It is so fun taking new self tanning brand photography. When I learned about the risks of sun tanning, I started looking for alternative ways to tan without drying out or compromising the health of my skin. I’ve tried dozens of different self tanners, spray tans, etc. This is the first time I’ve tried tanning towels and am very impressed.
These Helios towels have the tanning solution in them. It’s a 5.5” x 25” cotton washcloth infused with our specially sourced sunless tanning formula that contains only certified organic ingredients. No more messy, splotchy, or uneven tans. Your day-at-the-beach tan is right around the corner!
It’s a new and improved way to get that sunny summer glow without the risks from sun tanning. Here are some reasons why Helios towels are a great alternative to self tanner:
Each Helios towel is 5.5″ x 25″ so you can get to hard to reach places, like your back, all on your own!
The 100% cotton towel will tan your entire body without streaking or turning you orange.
They also use certified organic ingredients, like aloe and avocado oils, to enhance tanning performance!
The Helios Tan takes about 8 hours to develop and lasts up to 10 days after application. Despite how quick and easy it is, it lasts longer than many of the alternative brands I’ve tried.
The self tanning brand photography shoot was interesting and exciting. I used props the brand sent as well as pools, pool chairs, sunshine and sunglasses to help promote the brand with my photography. These subtle additions added color, personality and application to the photography.
These beautiful women were such a pleasure to work with, as well as the brand. I loved being creative and incorporating my own style and ideas into this commercial shoot.
