Product Details
The No.1 Tan Drops acts as a simple supplement to your moisturizer, nurturing your skin with good ingredients and a gorgeous golden glow. Add a couple of drops to your moisturizer, mix it together in your palm and allocate it evenly on the designated area, where you want to tan.
The No.2 Tan Water gives you a gorgeous golden glow, in the easiest way. You simply pump a few sprays either directly to your skin or into your palm, and distribute the Tan Water evenly with your hands. Within a few hours, you’ll experience a natural looking healthy summer glow, giving you a velvety bare skin look.
With the After Sun No.4 you tan faster, gentler and keep your sun tan for longer. No.4 gives your skin a silky feeling and increased elasticity. It contains Tosolin which optimizes the production of melanin, reduces the penetration of harmful UVA and increases collagen renewal – meaning a reduction in sun wrinkles!
All are of natural processes and won’t clog your pores or cause breakouts. They’re suitable for sensitive skin, acne, rosacea. They’re allergen, fragrance, and paraben free, besides being free of endocrine disruptors and non-comedogenic and very gentle towards your skin.
Your benefits
The No.1 Tan Drops provides you with a naturally looking and made, golden glow. The golden drops can either be applied directly onto your skin or be mixed into your favorite moisturizer/lotion, to give you some extra hydration. The drops will reduce the visibility of redness in your skin, giving you a more even looking skin and glowy complexion.
The No.2 Tan Water aids you with a nutritious, healthy and natural looking glowy skin, giving you a velvety feeling and look. The tan is created due to DHA (read more in the Key Ingredients-section), naturally activating the melanin in the deeper layers of your skin, so the color isn’t a layer added on top of your skin, but built from within and naturally. This also makes your tan more long lasting.
Our No.4 is developed as a multitasking, quick-drying After-Sun Lotion with self tan, to bring you the best possible chance to enjoy summer, vacation, and sun, without stress or sunburns. It acts as a replenishing and hydrating body treatment, skin perfector and gradual self-tan lotion which develops into a perfect illuminating golden shade. The formula’s active ingredients help to reduce penetration of UVA, thus reducing the damage of your collagen, while also increasing the collagen production.

Key ingredients
Dihydroxyacetone, or DHA, a colorless sugar compound that’s used in most self-tanners. It can be derived synthetically, or from sugar beets and canes. When DHA interacts with the amino acids in the proteins of the skin cells, the production of melanoids – brown pigments – happens, which creates a tanned appearance.
This reaction only occurs in the top layer of the skin, which is why self tanners aren’t permanent. At Boë we use the smallest possible particles that go deeper in the skin, compared to other self tan products. This is why the tan from Boë’s products have a long lasting natural tan color.
DHA is generally well-tolerated by most people, though it can cause both contact dermatitis (rashes, irritation, redness) as well as an allergy. Though, we have never experienced any customers getting allergic reactions, alone from Boë’s products.
Erythrulose is a yellow to reddish sugar found in red berries, most commonly raspberries. Like DHA, it tans the skin due to a reaction with the amino acids (proteins) in the skin’s dead surface layer, producing a brownish tint. Like DHA, Erythrulose neither uses the skin’s normal pigmentation or UV-exposure to produce the tan coloration. But rather works as a chemical reaction on the skin’s dead surface cell layer and changes the skin cells to a brownish tone. At Boë we blend Erythrulose with DHA – to help the tan tone appear ‘richer’, deeper, and more even. The combination of Erythrulose and DHA gives you a more ‘natural’ look, as Erythrulose has a warmer/darker tone than the more orangey-colored DHA. Though this can vary depending on the individual, as each person’s unique skin may differ.
Hydrogenated Ethylhexyl Olivate is a unique sensorial agent that can be used as a vegetable-based alternative to silicone. The Hydrogenated Ethylhexyl Olivate is a highly stable transparent nourishing fluid oil, with low odor. It provides a long-lasting silky feel that creates a satin effect and smoothness on your skin, without oily residue or greasiness. As a cosmetic emollient of universal use, it restores suppleness and elasticity to the skin.
Glycerin is a natural component in healthy skin. When used in skincare, it’s typically derived from vegetable fats (like coconut oil, soy or palm) or produced synthetically. The glycerin used by Boë and in our products, is found and derived from non GMO Soy Oil – which makes it 100% natural and vegan. Glycerin is a hygroscopic ingredient, meaning it attracts the moisture from the air surrounding us, and helps us to contain it in our skin. Glycerin imitates the skin’s natural moisturizing factors in the skin’s fat layer, making it crucial for the skin’s ability to tie water in the superior skin layer. Besides being an eminent humectant, glycerin protects against environmental sources of skin irritation. It strengthens the precious skin barriers, besides helping other ingredients to penetrate the skin better. Glycerin helps to maintain a healthy and good moisture balance in your skin, and when the moisture balance is ‘normal’ your skin will feel soft, smooth and elastic, making it receptive to skincare and other products. Lastly, it aids in improving the skin’s youthful look.
Tosolin itself is synthesized and extracted from yeast and microscopic mushrooms in controlled conditions. It has, in In-Vitro tests, demonstrated that it creates 90% faster tanning, 77% deeper natural tan for 10 days or longer (average), and 73% improved reduction of sun wrinkles. It reduces the penetration of UVA, which results in a reduced damage of collagen, while also increasing the renewal of collagen, which UVA otherwise damages. Non flexible collagen is renewed even faster, which leads to prevention and reduction of sun wrinkles. Tosolin does also increase the natural resistance to both immediate and prolonged sun damage.
Butyrospermum Parkii Butter, better known as Shea Butter. Rich in antioxidants, including quercetin, epicatechin gallate, gallocatechin, epigallocatechin, as well as skin-replenishing fatty acids (stearic and linoleic), Shea Butter has emollient properties for dry skin. The butter is protective and inhibits the formation of free radicals. It’s well adapted for the anti-ageing processes, as it helps to retain the elasticity due to its combination of triglycerides and unsaponifiable fraction.
The refined Shea Butter we use comes from Burkina Faso, in West Africa, and our partners are directly socially responsible for the support of the local community in the trade of Shea.

Why it's special
The No.1 Tan Drops are easy to use drops that you can apply directly onto your skin, or mix them with your moisturizer. They give your skin a natural golden glow and dewy touch. Best of all, you won’t experience any clogged pores or greasy feeling, and since. No.1 is also formulated with Glycoin that is a 100% natural, multifunctional, anti-aging, and cell-boosting active ingredient, that reactivates the power of youth in tired, stressed, and mature skin. The elasticity of your skin will increase, and the formula will also decrease the skin’s stress caused by blue light and pollution. It’ll lead to stimulation of cell vitality, tissue repairing and cell renewal, resulting in a younger looking skin.
The No.2 Tan Water has from the beginning been one of our bestsellers. It gives you a glowy and dewy touch, in just two hours and you feel like you got your real summer tan. It doesn’t clog your pores or cause breakouts, or the greasy feeling known from other self tanners – and no oily residue. Since it’s free from any oils, you can use it all year and by all skin types, without worrying about bad side effects.
The combination of Glycerin, DHA and Propanediol gives you a natural tan, homogenic, smooth, silky and youthful looking skin, serving off a natural no makeup make-up look – without make-up. The elasticity of your skin is also increased and so is its ability to receive and ‘digest’ other ingredients in your skin.
In No.4 there’s a unique combination of ingredients that, first and foremost, will give you a natural tan, a smooth, silky skin and instant hydration. No.4 will also make your natural tan last longer, give you an illuminating, deep, golden, glowy skin, reduce redness from too much sun exposure and protect and renew collagen. It’ll lead to stimulation of cell vitality, tissue repairing and cell renewal.
The nourishing ingredients and formula is quickly absorbed by your skin and you’ll instantly feel like your skin’s been hugged in cooling and hydrating ingredients – like your skin’s being renewed and protected overnight.
It’s made with a sensitive skin in mind as default; why it’s gentle for you and your skin!
