ok...i'm one who likes to tan in my backyard and i heard that if ya use baby oil u will tan better and faster

Answer 1

nope!!! the best thing to use are the "tingle" tanning lotions made for tanning bed use...i wouldn`t use anything else, i use the tingle lotions exclusively indoors & out!!! they increase your blood circulation which helps u surpass the tanning plateau that most tanners eventually reach by using regular lotions...i would recommend that u at least have a base tan before using the tingle stuff, though, cuz u can get a nasty burn otherwise!!!

Answer 2

Baby oil will burn your skin-anything with mineral oil in it will clog your pores and cause blisters. Remember it's better to use a low SPF-even if you're tanning. It'll protect your skin but allow your skin to get darker. Do this for a beautiful tan. Get a plastic spray bottle and add equal amounts of Coppertone SPF 8, Almost Famous Darkest Triple Bronzer with Hemp by Australian Gold (has anti-aging and slimming formulas in the ingredients), Ocean Potion Xcelerator Spray Gel and Aloe Vera Gel at the health food store. Shake the bottle and spray this mixture evenly while you're tanning every 2 hours. I suggest to tan for only 45 minutes a day, gradually to the achieved color you want. You'll see a difference! You can find all products online through google.com.

I guess you just are eager to get skin cancer. Use an SPF 30 lotion and sunblock 30 mins before you go out. Then when you get out, put a little bit of oil. I suggest if you do not have an olive skin complexion, that can take a little pounding fomr the sun; try paying 25 bucks for a spray tan. This way, you can avoid cancer and all the doctor bills of having you skin butchered and stitched up, and possibly dying.

Baby oil works, but don't use it if you are prone to burn and don't have a base tan. I suggest using, and I know it sounds weird, the oil spray black people use on their hair. It is a little less messy, and super easy to apply. Keep in mind, you may want to use a light sunscreen on those sensitive areas, and definitely don't stay in the sun for a long time with baby oil, or anything like it. You will burn! My husband swears he can't burn because of his American Indian skin, but the spray on oil did it to him. So, be careful, and do the safest possible thing for your skin, you will have to live with it your whole life!

Answer 5

Two words: Skin. Cancer.
My granpda needed to get new skin all over his nose from it. Nasty stuff.
If you're going to intentionally tan (which isn't the best, but, whatever) always use lotion. Baby oil will burn you up and leave you with wrinkly, leathery skin. Not sexy. Spray-on tans are safe and easy ways to look good, but if you still want to get a real tan, be safe and don't stay out too long.

Answer 6

Um i dont know about baby oil, but I heard that drinking carrot juice every other day will increase pigment. Just dont over do the carrot juice or you will turn yellow.

BTW, you should really watch out for the sun's evil UVB and UVA rays... you may not see effects now, but years from now wrinkles will start appearing and maybe you'll get skin cancer... the Sun causes these things!!!

Answer 7

you also have to put on your tan lotion but yes baby oil does help get a tan faster but you get a sunburn first....then it turns to a nice even tan ....if you dont use too much baby oil it will look ok

Answer 8

Any oil works but u should be wearing sunscreen. Skin cancer is quite prevelant and a couple shades lighter sure beats slowly losing you nose to skin cancer.

Answer 9

Yes that will work....it'll also make you look like a snake when you get a bit older.

Once you damage your skin you can't go back & fix it. Also don't forget about skin cancer.

Answer 10

Are you crazy? You'll burn to a crisp and your neighbors will think you're having a barbecue.
