Frequently Asked Questions
What base colour is the Violet Express?
Violet Express features a violet-based self tan. Violet undertones are ideal for anyone seeking a deep, olive finish, as they help neutralise yellow and orange hues to deliver a rich, chocolate-toned result.
What is the difference between the Ultra Dark Express and the Violet Express?
Ultra Dark Express is formulated with a green-based colour guide, which appears on application but does not reflect the final tan. This green tone may be more noticeable on lighter skin tones, but it develops into a natural-looking glow and works to balance red undertones for a bronzed finish. Violet Express, on the other hand, uses a violet base to achieve similarly deep results with a more olive-toned payoff.
How long should I leave the Violet Express on for?
Violet Express can be worn for between 1 and 3 hours, depending on the depth of colour you’re after. Leaving the tan on for longer will allow it to develop darker.
Does the Violet Express dry quickly?
Violet Express is an aerated foam that absorbs faster than traditional tanning mousses. This results in a quick-drying application and a lightweight, touch-dry finish.
Is this self tanner made with natural DHA?
Yes. Like all of our self tanners, Violet Express is formulated using 100% natural DHA.
What natural ingredients are in the Violet Express?
The Violet Mousse is enriched with skin-loving ingredients including niacinamide, glycerin and vitamin E.
Can I apply multiple layers of the Violet Express?
Yes, Violet Express can be layered to build your desired level of colour. Typically, 1–3 layers per application are recommended for optimal results.
Can you use the Violet Express self tanner on your face?
For the face, we recommend using our Face Tan Mist. The Bali Body Face Tan Mist is a skincare-infused self tanning formula specifically designed to gently and evenly tan the face and neck.

I’ve tried a couple of more tan products from other brands but this one is the BEST in terms of color and longevity. Just remember to scrub before and apply moisturizer on a daily basis after !
