Reply:Well, I am 14. I usually use Dove Tanning lotion. This gives you a sun-kissed tan that does not make you look orange. I have also tried the spray-on tans that are offered at the Tanning Salons. When i got this, the guy instructed me exactly what to do. I did listen, but not perfectly. I was told to wipe off my whole body when i got out just as i would if i were getting out of the shower. I did not. Therefor, i did have oragne spots on my feet, underarms, knees, and feet. This was not a pleasant sight. Although i did have orange spots scattered on my body, i also had tanned legs, arms, and stomache. So this did work, i just wasn't careful enough to wipe it off completely.
Reply:I go out by our pool in the backyard. I'm so happy we have a pool now :]
Reply:i lay out and use baby oil
Reply:I am 14. I can never seem to get the "perfect tan". I guess you just get some really expensive tanning oil, lay in the sun for 10 or so minutes at a time...any more and you will get burnt...and wait. (most of those "perfect tans" are fake, from tanning beds.)
Reply:i just lay out by my pool or go to the beach (:

Reply:I Go On Sunbeds
Reply:My age has never affected the time it takes me to tan, but I love to go to the beach, and lie in the sun for about 20 minutes. Then I apply sunscreen to the half of my body I just tanned, flip over, and repeat, so nothing gets burned.
Reply:I don't really get tan. I am as white as I was in January. However, soemtimes I use that Jergens natural glow lotion.
Reply:I ride my bike in a bikini top and shorts
Reply:I am guilty of going to a tanning place because even though I am 15 before I go to marching band I have to have a base tan and it works well. But natural tans are good but don't tan excessivly.
Reply:Mines a natural tan. When I was born I was pale, but as I grew older I became an olive colour then spread to a natural tan. No sun, no cream, NOTHING!! But I do get other sorts of tans. Eg: watch tan, collar tan (yup, my school uniform gave me it), and my swimming tan. Quite annoying really.
Reply:It all depends on your skin type. Some tan easy, some dont. I get a tan by just playing outside and swimming but i tan quick. Other teens go to tanning beds or lay out in the sun sometimes
Reply:I am 13 and i get my tans from hangoing outside. i don't sit directly in the sun, it happens over time. i wouldn't use tanning beds. not good for the skin. it can cause cancer and years later, make you look older.
