Rep Power: 0 | At the tanning salon the other day a girl said she had used "Pam" for sunbathing outdoors. Do any of you have any odd or unusual potions that you have used before? Do they work? Personally, I have used hair spray outdoors before .. and I believe it does work. The girl who recommended this to me instructed me to go to the hair care aisle for black people and get the hair spray .. with mink oil .. (maybe that's the key ingredient, I don't know). I've actually seen several on the shelf with mink oil and I've talked with several girls who use the hair spray. Anybody else with odd or unusual potions to use outdoors? |

Rep Power: 24 | too funny Tamar........ But.........all joking aside... NEVER use anything on the skin and expose it to UV unless it is designed for the skin... Indoor lotions should NOT be used outdoor for more than 10 minutes...apply an SPF after 10 minutes when using an indoor lotion outside... I saw a young girl in Can Cun using pure Baby oil outside... (Remember her Mitzi)......... She said she "forgot" her SPF...... THis young girl was a LOTION SALES REP!!!!! (I will not say who she was or who she worked for.......) let me continue..... When I saw the baby oil sitting on her loungechair I was in shock...I asked her straight up... What's that for??? she said..Oh I know. (laughing) I forgot my lotion....and I'm too cheap to buy some in the gift store when I can get it at cost...... WHAT THE FOR CRYING OUT LOUD IS AN ANSWER LIKE THAT???? I had CT SPF 15 for the face and CT 15 for the body... I handed to her and said use this...... She showed me her face and there was tiny little blisters all over her chin and making their way up the jaw line.. She said..Chris what is this on my face.it hurts... I said YOU HAVE SUN POISIONING!!!! Let's get you out of the sun...... She felt staying in the sun was alright..she used the Spf on her face.... laid on her tummy and covered her head with a towel.....and went to sleep....( only applied a tiny bit to her pink shoulders!!!) I gave her the SPF I had.......Mitzi had some she would share with me for the rest of the trip.... We saw her that evening going to dinner and her face was a sight!!!!! she is a very very pretty girl...... but with the oozzzing blisters it looked awful and was painful........... Don't be stupid about UV....... You will get a beautiful tan if you do it the right way. Better safe than sorry when tanning.... Go slow..aquire your colour over a period of time..... This way you will look good and FEEL good...... Remember some of us will only get a nice gold colour others like Carol..( Marty and Carol) will be the BRONZE Babe'.............each one of us are like a snow flake....different.........you can't get to look like Carol if you are my skin colour...... Don't even try.............. and don't use crap to try to acheive it...you will do damage to yourself.... _________________ Christine' Cub Reporter Catch yourself a sweetie for Valentines Day!
