Rep Power: 0 | In this week I tanned for the first time in months for 2 days. I have a natural skin type 4 that is naturally yellow and sometimes brown when i wear yellow pink ot orange. How often should I tan? Should i go every other day? |

Rep Power: 0 | We recommend that tanners tan every other day at the most. The tanning process is just starting when you get out of the bed and continues for 24 - 48 hours after your session. Going closer together than that could result in a burn or excessive dryness of your skin. Take the day in between to moiturize and replenish your skin. |

Rep Power: 107 | You're skin type should give you great potential to tan, however, too much is not too good. Tan every other day until you reach your desired colour and then once or twice a week should maintain it. Unless you're really crazy about tanning and wanna be "black". But go easy on your skin by tanning moderately and keeping it moisturized and exfoliated. |

Rep Power: 21 | A child's skin has less natural protection than an adults. That is why it is easier to tan when you are younger. As you grow older, your skin begins to develop a tolerance to UV, and it makes it more difficult to tan. Also, a child's skin is usually less dry than adults. |
