FAQs

How often should I apply the First Light Tinted Tan Serum?

You can apply it daily as needed to maintain and build your desired glow. For a subtle tint, one application may suffice. To build a deeper colour, apply daily for up to three days.

Can I wear makeup over the serum?

Yes, you can apply makeup over the serum once it has completely dried. It creates a smooth base for makeup application.

How long does the tan last?

The tinted glow is instant and provides a wash of colour. As it's a tint, it will gradually fade with cleansing. For a longer-lasting effect, reapply as needed.

What are the main active ingredients?

Key ingredients include Phytocollagen, Evodia Extract, Fermented Oat, and Sharohyal Matrix® for hydration and skin enhancement.

Is this product suitable for sensitive skin?

The serum is formulated to be lightweight and hydrating. However, always perform a patch test before full application if you have very sensitive skin.

How do I remove the tint?

The tint can be removed with your regular facial cleanser. For stubborn areas, a gentle exfoliant can be used.

What is the scent profile?

It has a signature unisex scent with notes of uplifting bergamot and sunlit florals, softened by creamy sandalwood and smooth vanilla.

Troubleshooting

Uneven application or streaks

Ensure skin is clean, dry, and free of heavy oils or lotions. Apply using clean hands or a dedicated brush, blending thoroughly from the hairline downwards. Allow sufficient drying time between layers if building colour.

Product feels sticky

This may indicate too much product was applied or it has not fully dried. Apply a thinner layer and allow more time to air dry. Avoid applying heavy creams immediately after application.

Desired glow is too light

Apply a second thin layer of the serum after the first layer has completely dried. Allow for customisation over 1-3 days to build to your preferred shade.

Scent is too strong

The scent is designed to be subtle. If you are particularly sensitive, try applying in a well-ventilated area and allow it to dry completely before moving to other activities.
