FAQ's
Below you'll find a list of the most frequently asked questions about Fake Bake products.

Is Fake Bake suitable for everyone?

The self tanning products are recommended by dermatologists. However, if you have sensitive skin or questions about using our self tanning products, we recommend that you test the product on a small area of your body. Let is set for a few hours and discontinue use if signs of irritation or rash appears. Common sense dictates to avoid contact with the eyes, its for external use only so do not swallow and of course, keep out of reach of children.

Is Fake Bake safe to use in pregnancy?

Fake Bake only comes in to contact with the upper most layers of the epidermis (skin) and does not penetrate into the blood stream whatsoever, therefore, yes it is safe to use during pregnancy. However we would also have you take note, that you should always perform the patch test to check for sensitivity as when you are pregnant, your hair and skin may not behave the way it used to and you may find that you are sensitive to products you used when you were not pregnant.

How long does Fake Bake cream take to dry?

Because the level of moisture in each skin type varies, drying time will also vary slightly. In general, 20 minutes is sufficient time for the cream product to dry. Many choose to apply the product several hours before going to bed to ensure that the product has dried completely. If you are using the mousse or the Extreme Gel however, you'll find that these products dry within seconds so you do need to work faster when applying those ones.

How long does Fake Bake last?

This is one of our favorite questions! We boast that our product needs to be applied on the average of only once or twice a week. Of course, you will determine your own maintenance schedule. Remember, you are in control, you can deepen your tan simply by applying more coats of the product.

Can I use Fake Bake in the sun or with sunbeds?

In marketing research it was discovered that the use of the product with the sun or with a sun bed actually accelerates the tanning process. Stimulating the dark pigment of the skin, known as Melanin, accelerates any form of sun tanning. Those who wish to combine the product with an additional sun tanning regimen will see quicker and more satisfying results than ever before. For this reason, many Suntan Salons carry the products to use with sun beds as a Melanin Accelerator to promote tanning. Our product is also ideal for those who cover their face during tanning or who have trouble tanning the sides of their bodies or other problem areas. NOTE: We do recommend the use of SPF or sun block when engaging in any form of sun tanning.

Does Fake Bake contain sunscreens or SPF?

Our laboratory specialists recommended that we did not add any of the above to our product. So many of our customers want different degrees of sunscreens or sun blocks that it would be impossible to satisfy all of them. We recommend that you use the sunscreen best suited to your skin type.

Does Fake Bake use animal testing?

No. We use no animal testing because our product contains no harmful ingredients that would have required extensive animal testing.
