I know i know it causes premature aging and skin cancer but I love to tan. I am not a tan-a-holic by any means I only tan during the chilly winter months. It just feels so good to bake in the warm bed and come out looking sunkissed! I have a golden glow naturally because im half Italian so it doesn’t take much for me to get dark fast. I have been tanning for some time now and know the ropes pretty well. Which beds to recommend, which lotions ect. I use a tingle lotion which is recommended for ” expert tanners only ” because they can be a little alarming. A tingle lotion increases blood circulation and excites your melanin, which brings it up to the top layer of your skin, causing it to oxidize faster. The more oxygen your melanin is exposed to, the faster you tan. I have never tried a spray tan but I wouldn’t say they are horrible contrary to popular belief. You don’t always come out orange lol. Anyways… I went tanning today and it was so satisfying i just thought id blog about it. I can’t wait for summer to show off my bronzeness hehe.
