Can You Fake Tan When Pregnant? Meet Our Mama To Be Tanning Balm

Aug 31, 2026

Pregnancy comes with plenty of changes - including changes to your skin and sometimes even the way your usual fake tan develops. But if you still love having that golden glow, you don't have to give up your tanning routine.

Our Blooming Mama To Be Tanning Balm has been specially formulated for pregnancy and postpartum, combining a natural-looking tan with nourishing skincare ingredients to keep skin feeling soft, hydrated and glowing.

Why Is Mama To Be Different?

Pregnancy hormones can sometimes affect how sunless tan develops, which can lead to a more uneven or patchy result.

Mama To Be has a no guide-colour formula, designed to make tanning during pregnancy simple. It develops gradually into a natural-looking golden glow and is suitable for all skin tones.

It's also fragrance free, making it a great option if you've found yourself more sensitive to scents during pregnancy.

Tan Meets Skincare

Your skin deserves a little extra TLC during pregnancy, which is why Mama To Be is packed with nourishing ingredients including:

  • Organic Shea Butter & Cocoa Butter to nourish and moisturise
  • Aloe Vera to help keep skin feeling soft and comfortable
  • Hyaluronic Acid to support hydration
  • CoQ10 & Vitamin E for added skin-loving care

The rich balm texture glides smoothly across the skin, helping to hydrate while your tan develops.

No Mitt Needed

One of the best things about Mama To Be? You don't even need a tanning mitt.

Simply apply the balm using your hands and blend it across the skin like a moisturiser - making it especially easy to apply around your growing bump.

Just remember to wash your hands thoroughly with warm, soapy water afterwards!

Your Glow, Your Way

Mama To Be develops over 6-8 hours, leaving behind a natural-looking golden tan rather than an overly dark or orange finish.

With the right preparation and aftercare, your glow can typically last around 5–7 days, making it perfect for everything from everyday confidence to baby showers and maternity photoshoots.

Made for Mamas, Not Just Pregnancy

Mama To Be isn't only for pregnancy. It was created for pregnancy and postpartum, so you can continue using it after your little one arrives.

Whether you're expecting, postpartum or simply looking for a nourishing, fragrance-free tanning balm, it's an easy way to bring a little glow back into your routine.

Because becoming a mama doesn't mean giving up your glow.
