Which Is The Best Instant Tan For Me?

Looking for that perfect sun-kissed glow without the wait? Whether you're heading to a last-minute event, want to elevate your everyday glow, or just love the feeling of bronzed skin, choosing the right instant tan can make all the difference. 

Our selection of Bali Body instant tanners is designed to give you that instant glow that's perfect for your special events. Below, we’re sharing how to choose your perfect instant tan.

What Is an Instant Tan?

Unlike regular fake tan, like self tan mousse that develops over several hours and lasts for days, instant tans provide a temporary colour boost that washes off with soap and water. This means you get to enjoy a bronzed, radiant look without the commitment. 

Instant tans are perfect for last-minute plans, special events, or when you simply want to experiment with a new shade without worrying about streaks or patchiness later on. Plus, with Bali Body’s expert formulation, you don’t have to worry about orange tones or unpleasant smells—just flawless, natural-looking colour every time.

Meet the Lineup: Bali Body’s Instant Tan Range

Bali Body offers three incredible instant tanning products, each catering to different preferences and skin needs. Let’s break them down:

1. Instant Tan

If you love a quick and effortless application, our cult fave Instant Tan is your go-to. Designed for those who want fast, even coverage with a natural-looking finish, this tanning spray is ideal for:

  • A seamless airbrushed effect
  • A matte finish that resists sweat and transfer
  • Blurring imperfections and evening out skin tone
  • A foolproof application that requires minimal effort

The aerosol formula ensures a streak-free finish, making it a fantastic choice if you’re in a hurry or want an easy, mess-free application. Plus, its lightweight feel ensures that your skin never feels heavy or sticky. Simply spritz onto your skin, blend quickly with our body blending brush, and you’re good to go!


2. Bali Body Instant Tan Cream

Prefer a more controlled application with added hydration? The Bali Body Instant Tan Cream is the perfect option. This award-winning formula (yes, it won a Cosmopolitan Summer Beauty Award!) combines skincare benefits with a gorgeous bronzed finish. It’s great for those who want:

  • A nourishing, hydrating tan experience
  • A smooth, buildable colour that you can layer
  • A formula enriched with skincare ingredients like jojoba oil and vitamin E
  • A luxurious feel that blends seamlessly into the skin

The cream formula allows you to customise your glow, making it an excellent choice for those with dry skin or anyone who enjoys a tan that feels as good as it looks. Apply it like your favourite body lotion for a streak-free, natural-looking tan that washes off effortlessly.


3. Instant Tan Mousse

If you’re new to instant tanning or want an ultra-lightweight feel, then our nearest addition to the collection, the Instant Tan Mousse is your best bet. This chocolate-tinted foam is designed to provide:

  • A lightweight and breathable finish
  • Minimal transfer onto clothes
  • The most natural-looking glow
  • An easy-to-apply mousse texture that spreads evenly

The mousse format is fantastic for beginners since it features a guide colour that helps you see where you’ve applied the product. It’s a great option for those who want a foolproof application with the confidence of an even finish.


Which Instant Tan is Best for You?

For those last-minute invites, an instant tan takes you to glow in a matter of seconds. Below, we’ve highlighted which Instant tan in the BB lineup is right for your skin or event.

  • For Special Events: When there’s no time to complete a regular tan, the Instant Tan spray is your best friend. It delivers an immediate, even colour and dries quickly, so you can wear your favourite outfit with confidence.
  • For Dry Skin: For dehydrated skin, the Instant Tan Cream is enriched with nourishing ingredients to keep your skin hydrated while giving you a stunning immediate glow.
  • For Beginners: If you’re a self tan novice and need a foolproof option, try the Instant Tan Mousse for an ultra-lightweight and super-easy application.
  • For a Natural Look: The Instant Tan Mousse offers the most natural-looking finish, blending seamlessly into the skin.
  • For an Airbrushed Effect: The Instant Tan Spray provides a flawless, photo-ready glow, blurring imperfections with its fine mist application.

No matter which one you choose, you’ll be left with a stunning glow that enhances your natural beauty.


How Long Does Instant Tan Last?

Since Bali Body’s instant tan range is designed to be temporary, it lasts until you wash it off with soap and water. This makes it ideal for one-off occasions, whether it’s a night out, a wedding, or a weekend brunch.

Bali Body’s instant tans are formulated to be long-lasting, sweat and water-resistant. However, to make sure your glow stays put all day or night, avoid excessive sweating, rubbing, or excess exposure to water.

How to Apply Bali Body Instant Tan for Best Results

To achieve the most seamless, natural-looking tan, follow these simple application tips:

  1. Exfoliate Beforehand: Gently scrub away dead skin cells for an even base. This step helps prevent patchiness and ensures the product blends smoothly.
  2. Apply to Clean, Dry Skin: Moisturising immediately before application can create a barrier, so make sure your skin is completely dry.
  3. Use Circular Motions: Whether you’re using your hands, a tanning mitt, or a brush, blend in circular motions for an even finish.
  4. Allow to Dry Completely: Give your tan a few minutes to set before getting dressed to avoid transferring onto clothes.
  5. Layer if Needed: For a deeper tan, start with a light layer and build up gradually until you reach your desired shade.

With these stunning formulas, achieving that sun-kissed summer glow has never been easier!
