Apply the facial tanner 1st and let it absorb and then you can apply other products on top.

I apply after moisturizing before bed and wake with a tan.

pre moisurizer- wait and then sunscreen or makeup or night cream

Dear babybird, you can use this pads even with pale skin tone, just the time which is on your skin is regulating the intesity of color, so start with 15 minutes and look how your skin/shade is acting and regulate yourselfes. I have a medium white skin color, and I let this for 2-4 hours on my skin in the evening. By the way, you do at the same time a peel as well, you will feel the tingeling sensation on your skin, so very nice complete product. The color you get is natural and nice, looks healthy as well, do this in winter once a month. Regards from Switzerland, Salvo
