The Blend It multipurpose tan blender can be used head to toe for the purposes of evening out the look of a tan, all the while [nourishing the skin with hydrating ingredients](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sunshine-oils) like coconut oil, chia seed and avocado. The lightweight, blendable and [buildable formula](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/huestick-complexion-stick) sets itself apart by being packaged in a stick format that can easily be rolled onto the skin and applied for mess-free touch-ups as an alternative to lotions and sprays. After swiping the product across the skin, it can be worked in with the fingers to achieve a soft, color-corrected and perfected look. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.6/10 - Popularity: 20% | Activity: 21% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Cosmetics](https://www.trendhunter.com/cosmetics) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Portable Self-tanning Products:** The trend of portable self-tanning products opens opportunities for innovative and convenient ways of achieving a tan. - **Multipurpose Tan Blenders:** The trend of multipurpose tan blenders presents opportunities for products that not only even out tans but also provide nourishment and hydration to the skin. - **Stick Format Packaging:** The trend of stick format packaging offers disruptive innovation opportunities for mess-free and easy-to-use self-tanning products. ### Who This Affects Most - **Beauty and Personal Care:** The beauty and personal care industry can explore the trends of portable self-tanning products, multipurpose tan blenders, and stick format packaging to develop convenient and innovative tanning solutions. - **Cosmetics:** The cosmetics industry can leverage the trends of portable self-tanning products, multipurpose tan blenders, and stick format packaging to create versatile and user-friendly self-tanning options. - **Skincare:** The skincare industry can tap into the trends of multipurpose tan blenders and stick format packaging to combine the benefits of tanning with nourishing and hydrating skincare ingredients. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Skincare-First Self-Tan Drops](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/self-tan-drops.md) - [DHA-Infused Contour Sticks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/contour-stick.md) - [Skin-Caring Bronzer Sticks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/beach-freak-bronzer-stick.md) - [Skin-Radiating Skincare Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/skinradiating-skincare-collection.md) - [Skincare-Infused Mousse](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/selftan-tinted-mousse.md) - [Customizable Self-Tanning Serums](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gradual-selftanning-face-serum.md) - [Hydrating Self Tanners](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bali-body-hydrating-tanner.md) - [Tinted Tanning Sprays](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/life-proof-self-tan.md) - [Moisturizing Tanning Products](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sunshine-oils.md)
