Moisturizing Self-Tanning Silky Gel

Breakdown

7 ingredients to avoid

Avène Moisturizing Self-Tanning Silky Gel scores 15/100 on Tallow — our avoid band. That number comes from what is on the label: the ingredients, how processed it is, and what it is packaged in. It is not a verdict on your diet — Tallow does not weigh calories, portion size or how often you eat it, so a high score means the ingredients are clean, not that the food is unlimited.

Avène Moisturizing Self-Tanning Silky Gel lists 23 ingredients, starting with Avene Thermal Spring Water, Peg-4, Coco-caprylate, Dihydroxyacetone and Hydroxyethyl Acrylate/Sodium Acryloyldimethyl Taurate Copolymer. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 15/100 Avène Moisturizing Self-Tanning Silky Gel scores worse than most self-tanner we have scored. A higher-scoring option in self-tanner is Beauty by Earth Self Tanner Face Mist Medium to Dark at 86/100.
