Finding flawless tanning products that are organic, toxin-free, vegan, and cruelty-free has been incredibly difficult — until now! Thanks to Three Warriors and their gorgeous range of Australian-made self-tanner products, we can stay gorgeously bronzed all year round.
In this blog, we’re going to run you through the basics of self-tanning and how to use Three Warriors’ mitts, scrubs, lotions and mousses!
Here’s Why We Love Three Warriors (And Why You Should Too!)
Three Warriors began in 2014 when Corbin Halliday was diagnosed with Chronic Inflammatory Response Syndrome (CIRS). To commence his recovery, Corbin had to rethink his lifestyle — and that included what he was putting on his body.
Among many other products, he was horrified to see the toxic list of ingredients in his fake tan. Our skin is the largest organ in the body, so Corbin knew that he had to find a natural, toxin-free alternative to his conventional fake tan.
So, he created his own — using the purest plant-derived ingredients sourced in Tasmania! We also love that Three Warriors donate 10% of all profits to Wello Water; a social enterprise facilitating life-changing water projects.

Three Warriors | Exfoliating Glove & Tasmanian Sand Scrub
The first (and most important) step in any flawless self-tanning routine is exfoliation! Scrubbing off dead skin before applying tan ensures a smooth, streak-free finish. Without exfoliating, your tan will cling to dry, dead skin and look patchy.
Using the Three Warriors Exfoliating Glove reveals soft, smooth skin and creates the perfect base for any self-tan product. To use this mitt, jump in the shower and lather up your favourite Body Wash or Scrub on the mitt. Pay special attention to dry areas — elbows, knees, wrists and ankles.
Another way to prep your skin is to use the Three Warriors Tasmanian Sand Scrub. This gentle scrub aims to buff away dead and dry skin; leaving you with soft, nourished skin that’s ready for self-tanner.

Three Warriors | Gradual Tan & Face Tan Mist
The second step, of course, is applying the self-tanning product that will give you the results you desire. Are you looking for a warm, natural glow on the face and body? We love Three Warriors’ Gradual Tan.
This gradual tanning lotion is easy-to-use, incredibly forgiving, and natural-looking — plus, it features a delicious vanilla and lime scent. We recommend applying before bed, and waking up to a gorgeous, natural tan.
Facial self-tanners are hard to come by, especially ones that don’t clog the pores! That’s why we love Three Warriors Face Tan Aqua Mist. Simply spritz onto the face and let it dry evenly for a natural, effortless glow. The best part about this natural face mist is that it evens out the skin tone, which minimises the need for tinted moisturiser and foundation.

Three Warriors | Self-Tan Mousse & Tanning Mitt
For a deep, dark, golden glow — you’ll need to try the Three Warriors Self-Tan Mousse. With an average rating of 5 stars, we think you’ll love this mousse self-tanner! It’s formulated with natural ingredients such as aloe vera, avocado oil and chamomile extract to hydrate and nourish the skin without irritation. No orange streaks, no synthetic fake tan smell, no greasy or sticky residue, and no pore-clogging toxins either.
With an easy-to-use foaming pump, you can control the output onto your Three Warriors Eco-Friendly Tanning Mitt. This velvety-smooth tanning mitt allows for an even, streak-free application of your tanning product of choice.
It’s double-sided and flexible, giving you complete control over the application of your tan. To keep the mitt in perfect condition, simply rinse with lukewarm water and air dry!
Get the tan of your dreams — without the sun, the toxins, or the animal products! These natural, organic self-tanning products don’t compromise on colour. Each product offers a golden, lit-from-within glow that’s buildable, streak-free, and believable (did you just get back from a holiday?).
