Ellen’s advice
How to choose
A beautiful self-tan starts with good prep. Dead skin cells absorb more self-tan, so dry areas like knees, elbows and ankles turn darker if you don’t exfoliate them first. With the right prep you get an even colour that also fades nicely.
How to choose, with Azure Tan products:
- Exfoliate: the Exfoliator Mitt or the Smooth & Remove Tan Exfoliating Scrub, which also removes old self-tan.
- Wash: the Preserve & Protect tan-friendly bodywash, so your colour lasts longer.
- Moisturise: the Firm & Hydrate Body Butter (tan free).
- Finish: Tan Drying Powder with the Tanbuki blending brush.
Exfoliate 24 hours before applying self-tan and avoid heavy lotions or oils right before application, they form a barrier. Then choose your self-tan.

Who helps you?
I'm Ellen, the Ellen behind LLN.beauty (say it as Ellen beauty). Beauty therapist since 2003, with my online beauty store since 2008. In 2019 I trained in orthomolecular therapy at KPNI, to tackle skin problems from the inside as well.
For years I treated clients in my salon. I stopped, because a treatment only works for a short while. Lasting results come from the basics you do yourself at home. That's why I now help you with a routine you'll actually stick to.
