Functional Actives - Key Ingredients

DHA (Dihydroxyacetone)

A gentle tanning molecule that reacts with surface amino acids to create a natural-looking, buildable tan. Delivers a believable glow without UV exposure.

Erythrulose

A slow-acting, complementary tanning sugar that enhances longevity, balances tone and helps prevent uneven fade.

Hyaluronic Acid (L Sodium Hyaluronate)

A deeply hydrating, biomimetic form of hyaluronic acid that binds water to the skin, plumping fine lines and improving suppleness of the skin. Its smaller molecular size supports hydration through multiple layers.

Niacinamide (Vitamin B3)

A multitasking vitamin that regulates oil flow, strengthens the skin barrier, brightens and calms visible redness. By supporting the skin’s natural lipid production, it enhances hydration retention and promotes long-term resilience.

Vitamin C

Potent antioxidant protects against free radical damage and supports a clearer, more radiant complexion. Helps reduce blemishes and breakouts, stimulates collagen improving firmness and elasticity.

Vitamin E

A nourishing antioxidant that supports moisturisation and helps counteract dryness during development.

Peptide Moisturising Complex

Helps condition and smooth the skin’s surface, supporting even absorption of tanning actives and encouraging a refined, silky finish.

How It Works

Hydrating Tanning Water uses a fine, fast-absorbing mist delivery system to ensure even distribution without blending. DHA and Erythrulose gradually deepen the skin tone, producing a natural, streak-free bronze that builds with each use. Meanwhile, Hyaluronic Acid, Niacinamide and Vitamins C and E maintain hydration, barrier support and visible radiance during development. Biomimetic peptides help refine texture, ensuring a smooth, even fade and improved glow longevity. The transparent format means zero transfer onto clothing or bedding, making it ideal for daily use, layered hydration and a fresh, believable glow that fits effortlessly into any routine.
