Re: Arms won't tan!!??!!

Use better lotion and a better bed. Do you shave or wax your arms? Does your daily moisturizer contain SPF?

Most people who moisturize their entire body do so after a shower. Throught the day, many will moisturize only exposed areas like their hands and arms. If you use a moisturizer with SPF, you're just layering it on...then you go tanning and the UV is blocked.

Re: Arms won't tan!!??!!

maybe wake em up and ask a real question instead of making everyone guess what the **** is going on here.

Fool might have a missing arm and we are over here trying to figure out proper browning for a phantom limb.

I use a HP bed. I shave my arms. I use Hempz moisturizer or Angel. I use California Tan X-power bronzer for the most part. I switch all the time though. I'm an assistant manager at a tanning salon.

Re: Arms won't tan!!??!!

You are exfoliating when shaving your arms. I can never understand why someone shaves and area like that.

Gain some weight, ever notice those wholesome areas tan well ;)
