Pre-paring your skin for a hot hot holiday

Im going o holiday in 6 months to the dom rep! Im a pail girl so I tend to burn when I go on holiiday. Cancer runs in my family so really want to take care of my skin but still manage a healthy sun tan. I was thinking of doing a few mins a week on the sun bed a few months before I go to build up a slight tan so I wont burn so much.

What do you think?

I use a hight factor.. But I dont want tot be in the shade all day I love playing in the pool and sun bathing!

Answer #1

I find that using a self tanner, like coppertone endless summer gradual tan, 3 days before I go out in the sun and using the highest spf every 3 hours works for me. I have not burned in 3 years since doing that.

Answer #2

tanning means burning a tan happenes from sum damage and even just 15 minutes in the sun is enough to cause skin cancer and the more thas you get, the greater your risk of getting them the only safe tan is a FAKE tan one from a bottle, can, spray, cream or wipe so go for a fake tan, unless you want prematurely ages skin and the risk of skin cancer as for the sun wear a high spf sunscreen and wear clothes that also cover your skin long sleeved tops and hats. ect
