Tanning brand Amanda Harrington London, launched in 2019, has announced closure. The brand will cease trading with immediate effect. Forced retail closures during the pandemic period combined with the sharp increase in the cost of supplies post-Brexit have led to untenable pressure on the young company.

Founder Amanda Harrington said: "My team and I have loved every minute of creating the brand, building relationships with our amazing community, retail and e-tail partners, and working with our external suppliers with whom we have had such strong and enduring partnerships. Thank you for all your hard work. I value each and every one of you. I will take away the biggest gift, which is that you all loved the product enough to wear it, write about it and generally back it. For now, onwards we go. Huge love Amanda x"

Amanda will continue to spread her wealth of knowledge in the beauty industry, providing expert advice to brands, bespoke services to her VIP network, and insight and commentary to the media. She will remain CEO and founder of In Parlour, her at-home beauty on-demand business, which will continue to offer the Contouring Tan service she's renowned for.
