ARTI69 · 11-26-2004, 02:36 PM

hi people... cool site!!!

I was just wondering if anyone could give me some info on if its possible for me to tan!?!?! When i was alot younger... i had fairy good coloured skin. As i got older... working night shifts didnt enable me to see much sun, which caused my skin to go pale. i am scared to expose my pale skin to the sun because after doing so afew times... i seem to freckle alot easier!! What can i do about this???? Any suggestions at all would be appreciated

The only real way to found out, is tofind a reputable tanning salon that will give you a skin analysis to determine your skin type, and then take it from there. Use a good quality lotion to enhance your tanning results.

You will but you need to start SLOW. It may take 30 sessions over 90 days but after that you are clean sailing.

A SPF wil hinder your tanning process. Just use less exposure and a good moist Professional Tanning Salon Lotion. Engfant gave you correct information, if you cannot wait that long try Spray Tanning.

Don't worry about sunless, unless you absolutely cannot tan. No spf's for indoor tanning, indoor lotions only from your salon.
