How long should Light-Olive skin develop Australian Glow Light?

For Light-Olive skin, we recommend developing Light for 3 hours — anywhere in the 2–4 hour window is safe. Shorter develop reads as a subtle finish, longer develop deepens the colour.

What is the best way to apply Light on Light-Olive skin?

Apply with a tight-seam tanning mitt in long upward strokes, starting at the ankles. Pre-moisturise dry zones — knees, elbows, ankles, wrists — and finish hands and feet with the leftover product on the mitt.

How long does Light last on Light-Olive skin?

Four to seven days for most tanners, extendable to ten with a gradual moisturiser applied on day three and day five. Avoid chlorine, hot showers and body retinol while wearing the tan.

Can Light-Olive skin really pull off Light?

Yes, with intention. Push develop time toward the lower end of the window for a more conservative result, or apply with a slightly diluted layer to soften the depth.
