Staying hydrated and using nourishing products helps maintain skin&#8217;s moisture, which keeps your tan from fading or peeling.<\/div>\n<div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1766160409566\">\n<h3 class=\"schema-faq-question\">Why should you exfoliate before applying fake tan?<\/h3>\n<p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Exfoliating removes dead skin cells and reveals fresh skin, giving you a smoother base for fake tan. This helps the tan last longer and prevents patchiness or uneven colour after application.<\/div>\n<div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1766160409567\">\n<h3 class=\"schema-faq-question\">How does hot water affect your tan?<\/h3>\n<p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Hot water can dehydrate your skin, causing tan to fade faster and appear patchy or flaky. Using cooler water and adding skin-nourishing bath products helps your tan last and keeps your skin healthy.<\/div>\n<div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1766160409568\">\n<h3 class=\"schema-faq-question\">What foods can help make your tan last longer?<\/h3>\n<p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Foods rich in beta-carotene, like those with natural red or orange pigment, can help your tan last longer. A &#8216;healthier&#8217; diet supports cell turnover and keeps your skin glowing.<\/div>\n<div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1766160409569\">\n<h3 class=\"schema-faq-question\">When is it most important to moisturise your skin for a tan?<\/h3>\n<p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">It is especially important to moisturise morning and night during any period your skin is tanned.
