Sunkissed Double Sided Exfoliating Mitt is a reusable two-grade exfoliating mitt designed for both pre-tan prep and post-tan removal. The softer side gently buffs and primes the skin before applying self-tan, while the firmer side strips away patchy or fading colour and old tan build-up — making it a versatile, single-tool answer to the most common self-tan problems.
About Sunkissed
Sunkissed is a British self-tan and bronzing brand owned by Rainbow Cosmetics, a family-run beauty business founded by John and Heather Sharman in 1990. Sunkissed launched in 2006, originally with bronzing gift sets, and was relaunched in 2018 as a 95% natural, vegan and cruelty-free range. The line is widely stocked across UK pharmacies, supermarkets and online beauty retailers.
Key features
- Two-grade fabric: A softer side for prepping the skin and a firmer side for removing tan — clearly colour-coded so you do not mix them up.
- Reusable and washable: Rinse clean after each use and air-dry away from direct sunlight.
- Hand-shaped design: Slips over the hand for full control, particularly useful around tricky areas such as elbows, knees, ankles and feet.
- Suitable for the whole body: Designed for use on legs, arms, back, chest and torso.
Who it's for
Designed for anyone who uses self-tan and wants more even, longer-lasting results. The two grades let you adapt the mitt to your routine — gentle exfoliation before applying a mousse, spray or lotion self-tan, or stronger buffing to remove a patchy or week-old tan before reapplying. Also useful as a general body exfoliator if you simply want smoother, brighter-looking skin.
How to use
- Pre-tan prep: In the shower or bath, soften the skin with warm water for a few minutes. Wet the soft side of the mitt and use circular motions over the body, focusing on dry areas such as elbows, knees and ankles. Rinse and pat dry, then apply self-tan once the skin is completely dry.
- Tan removal: Soak the skin in a warm bath or shower for at least 5–10 minutes. Wet the firmer side of the mitt and use longer, sweeping strokes to lift the old tan. Rinse the mitt frequently as you work.
- General exfoliation: Use the soft side once or twice a week as part of your normal showering routine to keep the skin smooth and improve absorption of body moisturiser.
- Aftercare: Rinse the mitt thoroughly in soapy water, squeeze out excess moisture, and hang to dry naturally between uses.
