Is it bad to put tanning oil on my face?

Question

im peeling on my face so now my face is really splotchy..and im really tan (because im already naturally dark for my skin ton)...i need to make it one color..is it bad to put tanning oil on it??

Answer 1

The tricky thing I have learned about this is that if your skin is splotchy already, the color will darken accordingly.  So, if you have different tones and some are darker already, those will darken and the others will probably match the lighter spots.  If you were going out into the sun, I would try tanning oil on it before I would ever put a self tanner on it but be careful with both.  Try it and then just keep a close eye on it.  

Answer 2

um, why don't you try to just use a simmple, good sunscreen on your face and stay out of direct sun. tanning oil could make you burn and that would lead to more peeling. you can use it but be extra careful

Answer 3

No, its bad to put it on period. You can have skin cancer and other skin problems...
