Answer 1

You've probably left by now, but I'd reccomend a sun spray called Piz Buin (tan intensifier).  Get the correct SPF so that u don't get burnt or increase ur risk of skin cancer.  Exfoliate before the first time u sunbath too and use Aftersun after sunbathing.  Try to be patient and try not to use a sunbed as u'll regret it when ur older and have horrible dry wrinkly skin.

Answer 2

A tan is skin damage,and can cause cancer.

I just stay pale and healthy.

My cousin,a former sun-worshiper,has recently been diagnosed with malignant melanoma.

Answer 3

If you're really pale I would have recommended that you go on a sunbed a couple of times leadingup to your holiday. I am against frequent use of sunbeds but it is ok to go on them once or twice before a holiday as it prepares your skin for the sun.

If you are really pale like me then I strongly recommend that you are sensible when it comes to tanning,always use suncream as trust me you don't want to burn in the sun it will ruin your holiday and peeling red skin is not attractive! I know this does not directly answer your question but it is imperative that you look after your skin and not burn. Have a good holiday :)

Answer 4

I also use fake tan on holiday.

Get an aftersun with fake tan in it, or a tan enhancer.

Answer 5

Use some spf 50 and make sure you stay not too long, that you may lose your protection.

Answer 6

It shouldn't take too long but just remember to use suncream cause tanning is actually bad for your skin so be careful

Answer 7

You can't get tan instantly. If I am pale I get powder tanner makeup and brush it all over me, just make sure it isn't noticeable. If you want to tan quicker use water because it maginifies the sun and you tan about 3 times faster believe it or not. Also, after you tan make sure to wait 2 hours after to take a shower because it just washes the extra melonin that your skin has just produced. (Melonin is what makes your skin darker.) Then use lotions after you go tanning not before because most lotions have spf in them.

If you are really pale, you should be in the sun for a lot of hours, trust me.

And remember to use sun protector, so that you won't tan really bad.

Answer 12

Seeing as you're pale unfortunatly you will never tan properlly, just burn then maybe a slight colour! What I do is use a gradual tanner before I go away so I already have a light glow, use it on holiday at night just as a mosteriser then you're tan will become darker along with you're natural skin, when you come back everyone will think you've gotten a great colour ;)

Answer 13

the best hing u can do is buy a factor 25 sunlotion and u will get a lovely golden tan that will last no opeeling etc make sure u keep topping up if u want the last couple of days u can use a 15 or 20 just 2 top it up trust me u will have a nice colour that will last make sure u moisturise ur face and body every evening this helps keep ur tan 2  

Answer 14
