What Is a Self-Tanning Lotion?
A self-tanning lotion is a sunless tanner that you apply to your skin to achieve a perfect tan without sun exposure. The active ingredient, dihydroxyacetone (DHA), reacts with dead skin cells to temporarily darken them, creating a sun-kissed glow.
It helps to achieve a darkened completion while avoiding premature aging, wrinkles, hyperpigmentation, and increased risk of skin cancer. The best self-tanning lotions use an active ingredient called dihydroxyacetone (DHA). DHA is a colourless sugar that reacts with the dead skin cells on the epidermis (your skin’s outer layer), temporarily darkening them to mimic a sun-kissed glow. Our Luxe Tan lotion uses natural DHA that provides a natural-looking sunless tan without causing any chemical reactions with your skin, as with synthetically derived DHA.
"Pole Physics Luxe Tan Lotion uses natural DHA, providing a natural-looking tan without harsh chemicals."

Nice Scent: Lemon myrtle, lavender, and vanilla provide a pleasant fragrance.
One of our key goals in formulating this lotion was to come up with a self-tanning lotion that smells lovely, unlike the distinct and off-putting smell that most self-tanners have. The Pole Physics Luxe Tan formulation includes the Australian lemon myrtle that gives the lotion an amazing citrus fragrance besides its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antibacterial benefits.
The formulation also includes lavender and vanilla fragrances, which further give the lotion its sweet smell.

How to Remove Your Tan Fast
When you need to remove a tan quickly, use these methods:
- An exfoliating mitt: Lather up your exfoliating mitt with your favourite shower gel, then gently rub all over your tanned skin in a circular motion. This helps to remove the dead skin cells, which will come off with the tan.
- Baby oil: Baby oil will help plump your skin and enhance exfoliation. Simply lather your skin with baby oil and leave it on for about half an hour. Then rinse it off with water and a soft cloth.
- A body scrub: Scrubbing helps to remove dead skin cells and fade a fake tan fast. It's best to use a body scrub made with all-natural ingredients that aren’t too harsh for your skin, such as apricot and lemon.
How Long Does Fake Tan Last?
Pole Physics Luxe Tan provides a long-lasting tan effect, giving you a perfect tan even after 3 days of application.
How you treat your skin also greatly determines how long your tan will last.
To make your tan last even longer, be sure to moisturise your skin with an effective moisturiser daily.
For best results, moisturise daily with effective products like Pole Physics Arnica & Green Tea Blend.
HOT TIP: You can use our Aussie Lemon Myrtle lotion to extend your tan, or on your hands and feet while tanning. The fragrance in both lotions are the same, so no competing scents.
