What Base Colour is the 1 Hour Express Ultra Dark?
Our 1 Hour Express Ultra Dark Self Tan is a green based self tan. This is the most popular self tan base colour and it looks great on most skin types, giving it a natural tan finish. The only thing turning green is the bronzer, which is a temporary colour, this is what is washed off in the morning after you've allowed your tan to develop. The green tone is the initial colour guide application and not the final result. The colour base can be more apparent in lighter skin tones but will develop into a lovely golden bronze.
What shade will the 1 Hour Express Ultra Dark develop into?
The 1 Hour Express Ultra Dark will develop into your most natural, darkest tint for your skin tone.
Does the 1 Hour Express Ultra Dark dry quickly?
The 1 Hour Express Ultra Dark is an aerated foam which dries on the skin quicker than a Self Tanning Mousse, making it a touch dry self tanning solution.
Can you leave the 1 Hour Express Ultra Dark on the skin for longer than 1 Hour?
While the 1 Hour Express Ultra Dark will provide a natural tint within just 1 hour. You can customise the 1 Hour Express Ultra Dark to suit your preferred shade of bronze. For a natural tan, rinse after 1 hour. For a deeper tan, leave on for 3 + hours. Your full tan results will continue to develop for 10 - 22+ hours post rinsing.
What is the best way to apply the 1 Hour Express Ultra Dark?
We recommend using the Bali Body Luxe Tanning Mitt to ensure a smooth, streak free self tan and minimal product wastage.
How long will the 1 Hour Express Self Tanning Foam last on my skin?
The 1 Hour Express Ultra Dark will last approximately 5-7 days when used in conjunction with daily application of a moisturising body lotion. Hydrated skin will ensure a longer lasting tan. We recommend using our Antixiodant Body Whip which has been formulated to assist in extending your self tan.
Can you use the Hour Express Ultra Dark on your face?
While the 1 Hour Express Ultra Dark contains nourishing oils making it extremely gentle to apply to the face, we recommend using any of our face self tanners for an even better result.
How many applications will I get from one bottle of 1 Hour Express Ultra Dark?
One bottle of the 1 Hour Express Ultra Dark will provide approximately 6-8 full body coats. Usage depends on each individuals application.
Is the 1 Hour Express Ultra Dark pregnancy safe?
Yes this product is safe to use during pregnancy and breastfeeding, however we always recommend consulting with a healthcare professional if you have concerns.
Our Express Ultra Dark can be washed off after 1 hour for an enhanced natural tint. For deeper results, leave on for 3+ hours. Once the colour guide has been rinsed, your tan will continue to develop for 10+ hours, leaving you with an ultra dark tan that will compliment your natural skin tone.
This is an entirely customisable self tan. Let it develop for 1 hour before rinsing off for a natural looking bronzed glow, 2 hours for a deep tan and 3+ hours for the darkest result possible. This green based formula is most suited to individuals with a medium skin tone, giving a rich, chocolatey finish.Our 1 Hour Express Ultra Dark continues to develop once you have rinsed off the initial colour guide. Refrain from using soap for the first 8 hours after applying to ensure an ultra dark finish.

Thanks for your feedback! - SSarahVerified ReviewerI recommend this productSkin Tone FairRated 5 out of 5 stars4 days agoThe absolute best
I’ve been self tanning with a dark color guide for over 13 years now and after a while the smell, no matter how much companies say their product has none, started to get to me. I did a little research and found this product along with the lotion, I use both to achieve the color I like. I love the color pay off, most natural and hassle free tanning product I’ve used.

Thanks for your feedback! - SFSoledad F. E.Verified BuyerI recommend this productSkin Tone FairRated 4 out of 5 stars6 days agoProbably the best self tan
Im in doubt between the clean gel and this one. I would say this might be the best self tan I’ve ever tried (and I’ve tried a lot…) and the clean gel makes the fake tan to last more. Definitely will repurchase again.
I don’t give 5 stars as 1hour is not enough for me to get the tan I like. Better keep it for 2 hours.

Thank you so much for your thoughtful feedback 💛 We’re so happy to hear this is one of the best tans you’ve tried! We really appreciate your tip on development time and your support — it means a lot to us! - RYRebecca Y.Verified BuyerI recommend this productSkin Tone FairRated 5 out of 5 stars6 days agojust pure perfection
The most natural undertone self tan color i have ever tried. The result looks like I have been soaking in the sun in Greece for two weeks. The orange / yellow and green tinted self tanners have been such a problem for me previously and this is the first one that ACTUALLY looks like i have been in the sun. So easy to apply and not messy at all which i love. Also doesnt leave a bad self tanner scent after i washed it.
