Default Fake Tans

What do you think about fake tans? I can't stand them. I'm so glad I never got one! Lol. My mom used to do it, and she looked so weird. I don't mind being pale. It works for me

Do you mean going to a tanning spa or using some kind of a cream that makes your skin darker? I remember having powder foundation that did it, it didn't look too bad, but it was such a hassle to apply - just for this temporary tanned effect. I don't mind being pale, either.

I totally agree. Tanning makes people look like they have been baked in an oven for hours and it is far from being a natural look. Moreover, it is really bad for your skin. I would never get a tan in one of those places.

I mean either one. I think the temporary tan is probably fine, but is it safe for your skin?

Well, since it's just a coloring cream (or powder) that you remove hours later, it is safe - tested by dermatologists just like other cosmetics. It's a pain to use though. I mean, you have covered your face, what about your neck? Back of your neck? Hands? Arms? How far do you want to go with it? LOL!

Most of white/pale skinned people wants to have a tan skin. While brown/tan skinned people wants to have a fairer/pale skin.

Too much exposure to sunlight can cause skin cancer. Be happy of what skin color you have. Tanning won't make you beautiful, it will just make you look like oven baked for hours.

I think people always want what they don't have. I notice (for ex) a lot of girls with blonde hair want brown or visa versa. Or, people with straight hair want to have curly hair. I used to be that way, but I like my straight hair. Curly hair would be hard to maintain.
