Benefits
  • Tan-Enhancing
  • Complexion-Unifying
  • Hydrating
Bodyologist Summer Dew Self-Tanning Drops are concentrated, customisable glow drops that deliver a natural, even, sunless tan while supporting skin health. Dihydroxyacetone (DHA), the gold-standard tanning active, develops gradual, believable colour without streaks or orange tones, while Erythrulose refines and extends the tone for a smoother, longer-lasting finish. Glycerin and Hyaluronic Acid attract and hold moisture to keep skin soft, plump, and luminous, preventing the dryness and patchiness often associated with self-tanners. Niacinamide helps calm redness and improve overall texture, ensuring an even canvas for colour development. Simply mix with your usual body lotion or cream to build customizable warmth.

The Benefits

  • - + Tan-Enhancing (DHA-Activated Melano-Mimetic Technology)
  • - + Complexion-Unifying (Anti-Blotchiness)
  • - + Hydrating
Tan-Enhancing (DHA-Activated Melano-Mimetic Technology)

Tan-enhancing products are formulated to deepen and prolong a bronzed appearance through the controlled use of Dihydroxyacetone (DHA), a sugar-derived compound that initiates the Maillard reaction on the stratum corneum (the outermost layer of the skin). DHA binds with free amino acids and peptides in keratin, leading to the formation of melanoidin pigments that visually mimic a natural tan.

To optimise tone and longevity, these formulas often include humectants (like glycerin or hyaluronic acid) to maintain hydration, antioxidants to prevent oxidative degradation of the tan, and barrier-supportive actives to reduce patchiness and uneven fade. When properly balanced, DHA-based enhancers offer a controlled, photodamage-free alternative to tanning, delivering a uniform, golden-brown hue while supporting skin integrity and radiance.

Complexion-Unifying (Anti-Blotchiness)

Evening skin tone is all about reducing blotchiness and achieving a more uniform complexion. Skincare and body care products designed for this purpose use a blend of active ingredients, including soothing agents, anti-pigmentation compounds, antioxidants, and skin-restoring elements. These ingredients work together to diminish redness, inflammation, and pigment irregularities caused by inflammation, while also strengthening and protecting your skin against environmental irritants and future damage. This promotes healing and resilience, leaving your skin more balanced, radiant, and beautiful.

Hydrating

Hydration is all about the water content in your skin that keeps it supple and healthy. Humectants, ingredients with water-binding properties, deliver this hydration by attracting water molecules from the atmosphere. For the best results, apply hydrating serums right after a shower. Humectants not only replenish your skin's hydration but also enhance its water retention, creating a long-lasting hydration reservoir. Adding humectants like hyaluronic acid to your routine will restore your skin's healthy glow, minimize fine lines, and provide a plumping effect.

Active Ingredients

  • - + Low Molecular Weight Hyaluronic Acid (Sodium Hyaluronate)
  • - + Glycerin
  • - + Dihydroxyacetone (DHA)
Low Molecular Weight Hyaluronic Acid (Sodium Hyaluronate)

Low Molecular Weight Hyaluronic Acid (LMW-HA) is a smaller, more penetrative form of hyaluronic acid. Unlike high molecular weight forms that primarily hydrate the skin’s surface, LMW-HA has the ability to penetrate deeper into the epidermis, where it attracts and binds water to maintain optimal moisture levels from within. This deep hydration helps improve skin elasticity, firmness, and smoothness, while reducing the appearance of fine lines and dehydration-induced wrinkles. Additionally, LMW-HA supports skin barrier repair and enhances overall suppleness, making the complexion look plumper and more resilient. It is ideal for dehydrated, dull, or mature skin, and especially those in need of long-lasting hydration and improved texture.

  • - + Glycerin
  • - + Dihydroxyacetone (DHA)
Glycerin

Glycerin is a potent humectant commonly used in skincare for its powerful hydrating properties. It works by attracting water molecules from the atmosphere and retaining them in the deeper layers of the skin, effectively boosting hydration reservoir. This helps to plump up the skin, resulting in reduced dehydration lines and a soft, supple complexion.

  • - + Low Molecular Weight Hyaluronic Acid (Sodium Hyaluronate)
  • - + Glycerin
  • - + Dihydroxyacetone (DHA)
Dihydroxyacetone (DHA)

Dihydroxyacetone (DHA) is a naturally derived sugar that serves as the active ingredient in fake tanning products. When applied to the skin, it reacts with amino acids in the outer layer, resulting in a sun-kissed tan without sun exposure.

The Importance Of Hydration

Hydration is vital for maintaining healthy, radiant skin. Properly hydrated skin retains moisture, which helps maintain its elasticity, plumpness and natural barrier function. This barrier protects against environmental stressors like pollution and bacteria while preventing moisture loss. Dehydrated skin, on the other hand, can become dry, flaky and prone to irritation, fine lines and breakouts. In skincare, using hydrating ingredients like hyaluronic acid, glycerin, squalane and ceramides can help lock in moisture, keeping the skin balanced and supple. Using moisturisers consistently is essential for promoting long-term skin health and resilience.
