why cant i get tan?

i will go out side for 3 hours and layout. ive tryed it with veggie oil and tanning oil. i go to the tanning salon with tanning lotion and i will go for three days for 12 min. i did get a little tan. but i want to be dark tan. i need help! p.s i have used self tanner but i dont want to use it.

Answer #1

Some peoples skin just doesnt tan like others. I can spend every day in the sun and still be light skinned. I dont tan at all. Laying out with cooking oil btw is just asking for skin cancer and leather skin when your older. Get a professional spray tan, they go on more evenly and look more real and they are safer.

Answer #2

i would do the spray tan but i play volleyball and my knee pads would always rub off my self tanner. so i dont want to pay for a professional spray tan if its just going to rubb off

Answer #3

Answer #4

oops, in the third one just type in dark tanning oils in the bar on the top left hand side and you will find all of the dark tanning oils that cvs has to sell you!

Answer #5

some people just have less color pigments, so it’s harder for them to. it’s pretty normal. happens to me.

Answer #6

i used to not tan at allll. id lay out for ever and nothing would happen, or id get kind of burnt. im telling you, use banana boat deep tanning oil, the one thats spf 4. and use A LOT. you need to be dripping in that stuff. and re-apply it a little over every hour cause its only spf 4. but im teling you, it should work. it takes a couple times (if youre fair like me youre not gonna be black in one sitting) but it will get you where you wanna be. and make sure you just lay out and stay still! falling asleep is best.
