What is Dihydroxyacetone

Dihydroxyacetone is an ingredient that affects the colour of skin.  Derived from sugar, it reacts with amino acids found in the top layers of skin to create a shade of brown; the effect takes place within two to six hours and it can build colour depth with every reapplication.
It has a long history of safe use when applied topically to skin, where it affects only the uppermost layers. 

Benefits

Creates a warm, honey-kissed glow without sun exposure.

Buildable colour – apply one layer for a subtle radiance, or add more layers for a deeper tan

Easy application with our luxury tanning mitt for a smooth, even finish.

Fast-drying, no fuss

Key Benefits

  • All skin types

  • pH balanced

  • Mānuka honey MGO 500+

Hero Ingredients

  • Jojoba Seed Oil

    Jojoba Seed Oil

    Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil

    Jojoba oil benefits the skin by providing deep moisture, acting as an antioxidant due to its high Vitamin E content, and regulating oil production by mimicking sebum, making it suitable for all skin types, including those with acne-prone or sensitive skin. It also possesses anti-inflammatory, antiseptic, and antibacterial properties that help soothe irritation, treat acne, promote wound healing, and fade dark spots and scars.  

    Jojoba oil is structurally similar to the natural oils (sebum) produced by the skin, allowing it to absorb easily and provide deep hydration without feeling greasy. 

  • Shea Butter

    Shea Butter

    Shea butter's main benefits for the skin are deep moisturising, soothing inflammation and irritation, promoting anti-aging by boosting collagen and cell turnover, and helping to reduce the appearance of scars and stretch marks. It also contains antioxidants and fatty acids that protect the skin barrier, soothe conditions like eczema, and can even help with minor skin issues such as sunburn and razor burn.

  • Mānuka Honey

    Mānuka Honey

    Leptospermum scoparium (Mānuka) Honey 

    Mānuka honey benefits the skin by acting as a natural humectant that hydrates and softens the skin, while its antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties help alleviate acne and soothe irritation. It also contains antioxidants that protect against premature aging and can support collagen production, leading to a more glowing, youthful complexion. 

    Hydration and softening.   Mānuka honey acts as a natural humectant, attracting and retaining moisture to keep the skin hydrated, soft, and supple.

    Forms a protective barrier: It helps the skin retain moisture and can improve dryness and leave your complexion feeling radiant. 

    Acne and blemish control: Its high concentration of antibacterial compounds helps prevent acne-causing bacteria and can be used as a spot treatment for blemishes.

    Mānuka honey calms irritation and reduces redness associated with acne and other inflammatory skin conditions. 

    Rich in antioxidants;  Mānuka honey contains antioxidants that help protect the skin from free radicals, which can cause premature aging.

    Promotes collagen production: It helps support collagen production, which is vital for maintaining skin firmness and elasticity.

    Exfoliates and brightens: By gently exfoliating dead skin cells and unclogging pores, it can reveal a smoother, more transparent, and more luminous complexion.

Geraldine T:

The Honey Bronze sunless tanning creme is amazing. Goes on easily, never leaves an orange residue. I never exfoliate beforehand - just make sure my legs are still slightly damp after my shower and it flows on well. The aroma is really nice, not false like some can be. In a short time I have a tan that looks natural. I reapply weekly. I have used various other brands and this is by far the best, ever. In fact a like all the Apicare products. Thank you

No allergic rash - I've tried many self-tanning products - this is the only one that hasn't given me an allergic rash - Smells fab as well.

We have a winner - It's not easy being pale, you're almost clear. Over the years, I have tried numerous self-tanning creams. Found this one to look so natural, if applied carefully, and it comes with none of the overpowering odours that many other self-tanners do. It's very lightly scented and turned me from translucent to a gentle brown in hours. Anyone with a normal pigment quota should get even better outcomes.
