Extended Reach, Even Glide, Seamless Back Tanning Made Simple

$23.00

The SELF Back Tan Applicator is a professional-style tanning tool designed to make back application easy, effective and streak-free. Featuring a dual velvet side for smooth, even colour distribution and a protective fabric layer to keep hands clean, this long, flexible applicator effortlessly reaches the areas a mitt can’t. Wide hand straps provide stability and control, while the extended length ensures balanced, consistent coverage across the full back. Reusable, easy to clean and compatible with all SELF Tan products, it delivers a flawless finish every time.

How To Use
  • Apply SELF Tan Bronzing Foam (or preferred SELF product) onto one half of the velvet applicator
  • Fold the applicator in half to disperse product evenly across the surface
  • Holding the side handles, glide the applicator smoothly over the back using long, buffing motions
  • Repeat until the entire back is evenly coated
  • Rinse thoroughly and allow to air dry completely before next use
Best For
  • Anyone wanting streak-free back tanning
  • Reaching areas the Mitt cannot
  • Enhancing the application of any SELF Tan product
  • Even colour across the full back
