to avoid too great a contrast with your natural skin tone. If you're having trouble choosing, don't hesitate to write to us on our social networks for advice.

 

Exfoliator


Every good self-tanning routine starts with an exfoliator. We recommend that you exfoliate and moisturize your skin before applying the self-tanner, for better hold. The product will also be easier to apply on smooth skin, and you'll get a natural, more even result.

 

 

Self-tanning mousse

 

When we think of self-tanning products, we often think of the famous self-tanning mousse. Several formulas are available in a variety of shades to give you a customizable complexion, while leaving your skin smooth and streak-free. Whether it's for a special event or simply to make you feel good about yourself every day, self-tanning mousse is an easy and effective solution! Results usually appear 6 to 8 hours after application, and can last up to 7 days.



Self-tanning mousse water


There's also a self-tanning mousse water formula that offers more hydration and a luminous glow to your skin. The result is similar to that of regular self-tanning mousse and is available in two shades: pale to medium and medium to dark. Its fast, transfer-free application is perfect for those who are on-the-go and want almost instant results!

 

 

Tanning drops


Tanning drops are another great option for achieving a natural, bronzed complexion. Used as make-up, they can be mixed with your day cream for easy application and longer-lasting wear. You can adjust the amount for a more natural or intense effect, as you wish! It's the perfect product to elevate your daily make-up routine.

 


Self-tanning serum


The self-tanning serum provides a longer-lasting luminous effect than these, and is just as easy to integrate into your facial care routine. In addition to giving you a beautiful, natural-looking complexion, it moisturizes and is suitable for all skin types. It's the perfect solution for a radiant complexion without compromise!

Self-tanning water


 Finally, we can't overlook one of Nuda's Best Sellers: the famous self-tanning face water. Available in two shades, it's easy to apply and its formula is light, non-sticky and transfer-free! This favorite of many can be applied 2 to 3 times a week for a radiant, low-maintenance complexion!


*Calling all low-maintenance girlies: this is THE product for you!

 

Illuminator


What better accompaniment to a beautiful tanned complexion than a luminous effect! To remind you of warm days at the beach and give you a radiant complexion, body illuminator adds a light wow effect. It's the ideal product to revive your dull winter complexion!


*Nuda's formula has no greasy or oily effects, so it's an added value for glitter fans who like a light finish on the skin!


Tan eraser

 

Another interesting addition to your self-tanning routine is the tan eraser. Acting like a body make-up remover, it removes self-tanning residues, cleanses your skin and tones it. It's a must-have to maximize your results and prepare your skin for a new application of self-tanner! 


* Note that if you've applied a little too much self-tanning mousse, the eraser doesn't necessarily make up for your mistake. Instead, it's used to remove excess product from your skin before starting a new routine.

 

 

Accessories


To achieve an even complexion and avoid the notorious “self-tanning stains”, it's important to follow the instructions specific to each self-tanning product. Application time and recommended technique may vary according to the product used. To avoid unpleasant surprises, make sure you follow the correct procedure. Several accessories are also available to make application easy and to optimize your result, including the glove and the back applicator.


The glove allows you to spread the self-tanning mousse evenly without staining your hands or leaving streaks!


Don't have anyone to help you apply your self-tanner to your back? No problem! We've got the solution! The back applicator lets you reach those hard-to-reach areas.


Finally, the brush spreads the self-tanner to evenly cover harder-to-blend areas like collarbones, hands and elbows. It leaves a natural, streak-free finish!

 

As well as giving you that summer feeling, even in the middle of winter, self-tanning products are also a great option for getting a tan without having to expose yourself to the sun and the damage caused by UV rays. They can therefore be used all year round, whether to accentuate your tan in summer or to revive your complexion in winter!


We recommend that you wash your hands thoroughly after applying self-tanning products, to avoid staining them for some time.
