THE PERFECT SUNLESS TAN We all know how dangerous the sun’s UV rays can be for our skin. With that in mind, do you expose your skin to get that perfect tan, hold your nose and subject yourself to that foul smelling chemical tan, or avoid the sun altogether and miss out on that sun-kissed summer glow? You’ll be pleased to know there’s a safe, natural and fabulously scented alternative! There are now two organic self tanning lotions from Lavera - one for the face, another for the body, that’s completely chemical and toxin free.

Two natural ingredients, vegetable-derived DHA (Dihydroxyactone) and the sugar agent Erythrulose, give your skin a wonderful fresh tan on a natural basis. These two ingredients react with the amino acids of the skin, resulting in a brownish tint of the pigment. This reaction is completely harmless and a safe alternative to chemical tanners.

As with all Lavera products, our self tanners are certified natural by the BDIH, contain organic ingredients and are free of parabens and other synthetic ingredients.

"This is the best self-tanner on the market. Non-toxic, and not at all smelly! It smoothes on like a luscious body lotion and after a few hours, reveals a truly flawless tan."

"For the past few years, I've managed to stay out of the sun because I am scared of skin cancer. But I missed having a tan. A friend recommended this self tanner and I LOVE it! Just exfoliate and then apply like a body lotion. I have not had any problems re: orange spots whatsoever. The smell is refreshing and the fact that lavera uses only natural/organic ingredients makes this a perfect product, especially for mothers and mothers-to-be. Highly recommend lavera's Self Tanner!"- Yvonne Schwab
