Rep Power: 0 | Its weird that I still got dark arms and legs from the summer but my face went back to its natural olive skin tone( I'm half hispanic half italian) why is that when its common for people to have pale legs and tan faces? |

Rep Power: 21 | This is a very common complaint with olive skinned tanners. It may be because your skin is genetically engineered to be more resistant to sunlight and since your face receives more exposure throughout the year than the rest of your body, it has developed an even stronger tolerance to UV. We have seen good results when your skin type uses JA facial oil and beds with low pressure bulbs...you need the UVB. When all else fails, use a sunless tanner on your face. |
