What's the right time/amount of time needed to get a good, dark, even tan?

Question

i am a rather fair skinned girl, and it's been a while now since i have had a good tan. i strongly dislike self tanners, and tanning booths, and spray on tans.. so please tell me when the best time to go out and tan is, and how long i should stay out for.. help?

Answer 1

You should go to the lake, by pool, or whereever sun is at around 10 am...stay for about 6 hours putting on sun block so that you don't get too burnt. That is the first day. The next day you should stay the same.. then wait about 2 days before you go out again.. you will have a beautiful natural tan. You should stay mouisturized though so that your skin does not dry out. Do this every weekend and you will keep your beautiful tan.  

Answer 2

just lay out in a bathing suit on a towel. make sure you use extra sun screen if you are fair skinned. trust me it won't prevent you from getting a tan it will just save you from deadly skin cancer. lay out for maybe half an hour the first time and work your way up
