When your in the tanning bed, put towels over your arms so the rest of your body tans, and your arms stay the same color. I hope this helps. Good luck hun!

How To Tan Safely
The sun is meant to be enjoyed, to avail of a good suntan. Firstly, you need to acquaint yourself with the associated terms like Sun Protection Factor and Ultraviolet index.
Ultraviolet rays from the sun are absorbed by the skin, thereby producing melanin, which makes the outer skin dark in complexion. This looks like a tan but is nothing more than the skin being harmed. Ultraviolet index is a count of the number of ultraviolet rays that make it to earth. They are invisible and consist of UVA and UVB sub-types, both of which can cause havoc with your skin. This index is measured from one to 10. A higher index should warn of imminent sunburn.
Sunscreen lotions have a Skin Protection Factor, which is measured on a scale of 4-30. Dark skinned people who do not struggle to get a suntan should use one with the lowermost SPF and those with light skin should go in for highest SPF.
Sunscreen is not to be confused with sun block. Sunscreen lotions react with the rays of the sun and form a shield that protects the skin. Apply them 20 minutes before exposure to sun. Sun block creams do not have an SPF rating and they completely filter out the UV rays. It is quite messy. You can identify a sun block cream by the absence of an SPF rating.

Put baby oil on every part of your body except your arms and lay out in the sun.
