We chat with Tan-Luxe’s Global Training Expert Alexandra DiMarchi about her favourite products to achieve a flawless and healthy-looking glow.

Having specialised in airbrush tanning services since 2014, DiMarchi has worked with some of LA’s most renowned celebrities, including Shay Mitchell and Victoria’s Secret model Kelsey Merrit – Tan-Luxe has now become the go-to tan for red carpet events, such as the Grammys.

To achieve the ‘ultimate at home tan’, DiMarchi has shared some of her favourite tips and tricks:

  • It’s essential to ensure your skin is properly prepped to avoid a streak-free and uneven tan. Whether you use a physical or chemical exfoliation, DiMarchi says to focus on your elbows, knees, hands and feet and follow by moisturising the drier areas of your body.
  • To achieve that celebrity glow, DiMarchi recommends using The Face Drops (RRP $59) and The Body Drops (RRP $75) from Tan-Luxe. Whether you’re after a sun-kissed shine or a more intense bronzed look, the tanning drops allow you to completely customise your tan shade.
  • When it comes to the application of your tan, mix 1-12 drops in with your favourite body moisturiser or oil in the palm of your hands, then apply evenly all over your body. Wash the product off your hands thoroughly, as you don’t want these to stain. To hide the evidence of a fake tan, DiMarchi suggests using a cleansing wipe to remove excess product from your palms and in between your fingers.
  • Lastly, to maintain your colour, DiMarchi encourages you to use a product that will deposit slightly less colour, like The Gradual (RRP $60). This is a lightweight moisturiser that will help with the longevity of your tan and will help maintain that gorgeous glow.
