I have fair skin and I would like to be darker but I really do not want to go to a tanning bed bacause I have heard and read bad things about it. I have heard that it makes you age faster because it is more strength than the sun and I have heard that when you have freckles it makes them worse just like the sun, I've also heard that it blends them better. I have heard that yes, it looks good for the time being but you are damaging your skin and it will make yu age. I have a friend that recommended a lotion in the hand lotion aisle. She couldn't remember the name of it but she said that it helps you tan but it is not in the sunless tan aisle does anyone know?

Moisturizing may help combat the dry skin that goes along with tanning, but it won't prevent the damage or reduce the risk of skin cancer. If you're prone to develop dark spots from sun exposure, tanning will likely cause the same reaction.

tanning beds are not ALWAYS unsafe, however you should limit exposure in a tanning bed to less than 30 minutes per day. and ONLY utilize tanning beds that are certified.
