Palmer's Cocoa Butter Formula Natural Bronze Gradual Tanning Moisturizer for All Skin Tones 250ml

Palmer’s Cocoa Butter Formula Natural Bronze Gradual Tanning Moisturizer 250 ml is a buildable self-tanning body lotion that gradually develops a natural, sun-kissed bronze glow while providing deep moisturisation. The creamy, quick-dry formula blends rich, natural Cocoa Butter with vegetable-derived tanning ingredients and vitamin E to support skin hydration and enhance comfort without irritation. Suitable for all skin tones, this gentle body moisturiser encourages a healthy-looking glow over repeated daily use, with a signature creamy cocoa scent.

Key Benefits:

• Gradually builds a natural tan from subtle glow to deeper bronze.

• Deep hydration and moisture retention from cocoa butter and glycerin.

• Streak-free, quick-dry formula for smooth application.

• Paraben & phthalate-free, vegan-friendly and dermatologist-approved.

• For all skin tones — from fair to dark, control the intensity of colour year-round. 

Directions:

• For external use only.

• Apply evenly to clean, dry, recently exfoliated skin as your daily moisturiser.

• Focus on areas such as arms, legs, torso and shoulders; use sparingly on elbows, knees, ankles and wrists.

• Allow approximately 5 minutes before dressing to reduce transfer.

• Colour will develop over the next 8 hours. Reapply daily to deepen or maintain the bronzed look as desired.

• For a more even, mess-free application, use with a tanning mitt.

• Wash hands thoroughly after application to avoid staining palms.

Tips: Best results are seen on evenly exfoliated skin; follow with your usual moisturiser on non-tanned areas as preferred.
