Can you put Dove tan on your face?

Published in Self-Tanning 2 mins read

Yes, you can put Dove tan (specifically, Dove Summer Revived Face Cream) on your face. It is formulated to be suitable for both face and body.

Many people desire a sun-kissed glow without the harmful effects of the sun. Dove Summer Revived Face Cream is designed to gradually build a natural-looking tan while moisturizing your skin. Here's a breakdown:

  • Suitable for Face and Body: This means the formulation is generally gentle enough for the more sensitive skin on your face.
  • Gradual Tan: The tan develops over time, typically with daily use, allowing you to control the depth of color.
  • Moisturizing: Dove products are known for their moisturizing properties, which help prevent the dry, patchy look that can sometimes occur with self-tanners.

How to Use Dove Tan on Your Face:

  1. Cleanse Your Face: Start with a clean and dry face. Remove any makeup or other products.
  2. Apply Evenly: Use your fingertips to apply the Dove Summer Revived Face Cream evenly across your face, just as you would a normal moisturizer. Be sure to blend well around your hairline and jawline to avoid streaks.
  3. Wash Hands: Wash your hands thoroughly after application to avoid staining your palms.
  4. Allow to Dry: Let the product dry completely before applying makeup or other skincare products.
  5. Repeat Daily: For a deeper tan, repeat the application daily. Once you achieve your desired color, you can reduce the frequency of use to maintain your tan.

Important Considerations:

  • Exfoliation: Exfoliating your face 1-2 times a week can help ensure an even tan.
  • Sunscreen: Even with a self-tanner, it's crucial to wear sunscreen daily to protect your skin from harmful UV rays. Self-tanners do not provide sun protection.
  • Patch Test: Before applying the product to your entire face, perform a patch test on a small area to check for any allergic reactions or sensitivities.

In summary, Dove Summer Revived Face Cream is specifically designed to be used on the face to provide a gradual, natural-looking tan while keeping the skin moisturized.
