I have really enjoyed reading all your questions, answers and comments. For the most part the people on here really know their stuff and are quite passionate. THANKS!!!
Since the place I tan at said they don't know, I thought I'd throw out my question to you...
I used Hydrogen Peroxide for a week on my face to clear up acne. It will cause hyperpigmentation when tanning. How long do I have to wait before I can tan? I've looked online, and 'opinion' vary from a day to a year after last use. (Used topically, not ingested). I had trouble with sayalic acid (I spelled that wrong) and getting brown spots before, so I stopped using that cleanser/toner. Problem cleared up, but acne returned. Now, my acne is better, but I'm as white as snow.

Just don't use it when you tan. 24hrs is fine as these are just topical nonsense. Tanning is better for acne than that crap anyway.
