Mrs Hinch raves about £25 bubble bath that removes fake tan with no scrubbing

Whether you’re a regular self tan fan or only wear it once in a blue moon for special occasions, we can all agree that one of the worst parts about it is getting it off. Whether you’ve had a mishap (hello patchy, uneven colour) or have just reached the “tiger bread” stage that means you need to start fresh, we’re all too familiar with the harsh, painful scrubbing needed to get it off.

However, Mrs Hinch has found a product that, in her own words, has “changed the fake tan game.” Posting on her Instagram stories, Mrs Hinch – whose real name is Sophie Hinchliffe – raved about the Rose & Caramel Purity Tan Removing Bubble Bath, which you can get your hands on for £25.

In her post, Sophie said: "I have never EVER found a fake tan remover to work like this one! Now I LOVE fake tan but I never liked the mission of scrubbing it off. But this stuff is UNBELIEVABLE! Changed the fake tan game for me! Definitely recommend it."

The Rose & Caramel Purity Tan Removing Bubble Bath gets added to your bath just like a regular bubble bath, then all you need to do is lie back and soak for around 20 minutes before gently buffing your skin with an exfoliating mitt. The formula provides a gentle chemical exfoliation and natural hydration, which loosens off the top layers of self tanner and breaks it down, leaving your skin soft and tan free.

If you have any particularly stubborn areas, you can also apply it directly onto your skin while you wait for your bath to run, giving it an extra boost. As there’s no need to scrub, your skin should feel soft, hydrated and nourished afterwards without that raw, tender feeling we usually associate with getting tan off.

You only need to add 50ml to running water for it to be effective, and considering it comes in a huge 500ml bottle you should get at least 10 uses out of each Purity Tan Removing Bubble Bath. It should also work on all types and brands of fake tan, so it doesn’t matter whether you’re a mousse, gel or cream kind of tanner, it’ll break it all down for you.

If you’re looking for something that works on specific areas – for example, if you’ve ended up with patchy hands or streaky legs – then Tanologist’s Tan Eraser, £12.99, is also a great item to have on hand. Not only does it effectively dissolve any tan remnants, but you can also use it as a pre-tan primer to exfoliate and hydrate your skin before application.

You could also try out the Bondi Sands Tan Eraser Gel, especially as it’s now got 50% off at Boots slashing the price from £16.99 to £8.50. You simply apply it to dry skin, wait five minutes then hop in the shower and use a wet facecloth to wipe away all your tan for a quick and easy fix.
