I am sorta a new tanner, I have been going for about 2 and half weeks and I am up to 20 minutes, and I look WAY darker inside my house, but outside I look unoticeably darker. I have filled out a skin typing chart on another website, and it classified me as a type 3. The bed am using is only a 3000 watt bed, but I tried the Matrix L33 on friday, and will continue to use both of the beds. But it just frustrates me that I dont look any darker in the sun! Anything advice will help!!!! Thanks PS. I LOVE THAT MATRIX L33!!!!!!

There's not much you can do about it - lighting is just like that. Florescent light will also make you look lighter. Just remember, when you look pale outdoors, so does everyone else. So by comparison you'll still show a nice tan.

Did you exfoliate before you started tanning? They recommend at the tanning salons usually that you make sure to exfoliate before-hand to get rid of any surface dead skin. It is the lighting as well. I never look as tan outside, but then I see pictures later and realize that I was, but couldn't really see it. Maybe if you take pictures as you go through the tanning process and check then every so often to see your progress you'll see a difference.
