I agree with you. There are notices about health risks related to tanning. But people seem to think that they are just jokes.

I don't understand it. Those who aren't very pale want a tan anyways. Why do they feel the need to darken their skin further? I don't think that it makes you look any better. Or it could just be me.

I don't understand the whole "beach" thing. Personally I can't stand beaches, too hot, too much sand, the ocean doesn't taste nice. I just can't find anything *fun* to do on beaches.

I much prefer a nice snowy mountain side

Which can also get you tanned quite nicely

It's quite true. It's easy to get a tan on a mountain. The sun glare from snow helps too. I presonally don't like beaches either. Ocean water is sticky and unclean, not to mention that I rather despise sand.

And trying to eat lunch on the beach is something I just can't do. The sand gets all over your food somehow, no matter how careful you are! Beaches should be destroyed...or something. Or maybe I should just avoid them

I think its faster to get a tan from snow glare anyhoo...its just slighlty cold lying almost nekkid on a mountain.

I don't try and get tan. It just sorta happens. I have no desire to lay in the sun for 6 hours. *shudders*

I have gone to a tanning place once, but that was only for a short period of time to get rid of these nasty tan lines on my arms. And I'm pale enough that it wouldn't hurt me at all to tan a bit.

I too, tan too easily. Thus, I put on globs of sun-tan lotion. Supposedly, you're supposed to put on that stuff year-round.

Anyways, I actually like having pale/fair skin.

I use SPF 45 and put on a layer, let it dry and the slab some more on. Maybe that'll work for you too.

Just remember that sunscreen expires after several months. So if you're gonna slather it on, slather on the fresh stuff.

Anyway, if you really want to get a nice healthy tan, that's impossible. Tans occur because your skin is bombarded with ultraviolet radiation, which damages cells, particularly the DNA, which can lead to skin cancer. A tan is your body's emergency response to extended solar exposure.

If you absotively posilutely have to be golden brown, go to a spa and get a professional spray-on tan. It offers no protection, but does have that "I spend time in the sun" brownish tinge to it that the bottled tans don't.

Anyway, Sugarinii, the only reason anyone lays out is to get you to make up words like "kerslumpflull."

Somewhow, I fail to be shocked that people are stupid enough to be content to lie around getting skin cancer

yeah i dont do tanning beds. cancer in a coffin? no thanks.

i dont have the attention span to lay outside under the sun.

The only way I'll get tan is if I'm outside doing something like yardwork or swimming or an outdoor day concert....and usually I burn 1st lol. I need to learn to wear sunblock.

I want a tan. I'm not pale, I'm just really white. Also, I think beaches are fine for me. I much rather prefer those than a snowy mountainside. But, I have lived in warm-hot places all my life, (Phoenix, Corpus Christi, and Austin) and I'm used to the beach as I lived in Corpus Christi, Texas.
