Summary

A skin cancer diagnosis changed everything for Luna Bronze co-founder Maddy Balderson, ultimately inspiring her and best friend Rhiannon Hall to create a self-tanning brand built around one simple idea: you shouldn't have to damage your skin to get a glow. The Australian founders join us to discuss how Luna Bronze went from a personal mission to a cult-favorite tanning brand (now at Ulta Beauty), why skincare-first self-tanning matters, and the ingredients and innovations helping modern self-tanners look (and smell) better than ever. Plus, we get their best application tips, the biggest tanning mistakes people make, and their personal skin cancer screening routines.  Shop everything mentioned in this episode here: https://shopmy.us/collections/6277100 Watch our episodes!
