Original N°12 Dark
Price range: $48.50 through $175.00
Original N°12 Dark honors deeper skin tones with the hydration and sophistication they deserve—a 12% DHA formula designed specifically for skin types IV and V with cool or neutral undertones. Rich aloe vera base ensures even color settling, delivering that coveted golden-bronze glow that reads as inherently radiant and luxuriously dimensional.
Deep Golden Radiance, Naturally
Original N°12 is specially formulated for individuals with dark skin tones and cool undertones. At 12% DHA with olive undertones, this formula delivers a stunning deep golden tan that enhances your natural complexion rather than masking it.
The aloe vera base provides deep hydration while Walnut Extract and Vitamin E work together during the eight-hour development window. The olive undertone counterbalances cool skin tones, creating a radiant warmth that looks like you spent a week in the sun.
Clean Ingredients, Real Results
Aloe Vera
Deeply hydrates and soothes skin with anti-inflammatory antioxidants for even development and a soft, supple finish.
Vitamin E
Combats free radicals and preserves a youthful appearance, safeguarding skin against environmental damage during development.
Natural DHA
Derived from sugar beets and sugar cane for a clean, even color that develops naturally and fades gracefully over time.
Walnut Extract
Sourced from the husk — never the nut — for a signature golden undertone safe for those with nut allergies.
Three Steps to a Flawless Tan
Prepare the Skin
Exfoliate and moisturize dry areas 24 hours before. Skip deodorant, perfume, and tight clothing on the day of application. Use Sjolie pH Balancer Prep Spray and Barrier Cream for best results.
Apply Evenly
Pour 2 oz (50 ml) into the spray gun. Apply one light, even coat using the Sjolie Spray Tan Method. Dry the client between each pass. Do not shake the solution before use.
Develop & Rinse
Allow 8 hours for full development. DHA continues to develop for up to 24 hours after application to reach its maximum potential. Rinse with lukewarm water without soap, then pat dry.
Bold Color for Deeper Complexions
N°12 is designed for Fitzpatrick skin types IV and V with cool or neutral undertones — clients who want to enhance already-darker skin with a rich, golden intensity. At 12% DHA, it delivers the depth that lighter formulas simply cannot achieve on deeper skin tones.
Fragrance-free, PETA-approved, and free of erythrulose, mineral oil, parabens, and urea. Compatible with HVLP and airbrush machines. 16 applications per 32 oz bottle. Store at 65–75°F away from direct light. Up to ten days of longevity with proper maintenance.
