FAQs
How often should I apply the Lancaster Golden Tan Maximizer After Sun Lotion?
For optimal results, apply the lotion generously once a day, preferably after showering or bathing, following sun exposure. Continue daily application to prolong your tan.
Can I use this lotion on my face?
While primarily designed for the body, many after-sun lotions can be used on the face. However, if you have particularly sensitive or acne-prone facial skin, consider using a dedicated facial after-sun or moisturizer to avoid potential issues.
Does this product prevent sunburn or peeling?
This product is an after-sun lotion and does not offer UV protection, so it cannot prevent sunburn. However, its soothing and hydrating properties can help alleviate discomfort from mild sunburn and reduce the likelihood of peeling by keeping the skin moisturized.
Is this product waterproof or sweat-resistant?
No, as an after-sun lotion, it is not designed to be waterproof or sweat-resistant. It is intended for post-exposure application and will absorb into the skin.
What's the difference between this and a regular body lotion?
While both provide hydration, the Lancaster Golden Tan Maximizer is specifically formulated with ingredients aimed at soothing skin after sun exposure and, crucially, prolonging your tan. Regular body lotions typically don't have these specialized tan-extending properties.
How long will a 250ml bottle typically last?
The duration depends on frequency of use and the amount applied. For daily full-body application during a one-week vacation, it might last that period. For occasional use, it could last much longer.
Troubleshooting
My tan isn't lasting as long as expected despite using the lotion.
Ensure you are applying the lotion generously and consistently every day after sun exposure and even on non-sun days. Factors like very hot showers, harsh scrubbing, or extremely dry skin can also contribute to quicker tan fading. Hydrate internally and externally.
My skin feels sticky or greasy after application.
You might be applying too much product at once. Try using a slightly smaller amount and massaging it in thoroughly until fully absorbed. Ensure your skin is clean and only slightly damp before application.
I experienced mild skin irritation after using the lotion.
While rare, individual sensitivities can occur. Discontinue use immediately if irritation persists. Perform a patch test on a small, inconspicuous area of skin before full application if you have sensitive skin or known allergies to cosmetic ingredients.
The lotion isn't absorbing well into my skin.
Make sure your skin is clean and free from other products (like heavy oils or sunscreens) before applying. Gently exfoliate once or twice a week to remove dead skin cells, which can improve absorption and tan evenness.
