FROM CONCEPT TO CREATION: TREMENDOUSLY TANNED FACIAL TANNING MIST

In this journal post, Monica Geuze, the founder of SOPHIA MAE, and Manon Willemsen, Product Development Manager, share insights into our Tremendously Tanned facial tanning mist: the ultimate spray tan for the face. They discuss its origins, fragrance development process, and the unique features that make it a standout addition to the SOPHIA MAE collection.

Discover all the details of our year-long production process, where we aimed to create a formula that doesn't stain or turn orange, and is suitable for all skin tones and types.

HOW DID YOU COME UP WITH THE IDEA TO ADD TREMENDOUSLY TANNED TO THE COLLECTION?

A tanning mist for the face is a completely new product for SOPHIA MAE. The idea for the Tremendously Tanned facial tanning mist arose from the need for a facial spray tan with nourishing properties. We wanted to create a combination of self-tanning and skincare that would also smell wonderful. The result is a facial tanning mist that not only gives a beautiful, glowing tan but also nourishes and cares for the skin. We knew this would be a valuable addition to the SOPHIA MAE collection.

WHAT CAN YOU USE TREMENDOUSLY TANNED FOR?

The name says it all, Tremendously Tanned facial tanning mist is specially designed for use on the face. It is not a self-tanner intended for the entire body, although it is advisable to also apply some facial tanning mist to your neck for a natural and even effect.

CAN YOU TELL US MORE ABOUT THE FRAGRANCE OF TREMENDOUSLY TANNED?

The fragrance of Tremendously Tanned is a blend of rose, violets, freesia, and citrus, giving the tanning spray a refreshing and energizing scent. It's designed to be used after your skincare routine.

CAN YOU TELL US MORE ABOUT THE PRODUCTION PROCESS?

The production process of Tremendously Tanned took more than a year. We wanted to develop a formula that does not stain, does not turn orange and is suitable for all skin tones and types. And to top it all off, it was important that this product was not only a tanning product, but also provided a luminous glow. Everything from the atomizer to the composition of the formula had to be perfect to launch a high-quality product.

WHAT ABOUT THE INGREDIENTS OF TREMENDOUSLY TANNED?

Besides giving you a beautiful, sun-kissed glow, Tremendously Tanned contains moisturizing ingredients like hyaluronic acid, which nourish the skin and enhance its radiance. This self-tan for the face also includes lavender, known for its calming properties and its ability to help prevent acne. As a result, this self-tanner is also suitable for people with sensitive skin.

WHAT SETS TREMENDOUSLY TANNED APART FROM OTHER TANNING MISTS?

Tremendously Tanned is more than just a great tanning spray. What makes it unique is that it is specifically designed to be used after your skincare routine. This allows the product to be better absorbed and ensures the tan lasts longer. Additionally, it provides a beautiful glow for all skin tones and types.

HOW CAN YOU USE TREMENDOUSLY TANNED FOR THE BEST RESULTS?

To apply the facial tanner effectively, start by cleansing, exfoliating, and hydrating your skin. Hold the self-tan mist 6-8 centimeters from your face and spray in an even motion from left to right. Don’t forget to include your neck for a natural result. Leave the mist on for 3-5 minutes or until it feels dry before getting dressed. The color will gradually develop over 4-6 hours, but for a deeper tan, allow it to set for up to 8 hours.

HOW LONG DOES TREMENDOUSLY TANNED LAST?

This facial tanning mist lasts for up to five days, after which the color will gradually fade. The self-tanner will last longer if you keep your skin well-nourished and hydrated during this period. After five days, you can reapply the mist to maintain your tan.

CAN YOU USE TREMENDOUSLY TANNED IN THE SUN?

Like any facial tanner, this tanning mist does not contain SPF and therefore doesn't protect against the sun. Always make sure to apply sunscreen along with the tanning mist to protect your skin.
