What is Tandae Tanning Face Mist?

• Formula only reacts with skin particles and therefore will not stain clothes or your hair line

How to use it

The Tandae Tanning Face Mist is super easy to use. I like to do my night time skincare as normal, and then spray a few times over my face and neck, and use my fingers to smooth it over my skin. Be sure to wash your hands after use.

Why I Love It

There are a few reasons this has quickly earned a spot in my top shelf.

1. So Easy to Use

This really couldn’t be simpler to apply. I do my full skincare routine – cleanse, serum, moisturiser – then give my face a few spritzes of the mist. I then just smooth it over my face just to make sure it’s blended and then quickly wash my hands. It fits so neatly into my evening routine and genuinely feels foolproof.

2. Skincare-Friendly

One of the main things I love about this Tandae mist is that you apply it after your skincare, which I think helps buffer the effects of DHA on the skin. If you’re conscious of the potential ageing effects of self-tan actives, this is a brilliant way to reduce that risk while still getting a beautiful glow.

3. Only Need a Few Sprays

It’s really economical. I just use 3 to 4 sprays and I find this is enough for a lovely, even colour. I feel like this bottle is going to last me absolutely ages, which definitely adds to its value for money.

4. No Smell, No Drying the Skin

There’s no noticeable scent, which is a huge win, plus, it doesn’t dry out my skin at all.

The Colour Payoff & Tone

This is where Tandae really stands out for me. The tone is absolutely beautiful. It is natural, not too golden, and definitely not orange. It gives a rich, healthy-looking tan that feels like you, but glowier.

One thing I’ve noticed that really sets this apart from other face tanners is that it doesn’t worsen my hyperpigmentation. A lot of facial tans can deepen any existing pigment, but I haven’t found that with this at all.

When I look in the mirror in the morning, I just look really fresh and healthy, even if I don’t feel it, which is always a good start to the day!

How Does It Compare to St Tropez Face Mist?

Earlier this summer I reviewed the St Tropez Self Tan Purity Face Mist, and while I really liked that for a super subtle and easy to use glow, I find Tandae gives a much richer, deeper colour in fewer uses.

The St Tropez mist gives a soft glow, which is great if you want something very subtle, but Tandae gives a more noticeable tan that still looks incredibly natural. I’d say it’s ideal if you want to skip makeup altogether, as it adds such a lovely warmth and evenness to the skin.

Application Tips

• Always mist onto clean, moisturised skin. Your regular skincare acts as a protective barrier and helps smooth out application.
• Hold the bottle around 6-8 inches from your face, and do 2–4 light spritzes, covering all areas.
• You can pat it in lightly with your fingers, but it’s really not necessary.
• I usually use it before bed, and wake up to a perfectly developed tan.

Ingredients & Formula

For those who like to deep dive into what’s in their products, you can check out the full ingredient list here. It’s vegan, cruelty-free and designed with sensitive skin in mind.

I haven’t had any breakouts or irritation from this, and I’ve been using it every couple of days.

Final Thoughts

If you’re after a quick and easy facial tanning mist that fits seamlessly into your routine, then the Tandae Tanning Face Mist is definitely worth a look.

Pros:

• Incredibly easy to use
• Applies over skincare
• Natural, healthy-looking colour
• Doesn’t irritate or dry skin
• No strong smell
• Doesn’t worsen pigmentation

It’s the kind of product that just works. It’s quietly brilliant, effortless, and effective. The fact that the bottle will last quite a long time for me is also a bonus.

I am now really excited to try the body tans. I have the shade Dark, which I will give a go, even though it’s no secret that I am 100% an Ultra Dark kind of girl. I will keep you posted!!
