How to choose the right self tan colour tone?

Choosing the right self tan colour tone comes down to your natural skin undertone and the depth of glow you want to achieve:

  • Fair to Light Skin - Go for a natural, subtle bronze. A gradual tan or light self-tan mousse gives a soft sun-kissed finish without looking too dark.
  • Medium or Olive Skin - Opt for a buildable glow such as the gradual tan to reach your desired shade, or one layer of our self-tan mousse to enhance your natural warmth and deliver a golden glow.
  • Deep Skin Tones - Choose our self-tan mousse that enhances radiance and balances undertones, leave on for up to 5 hours for a deep bronze.


Tip: Three Warriors’ organic self-tan range is designed to suit all skin tones with buildable colour. Start light, then layer to deepen your glow until you find your perfect shade.

How to know your self tan shade?

To find your perfect self tan shade, consider these quick tips:

Match to your desired depth:
If you want a natural, everyday glow, choose a gradual tan build and customise your glow.

For an event-ready bronze, pick our self-tan mousse and leave on from anywhere between 1-5 hours for your desired shade. 

Test before you tan: Always patch-test on a small area of skin to see how the colour develops with your undertones.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTION

How to choose the right self tan colour tone?

Your self tan colour should mimic the way your skin naturally tans in the sun. The goal is a natural, sun-kissed bronze— never orange or streaky.

Three Warriors uses olive-based formulas enriched with Tasmanian ingredients to create a realistic, golden-brown finish that works with your natural undertones, not against them.

For fairer skin, a lighter golden bronze looks most natural.

For medium to deep skin tones, a richer, deeper bronze enhances radiance beautifully.

Because our tans are buildable, you’re in control of the depth of your glow - one layer of gradual tan for a soft wash of colour, or two for a deep, event-ready bronze.
