They offer effective photostable, broad-spectrum UVA and UVB protection, and help achieve that PIZ BUIN ®sunscreens comply with the latest European Commission recommendation on sunscreen products. As suncare specialists, we use innovative technologies to make sure you achieve the right balance of colour and protection whenever you enjoy the sun. Self-tanning has come a long way since the days of 1980s sunbeds and orange streaks. Fast forward to 2022, and the best tanning lotions deliver a healthy glow by adding colour to your skin or helping to boost your skin’s natural tanning process. Many contain premium skincare ingredients such as hyaluronic acid, aloe vera and vitamin E to keep your skin smooth and hydrated while giving you a natural-looking summertime glow without the UV rays.For reasons of hygiene and safety, personal grooming products, cosmetics or items of intimate clothing cannot be returned. Active ingredient “Illumitone” (melitan) works with your skin’s own tanning pigments (melanin) to enhance your tan, which Piz Buin claims “more than doubles” the colour of your natural tan. So, it’s a tan booster rather than a fake tan, with the great advantage that it only increases your tan where you’re already tanning. Therefore, there’s no risk of weird tanned spots (inner arms etc) or orange residue on your clothes or bed sheets. Buyers also love that it’s water-resistant without feeling greasy, and absorbs really fast.

The active ingredient in most tanning lotions is dihydroxyacetone (DHA), a colour additive that reacts gradually with the dead cells in your skin’s surface to create a gently bronzed look. It wears off after a few days, but many of our recommended tanning lotions are so good for moisturising your skin that you’ll want to use them week after week. Or day after day, if you want a seriously deep tan. In fact, PIZ BUIN was one of the first to make tanning safer by applying the Sun Protection Factor (SPF) system in the 1960s. Only DHA stops SPF from working properly, so tanning lotions that use other active ingredients are usually OK to use alongside sun cream. In fact, one of our recommendations ( Piz Buin Tan & Protect Tan Intensifier) contains SPF as well as its non-DHA tanning ingredient, Melitan, which works with your skin’s melanin to boost its natural tanning reaction.

Unwanted Food or Drink Products - Once supply conditions are broken, there are a number of factors outside of our control that can affect the quality of a product. Therefore perishable goods such as food and drink cannot be returned.

Unlike most tanning lotions, Piz Buin Tan & Protect Tan Intensifier can be used along with a high-SPF sun cream, because it doesn’t contain ingredients that stop the SPF from working properly. In fact, it offers SPF 15 protection by itself, which certainly helps but may not be enough for your face, so it’s worth topping up. Buyers with very pale skin (including one with albinism) rate Body Glow’s gentle colour-building properties, which begin from the very first application but never get over the top. Three times a week is more than enough to build up a natural glow, but you can use it every day if you want a deeper tan. The colour lasts well, too, making this one of the best-value products in our lineup. For over 70 years, PIZ BUIN has provided sun worshipers around the world with the protection they need. Reapply frequently, especially after perspiring, swimming or towel drying. Avoid exposure to the sun during the central hours of the day and prolonged exposure, even when using sun protection. Keep babies and children out of direct sunlight.
