Social pictures from Cocoa Brown’s Christmas launch event 

Founded by Marissa Carter back in 2012, Cocoa Brown Tan has established itself as one of the nation’s favourite brands. The world’s first one-hour tan, it has revolutionised the self-tanning process, meaning we can be glowing goddesses all year round. 

Now 12 years old, the brand was given a major glow-up in the last year with elegant packaging and a number of beautiful new products too – including a gorgeous Christmas gift set. Perfectly curated for the busy party season, it includes everything you need to achieve a radiant, bronzed glow… the perfect gift for beauty lovers and self-care enthusiasts alike!

Each set combines Cocoa Brown’s best-selling tanning and body care products along with a few festive extras so we can all feel our best as we catch up with friends and family this December. See below for a full rundown:
