Cocoanilla Advanced Mocha Professional Spray Tan Solution 32 oz

• Clients wanting a rich, medium-to-deep developed tan

• Bridal parties, vacations, photography, special events, and performance tanning
• Clients who enjoy a deeper cosmetic bronzer during application
• Artists looking for a versatile 12% DHA professional solution
• Clients whose skin condition and tanning goal can comfortably support a richer developed result

Healthy, well-prepared skin delivers the most predictable result.

• 12% DHA for rich, noticeable depth

• Camera-ready Cocoanilla finish without moving to maximum depth
• Medium viscosity for smooth, controlled spraying
• Skin care support throughout development
• Dependable 8-hour development for professional services

The bronzer gives the artist clear visual guidance during application. It helps track coverage, identify missed areas, and confirm that the solution has been applied evenly. It also gives the client instant gratification with an immediate, fresh-from-the-beach bronzed appearance while the DHA-developed tan begins to form.

Bronzer Family: Cocoa Brown
Tone Direction: Warm-neutral deep brown

The Cocoanilla bronzer creates a rich, true-brown visual during application.

How the Bronzer May Appear on Different Skin Tones

• Rosy / Pink: May visually soften the appearance of surface redness
• Light Neutral: Appears as a soft, natural light brown
• Medium Neutral / Olive: Appears as a richer neutral brown
• Medium-Deep: Appears as a deeper neutral brown overlay
• Deep / Dark: Adds subtle visible definition and glow

The bronzer is a temporary cosmetic application guide and rinses away. Final tan depth develops from the DHA reaction with the skin.

Cocoanilla® Advanced Mocha is designed as a traditional wear solution with predictable development.

• Wear Time: 8 hours for full development
• Expected Result: Rich, cocoa-brown tan with smooth, even fade

Final results vary based on skin condition, preparation, and aftercare. Artists should assess hydration level, age, and overall skin condition in addition to Fitzpatrick type when selecting this formula.

Cocoanilla® Advanced Mocha is formulated to support the skin environment in which DHA develops. Hydration, surface condition, and barrier balance can influence how evenly a sunless tan develops and fades.

The formula combines 12% DHA with erythrulose and AYU’s Micro-Emulsion Delivery System for even surface distribution, along with skin care ingredients selected for hydration, comfort, and conditioning during development.

• Hydration support: Aloe, glycerin, and hyaluronic acid
• Emollient support: Jojoba oil, meadowfoam oil, olive-derived squalane, and cocoa butter
• Antioxidant botanicals: Cocoa, green tea, turmeric, rosehip, and black currant extracts
• Peptide support: Palmitoyl Tripeptide-5 and Acetyl Hexapeptide-8
• Medium viscosity for smooth, controlled HVLP or airbrush application
• Fragrance-free and manufactured fresh in small batches

Healthy, well-prepared skin provides the most predictable environment for even DHA development.

Is Cocoanilla® Advanced Mocha a rapid solution?
No. Mocha is a classic 8-hour development formula. Within the Cocoanilla Collection, Espresso offers dual-function 8-hour or rapid flexibility, while Double Shot Rapid is designed specifically as a rapid system.

How is Mocha different from Latte and Espresso?
Mocha contains 12% DHA and provides the rich middle depth of the Cocoanilla Collection. Latte offers the most natural developed depth at 9.5% DHA, while Espresso provides the deepest 14% DHA result with dual-function 8-hour or rapid flexibility.

Is Cocoanilla Mocha only for medium or deeper skin tones?
No. Mocha describes the formula’s DHA level and expected developed depth, not who can use it. Artists should consider the client’s skin condition, tanning history, and desired result when choosing a formula.

Does the Cocoanilla bronzer determine the final tan color?
No. The cocoa-brown bronzer provides visual guidance during application and gives the client immediate bronzed color while the tan begins developing. The bronzer rinses away. Final tan depth develops from the DHA reaction within the outermost layer of the skin.

Can I lighten the Cocoanilla bronzer or customize the DHA level?
Yes. Cocoanilla Mocha can be blended with AYU Plus Clear to reduce the cosmetic bronzer concentration while allowing the artist to customize the final DHA percentage.

For a 50/50 blend, average the DHA percentages of the two solutions:

• Mocha 12% + AYU Plus Clear 6% = 9% DHA
• Mocha 12% + AYU Plus Clear 8% = 10% DHA
• Mocha 12% + AYU Plus Clear 10% = 11% DHA
• Mocha 12% + AYU Plus Clear 12% = 12% DHA
• Mocha 12% + AYU Plus Clear 14% = 13% DHA

This gives the artist control over both the visible bronzer depth during application and the DHA percentage of the finished blend.

Mix AYU solutions with AYU solutions only. Store custom blends separately in a clearly labeled container and do not return mixed solution to the original bottle.
