Rep Power: 0 | My first question is, my face hardly tans at all. I can tan on my arms where I can go to a light-moderate brown, and the same goes for my legs and the rest of me, but my face either goes Pink, or Red. The only other thing I can think of is putting sunless tanning lotions on my face. Which ones are the best, and which would you recommend.. Second, I have pretty much reached my darkest on my arms and legs, and I began using a tingle lotion to go darker, and I could feel the tingle, but I haven't gotten much darker. Do you think I need to get a stronger tingler? And will I be able to advance in colour with a hotter tingle lotion? Thanks! |

Rep Power: 143 | Are you using a bed with facials? Is it a base bed? Have you tried a bed with high pressure facials? I suggest getting a bottle of Amazing Face by Designer Skin, from your local salon, and using a higher level bed with high pressure facials. If you want to use the sunless product instead, I suggest The Big "O", also by Designer skin. If your salon doesn't have these items, they can order it for you and you should have it within a couple days. Good luck. |

Rep Power: 0 | As far as your face goes, you should use the advice Cayenne said. Try using a bronzer made for the face, darker skin takes in the rays more, (which is why bronzer is effective). I don't tan my face everytime I tan, mine turns pink/red too if I do. But it also depends on your skin type and how you take to the rays. If you think that you have reached your maximum, it may be due to your skin or to the bed you're using. Try moving to a more powerful bed, and try using a different lotion and see the results you get with that. Tingle does help, and you could always try to go to the maximum tingle, make sure you wait 10 minutes after applying it to tan to get the best results, but if it doesn't work, then your skin may just really be at it's maximum. Good luck! |

Rep Power: 23 | Thats true, I use prescripton cream and facial wash on my fash and they have bleach in them, so its hard for me to keep my face tan. I bought The Big "O" for myself and I think it works great. Doesnt smell that great though (surprise) |

Rep Power: 0 | Another thing to concider is using a melanin producing agent. You can find products that will add melanin to your skin to help you produce a darker tan. I also agree with everyone else on the facial tanners, they help alot. |

Rep Power: 68 | Question one: Stick your face in front of an active radar array. Question two: Encase evrything but your face in lead while your face is in front of the active radar array. Hope this helps. Good luck whitey. - The Belvedere |
