Tanning Issues? Please Read

I've been tanning for about 3 weeks and I was pretty fair skinned in the beginning and now I am up to 10 minutes a session...the only problem is my arms and legs arent as tan as the rest of me. I've been using a tanning lotion called Love Junkie and I know I'm going to run out soon so I was wondering is it okay if my arms and legs aren't as tan as the rest of me right now and that it will all even out and I wanted to know if there was another lotion I could use that will give me a darker tan pretty fast....thanks so much to those who reply :)

Your arms and legs are the hardest to tan cause they are the furthest from your heart. The less blood flow the less tan.

If you go to the gym, try tanning after the gym. You can also try a mild tingle on your arms and legs.

If you started from very pale then this is normal anyway. Takes about 30days to get a real tan that holds.

I go tanning in a 20 minute bed...but I want to start going into a 10 minute bed.

And what are some mild tingle lotions or bronzers i could use?

Well the people who work there always ask me how long do I want to go in for and the last 3 times I went in for 10 minutes. But last night I went in for 10 minutes in a 12 minute bed and tonight I'm going to go in for the whole 12 minutes

So you were doing 50% of the time and now within two tans you will be going 100% of the time. That is not something I recommend.

We ramp up tanners different here. Every other day when starting. Start at about 8 a couple times then ramp up to 10 and 12. They are at full time by the third week at the latest.
