Why Would You Wanna Get Tan?

Question

One of my friends who has very light skin went to the beach to get tan yesterday. I was suprise when he came over to my house today. His skin looks like... how should put it... "Oompa Lumpa Skin Color?" And he said that he likes that skin color, I was about to laugh but I try not to lol. He said that it's a chick magnet so I was just wondering... is it really a hot/kool thing to get your skin tan???

he looks orange.. kinda like the colors of a freshly baked cookie.

Answer 1

ew. no. not cool. um.. a little tan is ok (completely white is sickly) but not oompa loompa colored-.- u may wanna warn ur friend of this next time he comes over... and please [please] dont try to tan like that-.-NOT A CHICK MAGNET!

Answer 2

That "Oompa Lumpa" color is probably from a bottle of bronzer. If it was from the sun it will be more of a pink for a fair skinned person.

A lot of fair skinned people want a tan because it makes their skin look more even in color rather than blotchy or freckled.
Us older fair skinned people just don't care anymore.

Answer 3

Tanned skin looks more toned than pale skin because there is more depth to the color. Now as far as Oompa Loompa orange, your friend needs his eyes checked!

Answer 4

Tan is in and girls love it, usually people turn a bronze color. I dont know why your friend turned into a oompa lumpa.

And, in case you get badly burnt, and your dermis starts peeling, and so forth., Aloe Vera is dazzling for that style of ingredient. gently rub it onto your burnt-spot and permit it cool for somewhat. yet once you probably did have a medium complexion, use a tanning solar block (SPF 4), this might shrink your hazard of burning, and supply you a tan without the burn. stable success! attempt to no longer stay interior the solar too a lot nonetheless, it will improve your possibilities of dermis maximum cancers!

Answer 6

Natural sun shouldn't make you look "Oompa Loompa-ish".... Maybe he used sunless, as most of those products will.

I think it depends on your personal preference, I feel more confident with darker skin.
