Rep Power: 0 | One more ? ;) My face is lighter than my body, typical problem it seems like. Everytime I tan my face burns and dosen't brown. I use facial lotions and I dont go the full time in the bed. My body dosent burn, just my face. I have been tanning on and off for about 4 years now (maybe more) but recently I just started back up in Jan 09 from a 4 month break of no tannin what so ever. What can I do about this? It's making me kinda sad... I'll be going on vacation this summer, which means swimming, water and no makeup to fix my uneven tan... ;( |

Rep Power: 0 | Re: One more ? ;) That makes a lot of sense because I use proactiv. Now that you say that I remember one of the exfoliators i was using a while back actually had a warning on the bottle saying exposure to sun/ tanning beds will increse your chances of burning... Yeah, it's a paticular ingredient in the face wash. Would it be better if I only used the proactiv at night and used a regular face wash in the morning? but I do that a lot of the time anyway. Hmmm... Yeah, maybe I shouldn't go as long on my face. Thanks everyone. |
