*Quality: Bronze Angel's innovative formula enhances body contour and muscle definition, helping you stand out from the competition. This unique formula not only has anti-aging and anti-inflammatory properties but also dries instantly, leaving your skin feeling clean and fresh. Bronze Angel is a state-of-the-art tanning solution that instantly delivers a radiant tan without sun exposure. You'll achieve a visible bronze tone immediately, without having to expose yourself to the sun. The product dries quickly, leaving your skin feeling clean and fresh. The tanning effect lasts for up to about a week and then fades naturally. The color should be even and not patchy. You can get dressed again sooner after application. With every Bronze Angel purchase, you'll receive a free Dream Tan Glove!
*Composition: The product contains natural plant extracts and moisturizers (e.g., aloe vera, jojoba oil, wheat germ oil) and is designed to hydrate the skin rather than dry it out. Bronze Angel's unique blend of ingredients accelerates the tanning process and provides an even, long-lasting tan that fades naturally. The formula is intended to have skin-care properties, reduce inflammation, and promote skin health. Depending on your natural skin tone and desired tan intensity, 2 to 6 coats are required. A mitt is typically included to protect your palms from staining and help with even application. Exfoliating the skin beforehand is recommended.
*Sports: The formula is designed to accentuate muscle contours and body shape, making it especially useful for bodybuilding, stage, or fitness competitions. Bodybuilding competitors use it before shows to enhance their muscle definition under stage lighting. The tan helps to highlight the muscles. People who work as fitness models, participate in bodybuilding competitions, bikini/figure contests, or similar events use such tanning creams/sprays to achieve an even complexion, reduce shine issues, and enhance definition. This includes dancers, stage performers, and even those who perform artistic acts under stage lighting, photography, or other events where stage presentation is judged. They may use products like Dream Tan or Bronze Angel to ensure their skin looks its best under bright light. For photos for magazines, portfolios, or advertising purposes, the tan provides an even skin tone, avoids glare or a washed-out appearance, and improves the contrast and definition of the images. Dream Tan advertises that it is used by athletes in international competitions; many official bodybuilding/physique competitors prefer it.
*Brand: Dream Tan is a brand that has existed since about 1995.
*Country of origin: The company is based in the USA.
Preparation:
1. Exfoliate thoroughly:
Remove dead skin, especially on rough areas (elbows, knees, ankles). This will prevent uneven patches. Use a good body scrub.
2. First shave/wax:
If you're planning hair removal, do it before tanning and give your skin some time to recover. Freshly shaved or waxed skin that is clean and dry will result in a smoother finish.
3. Lightly moisten dry areas:
Apply a moisturizer or lotion to knees, elbows and ankles (areas that tend to absorb more product) to prevent them from becoming too dark.
4. Use a glove or applicator:
Bronze Angel comes with a glove; use this for application. This will prevent stains on your palms and ensure a more even application.
Application:
1. Dry skin:
Make sure your skin is completely dry before you begin applying the lotion. Moisture or lotion that hasn't been fully absorbed can cause streaks.
2. Spray/spread:
Carefully spray the product onto the glove and then spread it evenly over the skin, instead of spraying it directly onto the skin. This makes it easier to control and ensures even coverage.
3. Apply several layers if necessary:
Depending on your natural skin tone and desired tanning intensity, you may need 2 to 6 layers. Allow each layer to dry completely before applying the next.
4. Waiting/drying time:
The color is immediately visible, but will intensify over the next ~3 hours. Do not wash immediately and avoid excessive sweating. Allow the product to dry completely.
5. Pay attention to your hands and joints:
Either use the glove thoroughly and wash your hands immediately afterward, or apply the product very sparingly to the hands and wrists to avoid excessive buildup. Apply the product sparingly to joints and rougher areas.
Time:
1. When to apply:
In competitions, it is often applied several hours before the performance to allow the color to develop. The same applies to photos. The color of Bronze Angel develops into a more intense shade within 3 hours of application.
2. Waiting time before bathing/sweating:
Avoid showering for approximately 3 hours after application. Keep skin dry. Tight clothing or heavy sweating can cause the tan to smudge before it sets.
Aftercare & nursing:
1. First, wear loose clothing:
Tight clothing can rub off the tan or distribute it unevenly. Wear loose/dark clothing, especially immediately after application.
2. Avoid excessive sweating or swimming too soon:
Moisture or friction can lead to uneven fading of the color.
3. Moisturize your skin daily:
Hydrated skin keeps color more even and prolongs its appearance. Dry skin = faster fading or spotting.
4. Improvements:
If you want a more intense shade or a more striking color before a show or photoshoot, apply another layer, ideally the evening before or the morning of the event, and allow the layers to dry thoroughly. Bronze Angel makes this possible.
5. Remove:
After your event, or if you want a fresh start: Wash with soap and water and gently exfoliate your skin. With proper care, the product will fade naturally.
6. Test spot:
If you are using the product for the first time or have sensitive skin, perform a small test patch 24 hours beforehand to ensure that no side effects occur.
