i've researched some on tanning beds before for a school newspaper, and i would say that sunscreen really can't help you at that point. tanning beds are all-around unsafe. wearing sunscreen cannot and will not prevent you from the harmful UV Rays, and if it does, it does it minimally. i go tanning, and i recognized my consequences when i started. unless any type of skin cancer is prone in your family's genes, you're very unlikely to develop any cancerous illnesses from going tanning a couple of times. what sucks is that you have to go tanning repeatedly to keep it intact, probably once a week, or less depending on what you want. so you have to make a list of pros and cons- what is more important to you? prioritize, that's what i did. i hope i helped!

--also, using a (high quality) bronzing lotion will help you get a tan waay faster, and also help you keep it. they're ridiculously expensive in the tanning salons, but buying them from the brand's website is waaay cheaper.

thank you. :]

Hii I'm Mel. I've been through a lot and I've been my own counseler way too many times, so I've basically dissected many situations. You could call me crazy, whatever, we all are. I kind of have a borderline insane interest in the idea of fashion and creativity, and also in the French Revolution. I LOVE music, I could give you the soundtrack of my life for a million dollars. Umm yeah that's it. BY THE WAY, I would very much like to have a line forming all the way outside the funeral home the day of my wake. :)
