How to clean a fake tanning mitt

Hand washing

The first option you have available is to hand wash your fake tanning mitt. If you choose this method, ensure that the water is warm and not hot.

Be sure to massage the tan out of the mitt. Think of it like a makeup brush; a little bit of water is never enough to full clean it, is it? You need to keep gently pushing the tan out of the mitt.

You may want to place the mitt in warm water for 15-20 minutes beforehand to loosen some of the fake tan before you get hands-on.

Machine washing

If you’re lucky enough to have a machine that offers a 30 degree quick wash, then pop it in and away you go.

If not, choose the nearest setting to it – but remember, warm water not hot water.

How often should I wash my tanning mitt?

We recommend washing it down every time. It’ll help to keep the mitt clean, which means that your fake tan application is smooth and you don’t end up with any old crusty tan from the last times affecting your new glow.

Looking for a new fake tanning mitt that’s perfect for cleaning?
