    Newsflash: most fake tans don't offer sun protection. It might seem like common knowledge, but you'd be surprised how many people don't think they need to wear sun protection or sunscreen if they're wearing fake tan. Luckily, lots of brands now provide fake tan with SPF products so that you can keep safe and bronzed at the same time.

    Because let’s get one thing straight –regular fake tans on their own are in NO way sun safe. They don’t form a protective barrier on the skin – so they are not to be used in place of sunscreen! Check out some of beautyheaven's fake tan with SPF favourites for the beach, the bathroom and beyond…

    Bondi Sands Gradual Tanning Milk Everyday SPF 15  – build up your desired level of glow with this winner, which contains SPF15 as well as vitamin E, aloe vera and a blend of antioxidants for happy, protected skin.

    Ambre Solaire Perfect Bronzer SPF 8 – this product can used used all over the face and body for an instant sunkissed look with a touch of SPF.

    Le Tan SPF 15 Daily Glow – this vanilla scented gradual tan utilises aloe vera and vitamin E to provide soft, sweet-smelling skin. The buildable tan also features SPF15 protection to ensure an even safer glow. 

    Nutrimetics sun days Face Self-Tanner SPF 15 – reflecting the natural colour and depth of the skin tone is just one trick up this tan’s sleeves. Also providing SPF 15 protection and anti-ageing benefits, this one sure is a keeper.

    Oh I love this! I have been using Le Tan lately and loving it!

    Hayley644 15 Oct 2017 10:14 AM

    I have the Le Tan one I haven't used it yet though.

    The links for the SunSense & Nutrimetics products mentioned above no longer work. I think they must have been discontinued.

    What a great idea - making the skin look glowing while also protecting from those pesky UV rays.

    I don't do fake tans but I make sure to put SPF on all over my body before heading out the the beach! Sun protection is an important part of my skincare regimen.

    It's a great idea. I am always looking to tan in in summer but I hardly ever apply sunscreen to my body. This forces me to use an SPF.

    darasparkle 14 Oct 2017 8:48 PM

    This is a great idea!! Get the glow while still being protected!!

    cityglenda 14 Oct 2017 5:11 PM

    Thank you for this product info BH. I didn't know there were already Fake Tanning products with SPF. I'm going to keep my eye out for these now.

    Rpear 14 Oct 2017 5:03 PM

    Oh .. I like multi tasking products but this spf is too low for me now! I need 50+ or forget about it haha I like Le tan best but use it at night or Avon gradual tanning cream

    nicsta 14 Oct 2017 4:42 PM

    Miss19 14 Oct 2017 1:47 PM

    I had no idea that they even made fake tan with SPF. Smart idea!

    diabla 28 Jan 2012 10:46 AM

    wow great idea

    Princess Fiona1 25 Oct 2011 6:48 AM

    What a brilliant ideal, love multi tasking products

    Tiffanym 24 Oct 2011 12:22 PM

    I am not really an at home tanner I always end up looking like an oompa loompa so I just gave up.

    Jenniqua 23 Oct 2011 11:04 PM

    I am yet to find a fake suntan that does not streak, however if I could find one the benefit of the SPF would be that I could get some Vitamin D from the sun as well.

    Li 23 Oct 2011 4:07 AM

    Great idea, multi-tasking products are so handy!

    Princess Perfume 23 Oct 2011 3:44 AM

    Well the best thing is that it saves another step in the beauty routine. Lazy girl saviour.

    butterfly 23 Oct 2011 1:36 AM

    I'm pretty much a self-tan virgin, but if I was to give it a go, I'd definitely want to use one with sun protection. Better to be safe than sorry!

    renee.t 22 Oct 2011 9:14 PM

    This sounds like a great idea get brown & sun safe at the same time!

    Love bug 22 Oct 2011 11:30 AM

    I used to hate self tan so bad, because I thought I was fake and I always wanted to be 'natural looking'. So I always sunbaked. But these days, I avoide the sun so much and love fake tan now that I understand. this sounds good too....

    Phaine 22 Oct 2011 10:13 AM

    Ive used the sunsense one in a store and the colour was really deep. A little too deep for pasty white me but great if you love that deep tan look i suppose.

    dreamdream936 22 Oct 2011 7:47 AM

    sounds good..

    FiFi73 21 Oct 2011 9:16 PM

    The Le Tan daily glow sounds lovely, I love the smell of vanilla, mmmm..... ;)

    Stensen 21 Oct 2011 5:09 PM

    Multi-tasking products are great, aren't they? I don't really like Sunsense products. Unfortunately they seem to make my skin too oily.

    Ellelily 21 Oct 2011 1:27 PM

    I have never thought amout that self tanning products having spf in them. But its a great idea. And for those that use them its great spf + is so necessary.
