How long should Medium skin develop Australian Glow Clear?

For Medium skin, we recommend developing Clear for 7 hours — anywhere in the 6–8 hour window is safe. Shorter develop reads as a subtle finish, longer develop deepens the colour.

What is the best way to apply Clear on Medium 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 Clear last on Medium 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.
