IN THE BEGINNING THERE WAS TAN... TAN-LUXE Founder and CEO, Marc Elrick identified that clients in his hair salon had great hair, great make-up but a less than great self tan. Surprisingly, most clients blamed their streaky, uneven color on their own application technique and had come to accept that they had little control over their end results. OUR LIGHT BULB MOMENT Q: If consumers could control and customize the color of their make-up, then why not self tan? With this in mind, Marc began to create a line of self tanning products that would address each of the key concerns the consumer had - the streaking / the smell / the blocked pores / the unnatural color. And in July 2015 TAN-LUXE launched The FACE and the tanning world has never been the same.
WE ARE TAILOR-MADE TANNING TAN-LUXE creates dynamic products that give the consumer an undetectable, tailor-made tan and their best, super luxe, feel good skin EVER. The brand s core products, The FACE and The BODY are concentrates that work in synergy with your existing skincare regime and turn your favorite moisturizer, oil or lotion into your own custom-made self tanner. We call this TAILOR-MADE TANNING. Each product is packed full of high performing natural actives, skin boosting ingredients including Raspberry Seed Oil, Aloe Vera, Vitamins B, C and E, and our unique Ecocert organic tanning actives.
WE ARE TRANSPARENT TANNING We re all about innovation and challenging the norm. We don t believe in color guides (the dark stain used in traditional self tanning products). These synthetic dyes break down tanning actives and cause streaking / uneven fading / blocked pores and skin dehydration. So we developed color free, crystal clear formulations that deliver amazing results every time. And we call this TRANSPARENT TANNING. Oh and even better - this means our products don t transfer onto white sheets / towels / clothing / boyfriends
WE ARE CLEAN TANNING All of our products are: vegan friendly cruelty free non-toxic natural Eco Cert organic tanning actives We manufacture in our own in-house lab and have full traceability of every ingredient that goes into our formulations. All of our products are formulated without: X X X X X X X chemicals of concern parabens phthalates synthetic dyes mineral oils sulphates methylisothiazolinone We use ingredients that are certified organic yet deliver outstanding results. We listen to and are driven by our audience on social. We are constantly testing and trialling new concepts and work back from the outcome our consumers crave. We are obsessed with creating products that we personally want to use day in day out. And if it doesn t do it for us then its a non-starter.

TAN-LUXE TECHNOLOGY HERE S OUR SCIENCE... TRIPLE-TAN TECHNOLOGY Using the most eco-friendly production methods, we source three of the highest quality and naturally derived tanning actives from pure rapeseed oil and sugar beet. Scientifically formulated by our in-house lab at a low ph of 4.5, our Triple-Tan Technology is an exclusive composition that reacts with the amino acids on the skin s surface to naturally enhance melanin without staining the skin. MOISTURE BALANCE COMPLEX Organically sourced and naturally derived, our Moisture Balance Complex is a revolutionary compound of Raspberry Seed Oil, Vitamin E and Aloe Vera. Containing the highest phytosteral levels of any vegetable or fruit, Raspberry Oil is one of nature s most powerful anti-oxidants. Renowned for its rich moisturising properties, it protects cells from free radical damage such as fine lines and ageing whilst also improving skin elasticity, helping to prevent photo-damage and dryness. Combined with Aloe Vera to soothe and condition, this expert formulation is also rich in Beta Carotene, Vitamin C and Vitamin E, hydrating the skin and improving its natural firmness with powerful anti-oxidant protection. ODOURLITE FRAGRANCE TECHNOLOGY Scientifically formulated and tested with amino acids, our Odourlite Fragrance Technology expertly minimises the outdated, traditional self-tan smell left behind by more traditional self tanning brands. Tested at ingredient level by our in-house lab and formulated at low ph of 4.5, this exclusive composition is blended with Raspberry Seed Oil to leave skin scented with a light, delicate natural fragrance. CELLUTONE COMPLEX Contains the vital cellulite reducing blend of caffeine and palmitoyl-carnitine which engage the synergistic action of these opposing molecules to stimulate skin firmness by breaking down fat cells. This exclusive hydroglycolic solution promotes firmness by de-stocking fat cells to increase skin tonicity. In vivo studies showed that after 28 days, 73% of people tested notice more tonic skin, 78% had firmer skin and 85% noticed less slack skin. TRI-COLLAGEN BOOSTER Selected from 300 potential formulations and compounds, our Tri-Collagen Booster is scientifically formulated with HRGP s glycopeptides to promote collagen production, smooth the skin surface and reduce premature ageing. Naturally derived from soybean HRGP s, it is rich in highly purified glycopeptides to boost collagen synthesis by consolidating the dermal mattress and reducing fine lines. In vivo studies showed our Tri-Collagen Booster to be 78% more effective in making the skin appear smoother and more youthful when tested against a placebo. HYDRA-TAN FORMULA Using exclusive stain-free science our Hydra-Tan Technology has revolutionised the market by pioneering Transparent Tanning. Specifically formulated using a unique blend of purified water, organically derived tanning actives and natural ingredients, skin is left feeling hydrated and nourished with a naturally enhanced flawless glow.

AND WHY DO WE DO IT? Because everyone should experience the confidence and power of looking the very best version of themselves. And we won t stop until we ve changed the tanning status quo - the mindset that self tanning is out dated / low rent and not for me. We want to empower and inspire more self love. And we get that a great tan alone won t change the world but positive vibes can. And that s what we deliver. So in an uncertain world the very least we can do is offer a sunny disposition, a rose tinted filter and no drama tanning to our audience. It s what we live by. It s our #tanifesto. TL x
