Self-Tanners
With summer just around the corner, it's time to work on our tans. I myself like to use the tanning beds cuz they're fast and I don't have time to lay out in the sun. But I do have a question regarding the self tanners? Have any of you found one that isn't that orangey colour? The only one that I"ve used is for my face only called Bronze Faces by Swedish Beauty. I love the colour it gives my face.
Now, I'm a redhead so it takes me a lot to get a dark tan. I do tan though but I tend to get more of a golden colour than the deep bronze. I was thinking of using a self tanner in conjunction with the tanning bed to get a darker colour. What do you think? Do they all stain your clothes too?

Bump.
I was told that tanning is a bad idea for me when I had a small basal cell carcinoma taken off my hand a few years ago. If there's any product that works for palefaces who like to wear white shirts in the summer, I'd like to know.

Fyre,
Check this thread and scroll down to my link to sun-laboratories. I was turned on to this stuff by a pro fitness person and this stuff is the bomb and it lasts a good 5 days and wears off without streaking.
I turned Stang onto it and he loves it!!

Still the best, i say get the lotion from the source Nicole likes and get your bootie in the high intensity bed twice a week.. youll look fab! Ohh and just be lucky you CAN tan! I have two redheaded friends that cant even do it at all!!

Try the one I posted; it blows any of the Dior, Clinique, Ban de Soleil products out of the water as it isn't fair to even compare my product to the other inferior ones...

You're very welcome, Fyre!!! Trust me on this product (as you did the eyedrops); you won't be sorry!!!
Check your local beauty supply stores; that's where I pick mine up all of the time. I just bought the #4 yesterday (the darkest). I had the #3 but it wasn't dark enough; that's the one I sent to Stang and he loves it!!

I like to stay tanned all year round, shows the definition more. I feel better when I have some colour to me.
I use the swedish beauty on my face and it's a beautiful colour, it blends in nice with the rest of my body. But I'd still like to be darker.

I've always been a beach girl and I don't like the way I look pale which would still be dark to most people...feel better when I'm tanned too...

Sun is good, but I dont see their foam product on that site. I have been using a product called fake bake lately. I like it better. It is a litte more intense and you have to do the nasty bed sheet thing, but it looks dark rich and natural days after. My fiance uses it in her body bronzing appts. at her spa. They also carry special facial whipes. Ill get you gus the info...I could probably get some samples out to you as well, if you are interested.

You leave a thicker coat over night so that it absorbs and can activate your melonin. It gets all over the sheets...I just use white ones and bleach em'.

Are you referring to my avatar, Frisco? Yeah, she's starting to come out of her shell. Slowly, but surely!!

Well, I put on a coat of the #4! I'll probably see a noticeable difference when I wake up in the morning...
