Apparently the u/v effects are stronger in a tanning salon. So both are bad. You can safely tan by applying sunscreen with 20spf tanning lotion and bake for only 15 minutes on each side each day, In natural sun. But a lot of people would recommend not to do any. Fake tanning supposed to be the safest.
Is it worse to tan in the sun or tanning bed?
apparently you have not watched Final Destination III.
Reply:tanning bed
Reply:tanning bed is worse as the sun does give you vitamins,although only one type.
Reply:i think theyre as bad as each other,if you're in the sun use suncream
Reply:yuk. stay out of the sun if possible. you'll regret it when you get to 35 + and your skin is 20 years older than it should be.
You want to look 20 at 30, not look 40.
Reply:do what suit you better
Reply:I seem to remember something I read once, it said sunbeds were safer because they filtered certain harmfull rays.
Reply:both are bad!
Reply:I live in australia so for me the sun is far worse (hole in the ozone layer :( )
Reply:I'm aware that tanning is bad. OK! From personal experience, I have found that it caused much less skin damage when I used a tanning bed than the real sun. But, when you are in a tanning booth or bed those rays don't just stop at your skin, They go on through to your organs and i'm pretty sure those little glasses will not stop you from getting cataracts. I'm pretty sure the fake and bake is worse for your health. Keeping that in mind from a vanity point of view fake and bake is quick and easy.
Reply:oh tanning bed is the last option for you to consider..since it has 2 major con's - it gives your unnatural tan, orange and it gives more damage to your skin. Just run to the beach and get a healthy looking tan..since summer is near and the temperature is rising up. don't forget to put on sunscreen :D

Tanning Lotion...Australian Gold Beach in a Bottle.. anyone tried it?
Anyone tried Australian Gold Beach in a Bottle? Is it any good, does it work? Can you use it for an all over body application? Just scared of what to use b/c everything makes me look horrible. Thanks for the answers. :-)
Tanning Lotion...Australian Gold Beach in a Bottle.. anyone tried it?
Don't know about that one, but "Believe" is really good. I'm fair skinned so I have to be careful with what I use. It works well and smells pretty good too. Good luck!

What is some great tanning lotion to use outside to help with tanning darker quicker?
Use a bronzer lotion that you put on and then an hour or two later its a litter darker tint, you can get it at your local tanning booth.
How do these sunless tanning lotions compare in creating dark deep tans: Fake Bake, St. Tropez, Neutrogena?
Fake Bake and St. Tropez don't have different levels like Neutrogena (light, medium, deep). I've used Neutrogena deep and it gets pretty dark. Do Fake Bake and St. Tropez get as dark or darker? The light and medium sunless tanners really don't make a difference on my skin.
Secondly, how do the scents compare? Neutrogena doesn't smell great. I can't wait to shower the scent off. I'd like to try St. Tropez or Fake Bake if they get at least as dark.
Please only answer if you've tried one of the above mentioned.
How do these sunless tanning lotions compare in creating dark deep tans: Fake Bake, St. Tropez, Neutrogena?
I use a L'oreal one, in a spray and it is excellent, there is another one that is a bronzer, and that is excellent. Try those if you get them where you are.

How do I get rid of self tanning streaks and patches?
I used self tanner, and i have streaks and patches an dthey look gross =/ ... also, how do i spread it more evenly?
How do I get rid of self tanning streaks and patches?
Stop using self tanners. They are prone to looking streaky. If you are not going to do that then exfoliate your skin prior to using self tanner and use a self tanner that you can see where you are adding it. Some products look a certain color, so you can tell what you are doing.
Reply:I heard lemon juice helps, but it might remove a majority of the color.

What is the best way to get tan without using a tanning bed or spray on tan?
Is there a good brand of lotion or another product that is affordable and doesn't turn you orange? Please have it be available at drugstores.
What is the best way to get tan without using a tanning bed or spray on tan?
Dove® Energy Glow™ Daily Moisturizer with Subtle Self-Tanners
works for me.
the soaps worked even better for tanning
the moisturizer is about $7-$9 at drugstores(less at walmart)
the soap for 3 bars is about .....$4 or so
bring enough for both
but if you can only get one, get the soap (you'd use it more and it works better)

Tanning salons...?
if you have ever been there can you tell me what you have to do and what happens and what do you need to wear...and what were your results??
Tanning salons...?
yes let me tell you. i use to go to tanning beds.i looked great. had a beauitful tan year round.and as we all know every one looks better with a tan right? theres one thing that will ruin a good tan.its called CANCER. now i have a huge hole and a huger scare where they had to remove half of my back. skin cancer is one of the fast growing and most deadly cancer you can have. my cancer can come back at any time. i worry every day about that. if you thing im trying to scare the hell out of you then you would be right. take it from me its not worth the risk. spend 20 minutes a day no more then 3 times a week in the sun. what ever color you can get from that is safe. STAY OUT OF THE TANNING BEDS. oh by the way i was not one to over use the beds. i only went 2 some times 3 times a week.
Reply:DONTTTTTT DO IT!!!
Reply:You don't wear anything in the tanning bed. BUT YOU MUST invest in the tanning bed sun screen or else you'll fry your little **** off.
The results are being tan, obviously. It take a few trips for you to actually get a decent tan.
Reply:Hi :), well usually you wear lingerie or just go nude, and wear eye protectors, they do work well, but they are best for a one off or two off basis, because they are very dangerous and have been known for causing some forms of skin cancer because of the uv radiation.
Reply:DO NOT tan. I tanned as a teenager and I'm now 29 I can already see wrinkles appearing around my eyes and it sucks. As far as I can tell they are from the tanning because I exercise, eat right and don't smoke. Having darker skin is so not worth wrinkles (or skin cancer for that matter).
Reply:I know that tanning your skin in those things can give u skin cancer so I would not even try especially if your skin is very white %26amp; sensitive
Reply:Tanning salons are bad. Sunbeds are very bad. The results are after only five minutes, you go red and blothcy. Plus, it damages your skin. spray on tans are not any better. They damge your skin also. If you get a tan now, everyone will know its fake. Wait until summer, and get a tan the good old fashioned way! Don't forget sun tan lotion! 30 SPF min!
Reply:YOU GO IN PAY GET ASSIGNED TO A BED, YOU GO TO THE ROOM I GET NAKED BUT YOU CAN WEAR WHAT EVER YOU WANT AND THEN TAN

i wear nothing when i go, and after about 3 times in a row i see good results a nice even tan thats not too dark
Reply:well it is a bed like contrapsion that you lay in that has lights. Or some you stand in depending on the model of bed. You can either wear underwear , swim suit or go naked.( i go naked) You go in the room strip down put on lotion( it makes you tan faster) lay there for up to 20mins(in the old school beds) 8 for the newer ones. Then you get dressed and leave. and you have to do this for about a week and then once you get a base tan you can go just a couple of times a week.

Do you get any color when you tan in tanning booth withOUT any tanning booth lotion???
Yes, of course. Just being in the tanning booth will give you a tan. The tanning lotion helps condition your skin, make it softer and sometimes speeds it up. The lotion is really just something they try to sell you. You don't need it to get a tan at the tanning booth, believe me.
For the money, the best thing you can do, however, is go to a good day spa and have them put on self-tanner. It's much healthier for your skin. Just think how much nicer you'll look when you're 60 and your skin looks like you're 45!
Do you get any color when you tan in tanning booth withOUT any tanning booth lotion???
Yes, lotion should only be to protect you though... as far as I know.
Reply:Yes, but the lotion helps to keep you from burning as much and works as a moisturizer. Plus usually it smells good.
Reply:Yes, But i do use it now because they help you stay moisturized. Also, the lotions with bronzers in them will help you retrieve your color faster!
Reply:Yes. You can get a tan without the lotion, but it helps. The lotion is there to boost the tan. It does not protect you in anyway from the rays. Its only purpose is to help the tan develop. You have to be careful if you do use a lotion though because if it has SPF in it, it could harm the tanning bed.
Basically, if you don't want to use the lotion. Don't use it. Your tan will just take longer to develop than if you did use it.

Good luck!
Reply:Yes, personally I LOVE being tan, you just have to know how to keep it under control. Ask a tanning consultant how long you should go for, at almost every tanning salon you are required to fill out an evaluation to see how easily you burn. Next, make sure you keep your skin healthy by exfoliating daily, and keeping it highly hydrated. Never burn, burning is what causes skin cancer. Last make sure you purchuse some kind of lotion, not only will they help you darken and lengthen your tan, they will protect it from harmful rays. Good luck! "Life is always better tan" :)

Tanning bed go-ers?
What is the best product to use in your opinion?
Tanning bed go-ers?
Ive been tanning for a while now on and off and worked at a salon. Personally, I like Swedish Beauty products. Dangerously Dark is a triple bronzer with hemp it gives you great color, but you can't shower for 4 hours after you use it for the best color. Also Pink Diamonds is good I believe it is a 2 tingle, but I wouldn't suggest a tingle for someone who just started tanning. If your first starting out Ide say you should use Amaretto, deep bronzing treatment with a conditioner. Hope this helps!! Also make sure you wear goggles or peepers (sticker eye covers) they have them at every salon.
Reply:Swedish Beauty holds everything. Intensifiers, tingles, bronzers, extenders. As for a tingle lotion, Pink diamond's tingle power is a 2, Sinful is tingle power 7 it gives you a deep dark color, some others are Hot Amaretto TP10, Bonfire TP30, Unforgiven and Intoxicating TP40. Report It
Reply:Go to swedishbeauty.com if you want to check out other lotions or more information on any of the ones I mentioned. All I ask is make sure you chose a tingle that your skin can handle, Ive seen people use a 30TP and parts of their skin actually burned off. Report It

Tanning moisturiser??
Do these moisturisers that claim to offer "that hint of summer glow" work?
If so, what is the best one? And can you use the same one on your body and face? Do they smell nice?
Tanning moisturiser??
Most moisturizers do work, but they really do only offer a hint. I used to work at a tanning salon, and we would sell products like that, they contained a little bit of DHA (which is the main ingredient in sunless tanner), and you would need to use repeatedly to notice. It would be best to use these products after shaving, because shaving afterward would simply remove the product. You will see a better result with continued use. In terms of your face, both Jergen's and Oil of Olay manufacture products designed specifically for your face. :) Hope this helps!!
Reply:I used the Superdrug brand last year and i got a fabulous tan. I was really happy with the result. Don't think it costs that much either.
Reply:I buy the one from Dove and got to say the product really delivers- it gives you delicate color that builds over time- it’s best to use it every day for few days to get the tan look. It’s not as concentrated as the self tanner so if you mess it up a bit it does not show. The smell is nice too. Jergens also makes this but I absolutely hate the smell of my skin afterwards (smells like you did not shower after tanning in a tanning booth, yuck.)
Reply:I got one yesturday "dove summer glow" smells great , and works can see the difference after one aplication , takes 5 days to reach the best effect !! natural looking tanning and cheap !!
Reply:nivea or dove are good ones as they give u tan over the days ...so even if u mess up a little bit its no big deal ...also they are very soft and good to ur skin and smell nice !
good "tan" ;-)
Reply:I have Jergens and it has a bit of a smell it works but it takes a long time to notice on me but I am fair
Reply:I've tried a few of these products and Johnsons is definately the best. They do ones for body and also one for use on the face. They are quite subtle and give you only a bit of colour, but they make you look and feel brighter!
Reply:I dont like the smell of the johnsons one,the dove smells good
Reply:i use the johnsons one it gives you a really nice glow and leaves your skin nice and soft
doesnt smell too good at first but it soon wears off
not meant to use it on face but i use what is on hands to rub on face before i wash them
Reply:dior has a really good one, it doesnt leave streaks and doesny give to much colour, just a summer glow look.
Reply:Have you tried the one from Dove. It's v good and smells lovely.
Reply:I have tried Johnsons, Garnier and Piz Buin, but the best one I've found is Superdrugs own make. It's really good.
Reply:I have tried the Johnson's one it didn't smell very nice but it worked fine and made your skin soft.
I have also tried the Avon one I can't remember the smell but this worked OK too.
They work best if you exfoliate your skin first.
They need to be used over a period of time to build up the colour and don't forget to wash your hands afterwards so you don't get coloured palms.
It's better to use one especially for your face

If so, what is the best one? And can you use the same one on your body and face? Do they smell nice?

Reply:I used the Superdrug brand last year and i got a fabulous tan. I was really happy with the result. Don't think it costs that much either.
Reply:I buy the one from Dove and got to say the product really delivers- it gives you delicate color that builds over time- it’s best to use it every day for few days to get the tan look. It’s not as concentrated as the self tanner so if you mess it up a bit it does not show. The smell is nice too. Jergens also makes this but I absolutely hate the smell of my skin afterwards (smells like you did not shower after tanning in a tanning booth, yuck.)
Reply:I got one yesturday "dove summer glow" smells great , and works can see the difference after one aplication , takes 5 days to reach the best effect !! natural looking tanning and cheap !!
Reply:nivea or dove are good ones as they give u tan over the days ...so even if u mess up a little bit its no big deal ...also they are very soft and good to ur skin and smell nice !
good "tan" ;-)
Reply:I have Jergens and it has a bit of a smell it works but it takes a long time to notice on me but I am fair
Reply:I've tried a few of these products and Johnsons is definately the best. They do ones for body and also one for use on the face. They are quite subtle and give you only a bit of colour, but they make you look and feel brighter!
Reply:I dont like the smell of the johnsons one,the dove smells good
Reply:i use the johnsons one it gives you a really nice glow and leaves your skin nice and soft
doesnt smell too good at first but it soon wears off
not meant to use it on face but i use what is on hands to rub on face before i wash them
Reply:dior has a really good one, it doesnt leave streaks and doesny give to much colour, just a summer glow look.
Reply:Have you tried the one from Dove. It's v good and smells lovely.
Reply:I have tried Johnsons, Garnier and Piz Buin, but the best one I've found is Superdrugs own make. It's really good.
Reply:I have tried the Johnson's one it didn't smell very nice but it worked fine and made your skin soft.
I have also tried the Avon one I can't remember the smell but this worked OK too.
They work best if you exfoliate your skin first.
They need to be used over a period of time to build up the colour and don't forget to wash your hands afterwards so you don't get coloured palms.
It's better to use one especially for your face

Which is better a tanning bed or a tanning booth?
well i go to a tanning booth b/c personally tanning beds scare me but either way works just the same.

Which is better a tanning bed or a tanning booth?
30 minutes in the sun, a much safer and healthy was to tan. those tanning beds and booths can really ruin your skin and give you skin cancer. Even tho the sun can, your supposed to get 30 minutes a day of sun for your skin. if you do that everyday for 30 minutes, you slowly get a really good looking tan.
Reply:by tanning booth, do you mean the fake tan that is sprayed on, if so that is better. if not i wouldnt use either can cause skin cancer and premature ageing.. dont want to look like a cancerous prune later in life do we?
Reply:Stand up tanning booths tan you more evenly than the beds.
However, the spray on tanning is the best, hands down, due to not getting UV damage. It takes some practice to figure out the tricks to not have funny looking hands and feet, but it's SO WORTH IT.

Need to get a tan in 2 weeks using tanning bed!?
I have fair skin and usually always burn in the summer time. I would really like to try to add "some" color to my skin within the next two weeks. I don't expect to have brazilian goddess skin but anything darker than what I have right now. I have never used a bed before. How often should I go and how long should I spend in the bed? Do I use sunblock or the products supplied by the salon?? Any advice would be much appreciated. I know I have a limited amount of time but I want to do this the "smart" way and not pay for it later. Thanks all!
Need to get a tan in 2 weeks using tanning bed!?
yes use a tanning lotion, and go every day or every other. first vist go about 10-12 minutes and build up to 20-25 min.
Reply:you'll pay for it later if you go to any tanning bed, with early premature aging and risk of skin cancer. the best way to go is sunless tanning lotions, apply evenly on your skin every day and you'll get glowing, natural beauty without the cost, time and dangers of tanning beds.
go for jergen or nutragena brand.
Reply:This is just from personal experience but if you're looking to get dark quick I would suggest this: Go to the tanning salon and tan in a bed for the first 13 days. Buy the lotion they have at the salon (it does help you to get a tan faster). Put it on right before you get in the bed. For your first session, do the minimum amount of time (usually like 10 minutes) and with each session stay in the bed for a few more minutes each time till you reach the maximum of 20 minutes. Buy the "insurace" gel from the salon to put on after you tan. It prevents peeling, eases discomfort, and reduces burning. The last session, I would suggest doing the spray tan. Once you have a base tan, the spray tan works great at getting you dark and looking natural with one session. Hope this helps!
Reply:I would reccomend a fake tan, like tan in a bottle. If you do it right, you will look amazing.
St. Tropez is very good. You'll be looking tan without the streaks and orangish color!
You can also try.... This new tanning mit, it's pretty much fool proof, you can pick it up at your Local Pharmacy, it's made by Loreal.
I would avoid the tanning beds, you're more likely to burn then get tan in 2 weeks.
Reply:SAY NO TO TANNING BEDS!!!! I AM VERY FAIR SKINNED AND MY SKIN IS VERY DRY!!! I WENT TO THE TANNING BED RELIGIOUSLY ALL THROUGH HIGH SCHOOL. NOW AT 23 I AM NOTICING THE RAMIFICATIONS OF MY CHOICE TO TAN.
Reply:You could use a tanning bed for two weeks straight, but chances are you will burn horrendously if you go in for 10 mins on your first day, then you will spend a week trying to soothe the burn..I'd say 7 or 8 minutes in a tanning booth on your first shot is a better plan.(especially if they have new bulbs!) If you're afraid of burning I would stick to fake tan products- Jergens is one of my favourites.(they have bottles for your face, and your body.) good luck!
Reply:Don't go to the tanning bed especially if you're fair skinned. Bad news for your health. If the salon has one of those Mystic spray on booths try that or do a tan in a bottle. Some of the day spas also do spray on tans (like celebrities get...the good ones not Christina Aguilera's orange tan).
Reply:If you go to a good salon they do a skin evaluation for you and tell you how long you should go your first time, then if you dont burn you can add a few minutes each day. if you do burn wait a day and let it turn to tan before you try again or you will just burn more and your skin will peel. get a lotion from the salon (make sure its not a tingle) and get something to put on after to hold the tan. and put a sticker on your body somewhere when you go so you can see how dark your getting
Reply:ROFLOL. Do you notice all the questions in this section? They're all about trying to remove wrinkles! Why would you do something that will make them come faster!?
The only way not to pay for it later is to use a sunless tanning solution and skip the tanning beds!
Reply:I suggest neutrogena instant bronze %26amp; jergens natural glow.
Tanning is for fake broads, you'll look orange %26amp; in a few years your face will look discusting.

Tanning my body but not my face.?
My face is about two shades darker than the rest of my body and this i dont like. This week i am going to the beach to get a suntan and what i wanted to know is if there was a way i could darken my body but not my face. Like for instance i heard that if i lay in the sun and cover my face with a thick towel will this prevent my face from becoming darker is this or is it not true and is there a way that i could do this.
Tanning my body but not my face.?
wear make up colorer. there are also (hrd to believe) a face tanning thing. like a booth but you put your face in it lol
Reply:put a towl over your face while your tanning. i do that when i tan and it works.
Reply:Yeah you just use a towel or a higher SPF.
Reply:Do a spray-tan. They really work, and you don't have to do your face. You can either go into a salon, or at-home.
Reply:thats true alot of people that tan often sometimes dont want to tan there face so they throw a towel over there faces it works.. you could also wear some thick make up but.. that might be a little gross as long as you cover your face up then it wont tan.. just throw a towel over it.
Reply:Use a very high SPF moisturizer on your face, and only your body will become darker. I wouldn't suggest putting a towel over your face as it can get really hot and sweaty, which will make it difficult for you to breathe.

How many min. do I have to be in a tanning bed for a good tan?
i'm going for my first time in 2 days. How long do you have to be in one for a dark tan? And i'm going to be using just a classic bed
How many min. do I have to be in a tanning bed for a good tan?
The place you are going, for your tan, should recommend the amount of time. You will not tan in one session which is why most tanning salons offer packages. Tanning is usually done over a series of sessions with the time in the machine being increased slightly each visit until you reach the darkness that you desire.
Why not opt for a spray on tan? It is certainly much better for your skin (which will age/wrinkle faster due to the ultraviolet rays) and healthier (no risk of skin cancer). Spray on tans look natural, color is very fast and it lasts from 2 to 4 weeks depending on how well you take care of it.

If you had breast cancer and took chemo can you tan in a tanning bed without harming yourself?
I had a mastectomy Jan/16/05. I took chemo for three months. I want to tan but I'm afraid it will cause problems due to my cancer, even tho they got it all. I am on Femera. (cancer pill)

Reply:You are a glutton for punishment. Be glad you are alive and who cares about a tan.
Reply:Leave the tanning alone. Too much of uv rays can give you skin cancer.
Reply:If I had breast cancer, the last thing I would be worried about is "TANNING". I won't risk it at any time. There are some really great self tanning products on the market now, not like the old days where everyone turned ORANGE.
I personally like the Neutragena brand and the one they sell at the bath stores. True Blue Spa is really good.
Reply:with or without cancer you can not tan in a tanning bed without harming yourself..women that are sun worshipers are prone to skin cancer and early aging.. wrinkles..tanning beds are a false sun complete with all the harmful rays..you have survived one bout of cancer..don't push your luck.
Reply:I am a cancer nurse and totally against those darn tanning beds, but you deserve to do whatever you want to do after what you have been thru. If you want to tan, then take it very slow and don't set the dial more than 5 minutes the 1st time. Take it slow.
Hooray for you feeling like you want to do something positive for yourself. More power to yah!!!!
Reply:even if you haven't had cancer, tanning beds are harmful. They put harmful uv rays into your body
Reply:No. Going through chemotherapy is pumping chemicals through your body. These chemicals can cause lots of changes in your body. Your doctor should have told you to stay out of the sun (real and artificial). Sun damage is much worse if you've been through chemo.
Reply:I was told that women who have had breast cancer are twice as likely to get skin cancer as the average person. I can live without a tan personally... LIVE being the operative word here. I wouldn't risk it.
Reply:NO WAY. Stay away from tanning salons. In fact creams/body lotions are not so great for the skin. You should be thinking about using organic products.
Reply:My experience is that my skin was more sensitive and actually burned more easily right after chemo. I think it was one of the chemicals they used on me though. I could be out 5 minutes and it affected me as though I was out for an hour.
They say a LITTLE bit of sun is good, because the natural vitamin D in the rays of the sun help. If you feel so inclined to tan, please be careful. Never stay out too long; especially the first time. Also, don't go out during the peak ours; 11:00 am to 2:00 pm. I would also use sunscreen that protects against both UVA and UBV and does not have PABBA. One that I know of is Avon.
I really wouldn't recommend "tanning". Just getting a bit of color for a few minutes in the sun from time to time, while being protected against the detrimental rays.
Bottom line, don't lay out to "tan". Just be in the sun when you need to accomplish something that makes you have to be outside. Try to do it early in the morning or later in the day. And use sunscreen UVA/UVB. Wear a hat or use an umbrella. That's about it. Oh, and NO TANNING BEDS - EVER!
If you had breast cancer and took chemo can you tan in a tanning bed without harming yourself?
If you don't mind skin cancer.

Reply:You are a glutton for punishment. Be glad you are alive and who cares about a tan.
Reply:Leave the tanning alone. Too much of uv rays can give you skin cancer.
Reply:If I had breast cancer, the last thing I would be worried about is "TANNING". I won't risk it at any time. There are some really great self tanning products on the market now, not like the old days where everyone turned ORANGE.
I personally like the Neutragena brand and the one they sell at the bath stores. True Blue Spa is really good.
Reply:with or without cancer you can not tan in a tanning bed without harming yourself..women that are sun worshipers are prone to skin cancer and early aging.. wrinkles..tanning beds are a false sun complete with all the harmful rays..you have survived one bout of cancer..don't push your luck.
Reply:I am a cancer nurse and totally against those darn tanning beds, but you deserve to do whatever you want to do after what you have been thru. If you want to tan, then take it very slow and don't set the dial more than 5 minutes the 1st time. Take it slow.
Hooray for you feeling like you want to do something positive for yourself. More power to yah!!!!
Reply:even if you haven't had cancer, tanning beds are harmful. They put harmful uv rays into your body
Reply:No. Going through chemotherapy is pumping chemicals through your body. These chemicals can cause lots of changes in your body. Your doctor should have told you to stay out of the sun (real and artificial). Sun damage is much worse if you've been through chemo.

If you don't want to pay for an electrician, then turn it off at the wall.
