For the sake of your skin’s health, I absolutely cannot advocate using a tanning bed, or being out in the sun without an SPF of at least 15. The concentration of UV rays a tanning bed emits is quite high, and will contribute greatly to premature
wrinkling, dryness, and even skin cancer, which is one of the
fastest growing cancers in the USA. Really, it just isn’t worth
risking your health over. Not to mention that a tanning bed
doesn’t provide a very attractive color on most people.
Instead of trying to fight your skin’s natural color, why not
revel in it? Pale skin is sexy and glamorous, and can look
absolutely stunning in vibrant colors such as red and hot pink.
If you really want to add a bit of color, use a self tanner like
Coppertone, Bain de Soleil, Clarins, or Neutrogena. Be sure to
pick the lightest shade available.
