To effectively use the Cocoa Brown Fresh Start Tan Eraser, begin by applying a generous amount of the product onto dry skin, focusing on areas with excess self-tan buildup or uneven patches. Allow the Tan Eraser to penetrate for 5-10 minutes, depending on the depth of tan you wish to remove. Using the Cocoa Brown by Marissa Carter exfoliating mitt, gently massage the skin in circular motions, paying extra attention to stubborn areas. Rinse thoroughly with warm water. Enjoy refreshed, smooth skin ready for a new tan application.
