Okay, so I know it's not summer, but I want to achieve a dark glow. I also bought this before suntan lotion. Can I tan five times a week? Is it safe?

i used to work at a tanning salon. honestly, tanning everyday doesnt actually improve your tan. you can do that for the first week or two to get a base tan, but over time you eventually plateau and basically waste money. you only need to tan 2 to 3 times a week to maintain it. its not safe to go so often. you'll wrinkle early on in life and be exposed to harmful UV rays. i advise against it. try cutting it down to only 2 or 3

No- any tanning, even in the tanning beds is not sate- especially 5 times a week! If you must, keep it down to once a week.

No, it isn't particularly safe. It's just like if you laid out in the actual sun five times a week. It raises your overall risk of skin cancer, premature wrinkling, etc.
If you're cool with that stuff... then yeah, it's totally fine.

its not safe at all to tan. your just putting your self at level bagaillion for skin cancer. stop immediatly. while you sit there, your cells are basically saying to light, okay just us cancer now.

Yes, if in the future you want to have blotchy, brown spots all over your body. Don't do it at all!
