I was determined not to be pale and white this summer. I hate wearing shorts, and have one leg that has some spider veins and red blotches that I'd love to minimize. So I bought minutes at a tanning salon. 3 months later I have "some" color....

I haven't had a real tan in nearly 10 years. If I'm outside these days, it's with my 2 year old at the park. In that case, we've both been slathered with sun block. You can just imagine how white I am. :o)

Now that summer is almost over, I...

Cons: Doesn't last long; needs to be reapplied frequently.

Pros: Light foam, easy to apply evenly, doesn't turn orange

It’s funny how attitudes toward tanning reflect social mores. Until about the 1940s or ‘50s, pale, white skin was prized, because a tan implied that you worked outdoors, and people who worked outdoors usually were doing manual labor. So the “upper”...

I started using self tanners many years ago after reading
about how harmful my visits to the tanning beds were. There
had to be a better way to look tan without spending the
money and time it took to bake under a lamp. Since I
am a...

Pros: natural looking tan and non-streaking
Cons: a little sticky at first but fine once it dries.

I bought this product on the recommendation of a friend and also by doing a little research here at epinions on the different brands of self tanner's.

The product I went with is The Sunless Tanning Foam "Deep". I am really satisfied...

Pros: Easy to apply, nice scent, subtle color
Cons: May require more than one application

My first memories of "fake tan" lotions were back in the 70s, when I was a kid. I was an only child, and my mom and I did a lot together. Once she decided to try some self-tanning lotion, and it turned her a ghastly orange! We laugh about it now, but the...

Pros: Easy to control, mostly natural color
Cons: Turned the top of my foot orange

This was my first ever experience with what we used to call 'fake bake' when I was in junior high. My memory of it at the time was that you could tell the girls who used it by their orange skin. But that's been 11 years ago- surely they've improved it...

Pros: works fast, dries pretty fast, cheaper than some
Cons: color difficult to get smooth, left skin dry, color not quite natural

To call me fair-skinned would be an understatement. I'm one of those folks who is always being accused of being anemic, even though my hematocrit is fine, thank you. Any natural tan I ever got as a youngster matured into an icky yellowish color. Oh...

Pros: Better than skin cancer. Won't streak if applied evenly.
Cons: WIll streak if not applied with care. Didn't match my skin.

Looking through the other sunscreen reviews, I see that a lot of them start with...

Pros: Less than 5 minutes drying time, fresh fragrance, non-streaking, fun foam
Cons: Even with "Deep" formula, tan is very subtle, so requires repeated applications to achieve a noticeable tan

I should have taken the manufacturer's claims more literally. When the bottle said "Get a healthy-looking glow with this safe alternative to tanning," I assumed the copywriter was just being poetic. However, after several applications of...

Pros: easy to apply, great color for me,
Cons: doesn't last as long as they say

I love summer! I love the sun! I love the island we spend two weeks on during the summer months. I love being out on the water. I love going to barbecues....picnics...fairs. Guess you get the idea. I also love to be comfortable. Like many of us,...

Pros: Took away my Casper-glow legs
Cons: Hard to use properly on other body parts

As summer approaches each year, I dread my choices...wear pants and suffocate or wear shorts and blind everyone with the ghostly glow of my legs. As an auburn-haired woman, I have suffered the fate of the perpetually pale my entire life. I do NOT tan...
