Whatever you do, do not put oil on your skin, you will fry!!! Just sit in the sun for 20 mins a day and then gradually increase it. Its the safest way to do it, your tan will last longer and you will only sustain minimal damage to your skin. Don't know whether that's good advice or not!!! Maybe you should just use a fake tan. I know there not that great, but your skin will appreciate it when your older and wrinkle free.

well i dont know if you put it on the night before if itll still work but either way, just buy tanning lotion and get wet before you start tanning, like dip in the pool first and then sunbathe, or if your not by a pool, just wear tanning lotion, go outside, have fun and dont think about getting tanned, and next thing you know youll be tanned

You need to be very careful in the sun if you have fair skin. Getting sunburn is not healthy and your skin will just blister and peel anyway, so back to square one!
If you want to get a decent tan, you need to build it up with gradual exposure. Start off with a high sun factor (about SPF15) and reduce it as your skin starts to tan. (SPF 10 then 8 etc)
Don't forget to drink lots of water too so you don't dehydrate!
Best of luck!

Go outside, wear some light sunscreen (like SPF5), wear a bathing suit, and voila, you've got a tan.
