Don't miss out on perfect vacation photos, beach days, or just feeling confident in your everyday skin. Discover the secret to a perfect, sun-kissed glow with our Self Tanner Body Lotion, now in a travel-friendly size.

Say goodbye to harsh chemicals and hello to nourishing ingredients like coconut oil, shea butter, and cranberries, blended with sugar-beet derived DHA for a natural tan. This lotion is more than just a self-tanner; it's a hydrating skin treatment that leaves you feeling refreshed and radiant.

DHA (sugar cane-derived)

DHA (sugar cane-derived) (Dihydroxyacetone) Vegan

Native To: Germany

Benefits: Plant-derived DHA that develops a natural bronze tone. Our sugar cane-derived DHA is ECOCERT certified and non-GMO. DHA reacts by temporarily darkening dead skin cells on the surface — similar to how a cut apple browns over time — for a true golden-bronze glow without UV exposure.

Coconut Oil

Coconut Oil (Cocos nucifera) Vegan

Native To: Philippines

Benefits: Plant-derived emollient rich in fatty acids that moisturizes and nourishes skin. Softens dryness and supports a smooth, hydrated feel, with natural antimicrobial properties.

Also Found in:

Witch Hazel

Witch Hazel (Hamamelis Virginiana) Vegan

Native To: North America

Benefits: From relieving skin irritations to tightening your pores, witch hazel is one ingredient you can always count on for good skin health. Witch hazel does an incredible job of clearing the skin of excess oil, and therefore acts as a serious acne fighter. This ingredient reduces inflammation, wards off infections, and protects your skin against damage because it is highly rich in tannins (a.k.a. powerful antioxidants that will always have your skin’s back).

Shea Butter

Shea Butter (Butyrospermum Parkii) Vegan

Native To: Africa

Benefits: Filled with vitamins and fatty acids, shea butter softens, conditions, and moisturizes skin all while combating inflammation. It gives a little extra love to that dry skin and nourishes it thoroughly. It gives a little extra love to that dry skin and nourishes it thoroughly.

Self Tanner Body Lotion Ingredients:

Water (Aqua), *Aloe Barbadensis (Aloe Vera) Leaf Juice, *Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea) Butter, Dihydroxyacetone (DHA, sugar cane-derived), Cetyl Alcohol, Stearyl Alcohol, *Cocos Nucifera (Coconut) Oil, *Glycerin (Vegetable), *Camellia Oleifera (Japanese Green Tea) Leaf Extract, *Punica Granatum (Pomegranate) Extract, *Hamamelis Virginiana (Witch Hazel) Extract, *Vaccinium Macrocarpon (Cranberry) Fruit Extract, Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil, Argania Spinosa Kernel (Argan) Oil, Propanediol, Ethylhexylglycerin, Potassium Sorbate, Cocos Nucifera (Coconut) Fruit Extract, Vanilla Planifolia Fruit Extract. *Indicates Certified Organic Ingredients
  • Step 1 — Prep
    Begin with gentle exfoliation using a loofah, exfoliating pad, or body scrub to remove dead skin cells for an even, longer-lasting result. Apply a light layer of moisturizer to feet, ankles, wrists, and elbows beforehand, as these areas absorb product more readily. Allow one to two days after shaving before application.
  • Step 2 — Apply
    Dispense a quarter-size amount onto a mitt or applicator brush. Begin at the legs and work upward in long, sweeping motions for a seamless finish. Use a lighter touch on wrists, ankles, and hands, blending carefully. For the back, a back applicator helps ensure even coverage. Wash hands thoroughly if applying without a mitt.
  • Step 3 — Develop
    Wait at least one hour before showering, swimming, or exercising. Full color develops within 6–8 hours. For a deeper shade, apply a second coat after approximately one hour.
We're confident you'll love your glow. If you're not 100% satisfied, contact us within 60 days for a full refund. No questions asked.

The Routine

EXFOLIATE

Exfoliate first so your tan can grip fresh skin for a smoother, more even glow. Skip oil-based scrubs—they can leave a film that causes streaking and uneven coverage. If you shave, wait at least 24 hours before tanning so skin isn’t irritated when you apply.

However, some experienced orange discoloration, streaking, and splotchy results. A few noted skin irritation and inconsistent performance on different body areas. Price concerns were mentioned.

  • A few hours later, I had a very even beautiful tan!

Amazing self tanner

This tanner, by far, is the easiest to use. It looks natural and doesn’t smell awful. It never streaks and rubs right in. Thanks for actually making one that works!

AMAZING!!!

I had exactly zero faith in this tanner because it's such a clean formula, but it's awesome!!! I didn't tan my stomach so I could compare, and it's actually SO DARK!!! I bought medium. It doesn't stain white clothes, the ingredients are ultra clean, barely any smell to it except a hint of a coconut smell, super hydrating, and it's goes on white so you see any spot you've missed, and most of all, it's NOT STICKY when you sleep in it!!! I HATE sticky tanners. This is almost as pretty of a color as my Loving Tan mousse, but that one always stains my clothes.

Starting with a 2 star will update if I see a difference.
Why 2 star?
1. I look like an oompaloompa definitely orange.
2. Sure it smells good goin on and then immediately smells of sunless tanner or as my husband says “you used tanner again huh, you smell like cat piss”
3. This isn’t their fault but no base color means missed spots no matter how hard you try.
4. Those classic orange dried out looking palms and feet, yay.

Oh and I did two stars because you can see a difference it’s just a non desirable difference.

Pros. It didn’t stain my white sheets ( that’s where it stops)

Mother Daughter Trail

My daughter and I tried this product together. She found out this past year that she has skin cancer at 21. she was devastated and she loved being out in the sun however she needed to find an alternative that was safe. it has been a great alternative for her. She enjoys the product. However, it’s a little bit too dark for my taste. Since I have mature skin, it tends bring out, age spots more than I would like. Other than that great product goes on smooth enjoy the fact that it does not smell like you are wearing tanning lotion all day. My daughter will be purchasing this product again.

Hi Farrah, thank you for sharing your experience. We're glad to hear your daughter enjoys the product and that it provides a safe alternative. We appreciate your feedback on the shade and will take it into consideration. Wishing you both the best!

I love the whole Beauty By Earth self-tanning line

I love the whole Beauty By Earth self-tanning line. I find the Self Tanner Body Lotion to work best (and most even tan) for me. I use it in tandem with the Beauty By Earth Face Tanner Lotion. I've used MANY different self-tanners (trust me--I've run the gamut!) and this is the BEST ever! Quick drying, bronze glow, and less odor, and less transfer to clothing/bed sheets.

Soft glow

I was very skeptical, but decided to give it a try. It was worth the effort. I have a nice soft glow no streaks!! I did have a small amount of staining on my hands around any calluses so I should’ve washed my hands a couple of times while it was drying, but all in all very happy with the color it even survived having a pedicure scrub😍 we’ll purchase this again
