Answer 1

I have olive skin, but I was just born with it, I think that is the only way to get it, if you tan brown, then that's just what color you will be, sorry hun.

Answer 2

Er..usually olive skin is natural, unless you just keep tanning more and more and see what happens.  

Answer 3

Tan skin and olive skin is not the same.  Characteristics of olive skin are slightly beige with yellow undertones.  Olive skin is a great asset, because it tends to hide blemishes well.  Olive skin is found on people from lots of different ethnic backgrounds. People with olive skin may come from Mediterranean countries like Italy, the South of France, Turkey, or Spain; from Mid-European countries like Belgium, France, Latvia, Estonia or Germany; or Scandinavian countries like Norway, Finland, or Russia. People with olive skin can have blue, green or brown eyes, and will have anything from dark blond to black hair.  So tanning is completely different.
