Don't do it in the first place... that's the best way to avoid skin cancer.

Use fake tan, there are moisturisers that you can use that give a more natural looking tan, that way you wont damage your skin via sun beds or whatever.
I've never used it myself, but some of my friends have, and they say it can be really good to use, give it a go

THAT IS INCORRECT!!!

Ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun is the number one cause of skin cancer, but UV light from tanning beds is just as harmful. Exposure to sunlight during the winter months puts you at the same risk as exposure during the summertime.

Cumulative sun exposure causes mainly basal cell and squamous cell skin cancer, while episodes of severe sunburns, usually before age 18, can cause melanoma later in life.

Please DO NOT continue to spread that misconception...the sun DOES cause skin cancer. to tell people otherwise is not only wrong but puts them in danger if they take your advice.

I'm not sure where you heard that, but it's completely false. If it wasn't true, it wouldn't be said. Doctors don't joke around about cancer.

the sun block dose give you cancer

Again, this is completely false. What proof do you have that it causes cancer? Why don't people who use sun block get cancer, and people who don't use it do? Sun block helps to AVOID skin cancer. It blocks the harmful UV rays from getting to you.

You could use tanning creams. But in reality you probably aren't going to get skin cancer by tanning once in a while. If you're excessively in the sun, yes. But if you tan less often, I'm sure you'll be fine.

both tanning beds and the sun directly cause skin cancer
and prematurely age your skin and face, just like sun exposure does
as well as numerous other things
the only safe tan is a FAKE tan
one form a bottle, spay on, wipe, cream or can
be smart and get a fake tan
and its about time user roisinroo got educated
