Another month of 2023 has gone by and our mid-season product launches have concluded with Moonrise™ – the newest natural bronzer in our Color Rush Collection. It is, of course, great to use for UV and red-light sessions and is also spray-tan friendly … We like to call this a triple-hybrid formula. It also is pH-balancing and plateau-breaking!
For those who know their DC products, you know that the base of Color Rush lotions is a Cashmere Blend. What does this mean? Well, it essentially acts as a humectant which pulls moisture from the air and locks the hydration into the skin. It also sends extra hydration to the areas that need it. The X50 Photoglow ingredient is really what helps take the light and turn it into cellular energy, allowing this product to maintain and grasp optimal light enhancement. It is also, of course, loaded with the best skincare, ranging from Niacinamide to Vitamin C for the deepest source of hydration, anti-aging, wrinkle-reducers and anti-inflammatories. The best way we like to describe Moonrise goes a little like this: if Color Me Coco, Metaphoria and Prismatica had a baby, it would be Moonrise! This is because it is a Natural bronzer like Color Me Coco, red-light compatible like Prismatica and loaded with skincare like Metaphoria. It truly is the perfect recipe for the best color and skincare.
Now that we’ve introduced Moonrise, we can get into the other focus we chose for this month. Last month, we talked about indoor/outdoor lotions and their importance. That segues straight into natural bronzers as these products also happen to be indoor/outdoor. One main reason for this is that they are stain-free and streak-free, so you don’t have to worry about being outdoors sweating and getting patchy color. Another benefit of natural bronzers is the immediate satisfaction – their cosmetic color provides instant gratification and although it does wash off in the shower, the cosmetic bronzer has no effect on the actual tan you are building. Natural bronzers also have ingredients that are plant-derived, such as Carrot Oil and flower extracts. For example, Moonrise has Caffeine – a plant extract that firms, hydrates and tightens the skin for anti-aging and also contains wrinkle-smoothing properties.
Products with natural bronzers also do not leave an after-tan odor and are great for all skin types. These formulas are ideal for switching up your tanning lotion – which is highly recommended that you do from time to time, since constantly using an accelerator or DHA bronzer will lead you to a tanning plateau. Switching from an accelerator to a natural bronzer will benefit your skin and your tanning results.
It is hard to find a reason not to reach for a natural bronzer … especially Moonrise! We took to socials to ask our followers what their favorite natural bronzer is and why they love them. Check out what we found!
