I want a tan!! I'm really pale. I mean, my body refuses to tan easily. I mean, I've layed out in the sun for about an hour and I have some tan lines but not really noticable. How can I tan better? I don't want to be the pale girl anymore! Oh and whenever I'm outside, I seem to get a lot of freckles...how can I stop that? Thanks~

I kind of have your same problem. I'm not really pale pale but my skin is light. And in winter, i have like no freckles..but in summer i get so many. Try putting on a sunscreen with 15spf for just outside activities. It should help eleminate the freckles , protect your skin, and still give you a little tan. For your tan, first put on like a 25spf(if there is one or just a 30) and then put on the tanning oil. This should help you so you don't burn, but you still get some sun. Good luck! :) ]
Seriously if your skin is that fair DO NOT USE TANNING OIL or w/e! I am the same way, I can't tan for my life. If you use that oil u will fry! Just lay out for an hour or two each day you'll gradually get one or there's always a fake one!!Good Luck!! ]
If you go to sun-tan again instead of putting sunscreen put a tanning lotion or oil. They help you get a golden tan. Even though you could always use a fake one like the ones they sell on the stored. Also, if you have light hair you could always make it darker. Dark hair makes your skin also look a shade or two darker.

Getting freckles is a sign that you've had too much sunlight. Really, even if you don't get freckles, UV radiation from the sun is still bad for your skin.
To avoid freckles, use sunscreen when you go out, and try not to stay in direct sunlight for too long.
Note that sunscreen does not stop you from tanning. If your skin will tan, it will tan even if you have sunscreen on.
Anyway, if you stayed outside for an hour and still didn't tan, fake tan is probably the best for you. ]
If youre body doesnt tan, theres really nothing you can do. But, since you cant get a NATURAL tan, you can apply fake bronzer. I reccomend Jergens Natural Glow! Or Nutragena [sp?] sunless tanner. They both work AMAZING. Because Im a red head with pale skin and it still looks good on me, not fake at all or orangey. Or you could go to a tanning booth. ]
Dear Friend,
UV Radiation from tanning can lead to all three varieties of skin cancer. As well as having a damaging effect on the immune system, tanning can cause premature ageing, giving your skin a wrinkled, leathery appearance.
Fake tan would be the best way for you to achieve that healthy glow. Neutrogena offers an affordable line of self-tanners that blend well and last for days. Try a bronzer on your face to match the depth of colour you choose. To avoid freckles, stay out of the sun or pile on 30+ or higher sunblock.
Love,

i have the same exact problem...you cant help getting freckles. the more you are in the sun, the more freckles you will get. try and use self tanners. or get tanning oil. and no matter how long i try and tan in the sun for, i dont get any tanner, i end up looking like a lobster. so try a self tanner. hope i helped!

well freckles are just how just how your body reacts to the sun, you cant really stop it. If you are one of those people who are really pale, the reason you wont tan easily is because your body (skin) is more likely to get red. there are too kind of ppl, the ones who tan naturally, and the ones who become red. if you want a tan, the only way you can do it is if you go to a tanning place, but that is your choice. If you dont want to do that, just spend your life, 24/7 in the sun. the first couple of times you will just go red, but then keep goin and you will tan, TRUST ME. (lol) take care
and good luck! ]
