I am leaving for florida in 3 weeks-every year the same thing
happens-i get there I get burnt I am miserable. I have extremely
white skin-in fact my nickname growing up was milk. this year I
am gonna smarten up and get color first--i have been 3 times
so far 4 minutes 5 minutes and 6 minutes----how should I continue and how long should i wait in between
Answer:I would suggest going about 3 times a week.. Always keep a day in between tanning. This way you arnt frying your skin. If you are starting to feel burnt, wait another day before going. Always wear lotion, if you dont, you are most likely to burn. When you get home put on regular lotion or a tan preserver. Good Luck & Have fun in FL. The weather is nice here right now
if i were you id go for 6 again then move up to 7 then 7 again then 8 then 8 again...i would do 7 then 7 8 then 8 9 then 9 10 then 10 and so on so your not moving drastically up and since you have fair skin stay down in the lower minutes for a little bit..
