White spots.... - Page 4 - tanTALK

I worked as Life Gaurd in high school and many of us got the "Sun Spots". The heat, sun and water seemed to help it grow. But little sun spot cream always cleared it up fast.

Ive heard alot of people (not on here) suggest people get Head and Shoulders to get rid of it, thinking that HnS has Salicylic Acid in it, which it does not. You can use Selsun Blue, or even buy Salicylic Acid soap which is even better (great for acne as well). Head and Shoulders uses Selenium Sulfide or Pyrithium Zinc, depending on the type you get, and neither will do the job that Salicylic Acid does.

btw, this is very common, and isnt from tanning beds.
