Mousse is spread with an application mitt, face mist is sprayed directly from the bottle, and spray tan solution requires a suitable device. Choose a format for your routine and follow its own instructions.
Apply step by step
- 1
Prepare the skin gently
Follow the product or salon preparation instructions. Exfoliate only gently if your skin tolerates it, and plan shaving or waxing in advance. Do not scrub irritated or damaged skin. Start with clean, dry skin.
- 2
Prepare and apply mousse
Prepare and moisturise the skin the day before. Apply a little moisturiser to dry areas, then spread the mousse with a mitt in gentle circular movements. Use less on hands, elbows, knees and feet. Let the skin dry before dressing; bronzer may transfer to light fabrics.

Development and first shower
Before the first shower, allow 1–3 hours for light colour, 4–5 for medium or 6–8 for deeper colour. Keep the skin dry, then rinse with water without soap. Colour continues developing for up to 24 hours. Moisturise daily.

Clear mousse without bronzer
Allow 1–4 hours for a light glow, 5–8 for medium or 8 hours or overnight for deeper colour. At the first shower, rinse with water without soap. Colour develops for up to 24 hours. Moisturise daily.

Face mist has its own instructions
Spray evenly over clean, dry skin on the face, neck and décolletage from about an arm’s length away. Let it dry completely. Colour develops gradually over 24 hours; wait 24 hours before reapplying for more intensity.

Aftercare and first use
Patch test before first use. Contains no sunscreen. Avoid eye contact and rinse thoroughly if contact occurs. Stop use if irritation develops. Store cool and dark below 20°C and use within six months of opening.
Pro tips
Use good lighting
Work with a mirror in good light so you can check your coverage.
Wait for the colour to develop
The first shower and the final colour are different stages. Temporary bronzer can rinse off while the colour continues developing. Scandibrown mousse can develop for up to 24 hours; that is development time, not total wear time.
