At Tandae, beauty starts with self-love. That means caring for your skin, your health, and your happiness.
As May marks Skin Cancer Awareness Month, it feels not just appropriate (but essential) to speak up. Because despite everything we now know about self-care, one dangerous myth still lingers: “A tan makes you look healthier”.
We disagree.
A tan should never come at the cost of your health. Yes, bronzed skin is beautiful - but sun exposure and tanning beds are not worth the risk. That’s a truth we stand by. And it’s one of the core reasons Tandae exists.
Skin Cancer Reality We Can’t Ignore
Here’s what we know:
- 87% of melanoma cases, are caused by overexposure to UV radiation.
- Melanoma is one of the most preventable cancers - and yet, it’s on the rise.
- Just one blistering sunburn (every 2 years) can more than triple your risk.
- Tanning beds are classified as carcinogenic to humans (the same category as tobacco).
The facts are clear. And we won’t shy away from them. Skin cancer isn’t just a statistic - it’s a risk. One that far too many people take for the sake of a glow that can be achieved safely.
Our Stand: A Safer Way to Glow
Self-tanning isn’t just a beauty routine. It’s a decision. A way to protect your skin, your health, and your future.
At Tandae, this belief runs deep. From how we formulate our products to how we speak with our community.
We created Tandae to offer a luxurious, skin-loving alternative to sun exposure. Because we believe:
- Looking good should never put your health at risk.
- A tan should feel good, not come with long-term damage.
- Everyone deserves access to a safe, beautiful glow.
“Tandae was born from a love of how fake tan makes us feel: confident, glowing, powerful. But it’s also a brand rooted in responsibility. There’s no excuse for putting your skin in harm’s way when there’s a safer, smarter option.” - Georgia Davies, Tandae Founder
Empowerment Through Education
Raising awareness is part of our purpose - not just in May, but every single month.
We’re committed to:
- Educating on the risks of UV exposure and tanning beds.
- Promoting skin-safe, health-first beauty habits.
- Championing confidence that doesn’t compromise wellbeing.
Because this isn’t just about self-tan. It’s about empowerment. The power to choose health - without sacrificing beauty.
This Month… and Always
So as we honour Skin Cancer Awareness Month, we invite you to rethink what it means to glow.
Choose the glow that gives, not takes.
Choose the product that protects while it perfects.
Choose you - your health, your confidence, your skin.
We’ll be right here. Championing the safer, smarter glow - this month, and always. Because every day is a Tandae - and that should never come at the cost of your skin.
