The guy is a fair skin redhead in the pic. He wouldn't tan much even with tanning.
I did the Mystic Tan both before our wedding. Also did a few real high powered tanning machines. It is so bad for your skin but felt vry relaxing.

Tanning is not healthy. It's how your body tries to protect itself from exposure to dangerous UV rays. I think it's pretty weird we find this attractive... but I guess it could be worse.

Maybe the next bad for you but looks good fad will be rug burns or scabs.
"Liberals believe government should take people's earnings to give to poor people. Conservatives disagree. They think government should confiscate people's earnings and give them to farmers and insolvent banks. The compelling issue to both conservatives and liberals is not whether it is legitimate for government to confiscate one's property to give to another, the debate is over the disposition of the pillage."

Why not try one of the more expensive self-tanners? I've seen a number of women around here who use them during the winter time, and when done right, it was pretty hard to tell whether they fake'n baked or not.

Tanning is so relaxing tho. I love to go tanning even if it's only once in a while.

I'm totally against tanning - I think it's nasty, but mystic tanning is kind of cool, expensive though, and also, it's hard to make it blend well into your hands and feet.

for the mystic tan you need to do the lotion on your toes, between the webs of our feet and same with the hands. It is a bit pricey and doesn't last long. One thing that I did find nasty was that when I worked out I was sweating mystic tan. It came off on my towel.. ewww. Then again being pasty white is kinda eww also.

mystic doesnt come out orange at all.. it's the closest to a real tan that I have ever seen .. you actually go into a booth and get sprayed by a machine so it goes on evenly

I lay out in the sun with all my clothes on. It feels so warm and comfy and I love it.

Other than that, I have a classic farmer's tan. I never wear shorts and I wear long sleeved shirts as much as short sleeved shirts during the summer.

Did you see that Friends episode where Ross goes to get a spray tan but he cant work it and he ends up getting an 8 twice on his front and none on his back. Oh man its cute.

My cousin does the mystic tanning. She likes it and it looks really good. Just have to be sure to dab the access off or you will be streaky.

No you can't. Until you've tried it, you have no idea how relaxing it is.

I used to love the sun. I spent most of my time outside back then. I bought a tanning bed because I had kids and I didn't have time to lay out for hours and hours drinking wine coolers anymore, so there I was...laying under this artificial light, loving my tan.

After having it for about five years my skin began to itch constantly after I had been under the light. Now I get a rash when I am in the sun even...I threw that 1070 dollar contraption in the garbage and will never use one again.
They are fun tho!

Do u do nails too X?

I rub weapons grade plutonium all over my body concentrating on my inner thighs... it gives the most beautiful tan.

I rub my whole body with a paste of cocaine and saliva especially in my privates because it extends my sexual ecstasy.
