What's wrong with me tanning?
Any tanning, from a tanning booth or outside is not good for your skin. It will dry out your skin and can make you get skin cancer. Also, tanning booths age your skin. So in 5-10 years, you can look 5-20 years older than your actual age.
Reply:As a long time former tanner, I can tell you my body is covered with dark moles (and I have olive skin to begin with which is "supposed to be safest) and I have skin cancer. There is no "safe" tanning. Please learn from my mistakes.
Reply:nothing is normal. but you should probably use protection for your skin, when i was little the same thing used to happen to me.
Reply:Your not getting a tan your getting sun burnt!!!
Reply:You're burning. If you're tanning outside, you need to really watch and make sure you don't burn. Get some of that hawaiin tropic stuff, it has like SPF 4 so you'll still tan and keep applying it about every 15 minutes that you lay out. You'll get brown without burning. When you start to feel hot, you're burning, so go inside then. Also, you need at least a day inbetween tanning to build back up the vitamins in your skin that make you turn brown. In between, use lots of moisturizer b/c hydrated skin tans better.


If you go in the tanning bed, you just have to not go in as long and take a day break in between sessions.


Just be aware that it takes a couple months of tanning to get golden, so you might just be rushing it a little too much and that's why you burn and peel. :-)
Reply:your not doing a gradual time in and your not using before and after moisturizers.
Reply:SKIN CANCER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
