When in doubt, pick Random Weirdos.
Um, so I'm REALLY pale. Like, my skin GLOWS when it gets in sunlight.
I've tried to tan, and all that happens is I burn a little, or nothing happens. I was at the beach with my friends, in sunlight the whole time. I had sunscreen on - just a light coating of SPF 25- 'cause I didn't want to burn, but all I got was a little pink on my shoulders.
Also, I have a tan line from my watch from last summer (never went away). Is there a way to get rid of that naturally?
Oh yeah, I CAN NOT use any self-tanners or sunless tanners, and I can't "go tanning". My mother is allergic to like, everything, and I'm still living in my house at the moment.
How do I get tanner without burning, and without "going tanning" or using sunless tanners? I'm kinda sick of being all pale.

OR if you dont mind being 'temporarily' tan then you can use a body bronzer all over when your going out. it makes yous skin glow, but in a pretty way 0:).
