How can I be less pale?

Question

My skin is always pale and it really bothers me. The girls at my school wear shorts and skirts and have tan legs. I'm embarassed to wear even capris because of my pale legs. My mom says spray tanners make you look orange. I'm eating healthy and I've went to the beach. And after seeing final destination 3 tanning booths are a big no. What can I do?

Answer 1

I have the same problem, but you shouldn't be embarassed by your skin pigment, some people just can't tan as easy .

I would suggest getting outside and in the sun as much as possible, but if your like me, be sure to put some sunscreen on after you've been outside for awhile cause you might burn .

Answer 2

I'm very pale too, but I make it work. Be confident! Make your pale skin in!

Answer 3

use a bronzer,

Answer 4

when you go outside when the suns out use sun TAN lotion not sunscreen. If you have been using regular sun screen it blocks you from getting a tan thats why they call it sunblock. But sun tan lotion allows you to get vitamin D from the suns rays with giving you a tan and no sunburn!

Hope i helped and good luck!!

Answer 5

try a bronzer.?

or a tanning booth.. dont b so scared.

Answer 6

I am VERY pale and proud. It's nice to have fair skin, we won't get skin cancer or wrinkles. But if you're unhappy with it, try tanning. But I'm telling you, nothing wrong with being white.

Answer 7

Hahaha. Don't refuse to do tanning beds based on a movie. Aw. Lol.

But I am the same as you. I'm like, ghost white pale. I don't go into tanning beds either but that's just because they're not good for you.

I use tanning lotion. You can buy lotion tanners that don't look fake. I have used lots of different kinds that do turn orange and go streaky, but I started using one by Nivea and one by Vaseline, and they're gradual tanners which build up over using them for a few days.

They look very natural.

You can try those. Test out a few different ones to see which ones look the most natural on you. Not all of them are cheap and turn orange. You'll find a good one.

But don't let your pale skin bother you. Just know that you'll have nice wrinkle free skin unlike all the tan girls in your school. Don't be embarassed. Trust me. One of my friends, she's 21 and tans so much, and she's already got wrinkles. At 21. So enjoy your skin.

Answer 8

hoola blush by benefit

Answer 9

Use a lotion with some shimmer in it. Bath and Body works makes one that has a little bit of sunless tanner in it along with a beautiful shimmer......and the color is so subtle.

Or just mix some bronzer in with your lotion.

Answer 10

Well, first of all, the situation in Final Destination 3 is INCREDIBLY unlikely. Most salons have one bed per room and nothing higher than the bed that could lock someone in. And the temperature device is not in the room.

But, you could use gradual tanning lotion if salons really bother you. I go to one, though, and I'm quite tan and I love it.

It's not the healthiest, I know, but it's better to do it while you're young so your skin is more resilient and elastic.

Answer 11

im just the same as you,

but i got a spray tan and it turned out really well and they arnt expensive.

there is differnt shade of spray tan so just start light and work your way up until your happy with your colour.

Answer 12

not all spray tanners make you look orange, you just have to pick the right one for your complection.
