I'm gonna have to sunbathe cuz my mom won't let me go to a tanning bed. My skin is pretty white (damn irish descent) so I can burn easily. I'd also like to buy some tanning lotion, what's an easy brand that I can find and buy? Without tanning lotion, how long should I lay out each day? and with tanning lotion, how long should I lay out each day?
[QUOTE="rawsavon"][QUOTE="Solid_Snake325"]lol thanks, but can someone please tell me how long to lay out?Solid_Snake325
Different for every person/skin type how about like, 30 mins? That doesn't give the data needed to narrow it down :P Some people would experience almost nothing from 30 minutes exposure, whereas I would be a lobster
um, yeah, don't go to a tanning bed. That's like asking for skin cancer. Don't buy tanning oil. for god's sake, don't. It's like spreading vegetable oil on your skin, it fries it when it's super hot out. Put on low spf sunscreen (the bottles are usually a darker color than the high spf ones to indicate that they're for tanning) and lay outside for about an hour a day, less if it's extremely hot because you'll just get heatstroke if you're out too long and don't drink any water. You can still get a tan if it isn't super hot outside, it's the UV rays, not the heat. and DON'T go out with NO sunscreen to "tan faster". I forgot sunscreen one day last summer and I couldn't lay flat that night, i was in so much pain.
