General Instructions

Sobe Tan Sunless has a lower viscosity than most solutions, so turn your gun down when spraying. Two full ounces per person is the recommended amount, and two coats will give your clients a beautiful, natural glow.

Because our formula contains no FD&C dyes or pigments, you won't see a dark bronzer color on the skin immediately after spraying — just a soft caramel color guide that develops into a perfect, natural-looking tan. Sobe Tan Sunless is a universal shade that works for all skin tones.

This product is ideal for:

  • Clients with sensitive skin
  • Pregnant clients
  • Health-conscious clients who prefer organic, minimal-ingredient products
  • Clients allergic to alcohols, FD&C dyes, or fragrances
  • Older, drier, or damaged skin (our formula is more forgiving)
  • Spray tan technicians whose daily exposure to typical solutions causes irritation or fatigue

We deliberately exclude Erythrulose, which is not FDA-approved and has raised concerns in independent studies. With only six ingredients in the Bronzer formula (and just five in the Clear), the likelihood of a reaction is significantly lower than with conventional brands containing twenty or more ingredients.

Note: This product contains DHA. Clients with a known DHA allergy should not use this product. Perform a patch test for any client with sensitive skin or allergy concerns.

Sobe Tan Sunless has a one-year shelf life. Refrigerate to extend further.


Rapid Rinse Instructions (14% DHA)

Spray two full coats, using a minimum of 2 ounces per person (more for larger clients, but never exceeding 4 ounces).

Shower times:

  • Light tan: 2 hours
  • Medium tan: 3 hours
  • Dark tan: 4+ hours

Do not leave on longer than 24 hours.


Overnight Rinse Instructions (10% DHA)

Spray two full coats, using a minimum of 2 ounces per person. Leave on for a minimum of 6 hours — the longer it stays on, the deeper the tan will develop. Do not leave on longer than 24 hours.


Clear Rapid Rinse Instructions (14% DHA)

Perfect for clients who don't like instant bronzer and don't want any color transfer onto clothing the day of application.

Shower times:

  • Light tan: 2 hours
  • Medium tan: 3 hours
  • Dark tan: 4+ hours

Apply a minimum of 2 ounces per person. Without the visual cue of a bronzer, it's easy to under-apply — fill your spray gun cup with at least 2.5 ounces, since the last 0.5 oz often won't be picked up by the straw.

The Clear formula takes about 12 hours to begin developing color and up to 24 hours to fully develop.


About Sobe Tan

The future of sunless tanning has arrived. Sobe Tan founder Fabiola Trujillo created this clean luxury line out of concern for the chemicals we absorb through everyday products. After years of formulation work, she developed a sunless tanning solution with no FD&C dyes, alcohols, Erythrulose, chemical preservatives, or fragrance — just six simple ingredients.

The DHA in Sobe Tan Sunless is uniquely effective because it works alongside just five other ingredients, rather than competing with the twenty-plus found in conventional brands. Our 500 ml and 1 liter solutions are now packaged in custom matte aluminum bottles for a fully recyclable, plastic-free experience — a beautiful, natural tan that's good for your clients and the planet.
