start off in the hot sun for maybe 5 minutes, and do that every day or a few times a week for 1 or 2 weeks or until you notice your getting some color, you need a "base tan" before you increase, and lotion can help it. lotion helps your skin to absorb more of the sun.

Tanning simply means you ar burning your skin with the rays of the sun-considering that the sun's rays are so much stronger Now than years earlier due to the large holes(visible from outer space to Austronauts)in the Ozone Layer-protective covering from the Burning rays of the sun -filtered the rays it is no longer safe to lay out in the sun for long periods of time.Whenever you are in the sun you must use Sunscreen with SPF30or even higher to AVOID SKIN CANCER which has increased tremendously in the last several years. So if you must use SPF30+ and no more than 30minutes at one time-avoid 12Noon through 3PM when the sun's rays are the strongest due to the position of sun and earth to each other.Have you been to the CLARIN'S,Lancomb or Estee Lauder Counters at Macy's and other fine Dept Stores where the experts can advise you on HOW to use the Tanning Creams to get excellent tans for no one hardly lays in the sun to tan because of the increase in skin cancer and although some can easily be removed by Dermatologist by freezing with Liquid Nitrogen , the Melanoma etc Cancers can be fatal but use the creams or the tanning booth SPRAYS where jet sprays direct the tanning lotions in steady streams to assure a even all over or where you want tan.If you really wish to tn in the sun do it sensibly and do not BURN-every burn has Cancer causing Potential-may not show up for years. Tan smart and safe.

I also do, so I started going to a tanning salon and its great. The people that work there will only put you in a few minutes at first and then gradually raise the minutes until you get dark enough. I didnt burn at all. If your skin is too sensitive for that, a few of my friends use the Neutregena self tanning lotion and its doesnt turn your skin orange at all. If your not comfortable doing that yourself, alot of tanning salons now have a spray-on tanning booth and they work well.
Hope this helps!

Slowly. Dont go in the sun if its too hot, do it gradually using sun cream, and dont stay in it too long either. If you do u will just burn and peel. Slow and uva&uvb cream on allways. Or use these sun moisturisers for a tan and stay out of sun all together

well slowly introduce your skin to the sun....start with 10 mins in the sun...then 15 the next day and slowly up the time your in the sun so your skin has a chance to get use to it...you should also use a light sunblock so that you can still get color but not burn
