NUDA, Espresso 12% Solution
Nuda Canada’s Espresso is a 12% DHA standard development time solution.
(hot) take on the tan: I applied two layers of the solution on myself at night and let develop for around 12 hours before showering in the morning. The result? A gorgeous deep bronze tan that lasted around eight days. The blend of vitamins, soothing aloe, and nourishing coconut oil made for a smooth, skin-perfecting finish. The tan was about four shades darker than my natural skin color, and gave even, non-streaky coverage (especially considering I sprayed my self). I would recommend this solution to anyone looking for a deep, “just spent the week at the beach” level of tan.
