how i got this tan as someone very pale

🤍 tan every day you can for 1-2 hours. i would recommend only doing 45 minutes- 1 hour if you are as pale as i was. you can gradually work your time up to two hours.

🤍 stay hydrated have food beforehand. while tanning, it is a good idea to have a water by you to stay hydrated because you tan better when you are hydrated and to gain back all the water you are losing in your body from sweating. eating before tanning also helps your body tan more.

🤍 use maui babe. maui babe definitely helped me get a lot more tan this summer than any other. i apply an even layer before i go out to tan and it makes me so much more darker!

🤍 take breaks. you might want to lay out for hours on end, but that isn't good for you! if i am tanning for two hours, i go inside for a minute or two before tanning for the second hour.

🤍 do not tan if you are burnt! tanning while you are burnt only makes it worse. if you are burnt, stay inside and put aloe on your body to help soothe the pain. i have also found that putting on lotion helps my skin heal from burns.
