Tanning help!!?

Question

Hey everyone.

I really need recomendations from experienced people;
i wanted to get a tann in less than four days, i tried goin to the tanning salon for two days ina row, but nothing really hapenned, i usually get tanned fast, but this time i thought because it was my first time going to a tanning bed and it was the highest one there, i used some tanning oil wich had SPF.

Now i only have two days left.
I heard about Jergen naturla glow, its pretty cheap and supposedly very good. my questions are:

1) should i keep goin to the tanning salon and after tanning apply jergens?
2) Should i quit the tanning bed and just go for Jergens natural gllow? if so, how does it work and how long will it take for me to notice a different tone in my skin?
3) or should i say just buy an acelerator and go to the tanning salong for the other two days?

Please help! and thank you so much!!

Answer 1

Aveeno Active Naturals Continuous Radiance Moisturizing Lotion. No streaking whatsoever, and a really nice glow. The color is a believable-looking tan, not orange. you'll probably see the color within 4-5 days but at least a week, you'll see the finishing color. You must apply this self-tanner every other day or 2 days to maintain the color for a while. I like the smell, i think it's because soybeans. I tried Jergen natural glow, i hate it. The smell i can't take it anymore. The color looks orange and i see the glow. I saw the glow on my legs with Aveeno. Aveeno costs around $8-9.The good things about aveeno is that it moistures and smells great.

First of all you can not get a base tan in 4 days or less. It takes time. You should also be moisturizing daily and using a good tanning lotion you buy for the salon. You should not use oil in the tanning bed, that is only good for outdoor tanning. The lotion that has a self tanning is not meant to make a huge difference fast but a gradual difference in several weeks. I never noticed anything from it myself. You can also look into spray on tanning, I am not sure how long this last but it is the only instant thing I know.

The Jergens will not tan you enough in 2 days, it is too gradual for that IMO. You COULD apply it once in the morning and then once at night for 2 days in a row and you will probably have a light tan; you'd see a difference. But how tan do you want to get? There is a Jergens for Medium/Tan skins that you could try; it sounds like that's the one you'd need anyway.

You are supposed to tan over a period of time in the beds and skip a day in between sessions...I wouldn't try to rush it at all. Even darker skin types can burn in those things.

Answer 4

Quit tanning from the sun. It'll give you for-sure cancer spots on your skin as you age. Play the safe route by using fake tan lotions or the spray-on tan at tanning salons (they'll last 1 week). I think Palm Beach Tan has a special going on right now of unlimited spray-on mystic tans per month for $19.99/month while normally the tans cost that much individually.

Answer 5

Belive me, there is NO such thing as a safe tan. Get into a tan bed 4 15 min. and its as long as a whole day at the beach! Go 2 CVS, and you'll find a whole host of (better) beauty products.

About Jergens...
I've used this and it smells pretty strong and funky. It really is just to add a "glow".

I strongly suggest using "Build a Tan" by Neutrogena, Or one of the spray tans by Neutrogena . (I just saw one today that was about $9 and came with a pre-tanning scrub @ walmart!)

Answer 7

try mistic tan.. works great... and it works good for a fast tan...

or you should sit outside and tan around 11am -2pm you get tan really fast that way.. like go to your friends house with a pool..

also the jergens lotion works really good i tried it on my skin and i tanned over time but im not sure if it will work in 2 days..
