when I use a tanning bed (super ultra or mega) or go ouside out in the sun my face doesnt get tan, but it gets somewhat like more pale? but my arms and legs get red/sunburned/tanned and my face doesnt. anyone know why? should I just be using sunblock and not even try to get tan so my face is atleast a normal shade.

Yes, you shpuld always use sunscreen with an spf of at least 15. Prevents against skin cancer, aging and other damage caused by the sun.

It might not be your favorite answer, but honestly everyone should use sunscreen daily.. no exceptions. Skin cancer is so easy to help prevent, and since we're going into winter no one is really going to think any less of you for not being tan.. Well, unless your friends are really harsh... :)

Personally, I think tanning beds are dangerous. Whenever you go outside you should be using sunscreen.

I don't know why yor face doesn't tan, but you should use sunscreen at all time because if you don't you could get skin cancer.

but you should be wearing sun block everyday. like spf 15

definately. sunscreen prevents pre-mature aging and skin cancer. my cousin NEVER wore it and got skin cancer all over his face by the time he was 13 and had to get it removed- painfull price for his stupidity.

do you use any mositerizers that have spf in it?..cause that could be the problem. Otherwise, I don't see how your skin doesn't change.
