Just bought this, was curious how long and how many times I should tan to get good color. I'm pale/fair toned.

Start off with tanning every other day or so. Only tan for about half or two thirds of the time allowed for any given tanning bed. Gradually increase your time. Use lotions with bronzers in them. Using a variety of lotions and different level beds helps increase your color. Once you start to see results, keep at it.

One is much lighter - two for me requires a good tan but I'm fair completed. I like to keep one of each and blend depending on my tanning regimen or time of year. It doesn't take much!

Im pretty happy with the color. Definetly raised my body tempature, I felt so hot afterwards but it wasnt a tingle. My face is still hot and I tanned 2 hours ago. Im pleased, could be more moisturizing though.

The length of your tan depends on your prep before, the solution you use and the care you use once you have your tan. Definitely exfoliate before especially backs of heels, ankles, knees (front and back) and front of armpit (outer chest). Make sure you do not use any moisturizers and are COMPLETELY dry before you apply tan. Do not shower until the next day after you tan and do not scrub your body...use only soap and your hands. Use a moisturizer after showering. I use Norvell solutions and they have a moisturizer that has a self tanner. My daughters legs will last up to two weeks while other areas only last a week.

I think "fair to natural" would be too dark for fair, freckled skin..this product seems to be for only light tan/tan skintones..even the "lightest" one is too dark...

I apply this after I shower. Make sure you are completely dry as random droplets will mar your color. Hold the can about 12-15 inches away and spray continuously, moving the can in long sweeping arcs. I've done it enough now that I'm able to get even coverage, but when I first started using it, I would smooth the product over my skin (with a gloved hand--or it will stain your palm). It sometimes takes a couple of days application to get a perfectly balanced tan.

If you are normal color of Asian, 21 would be better, but in case of me, I tanned a lot here so I chose 23 and it fits me well. :)

I use to manage a salon, I can honestly say to start with a good accelerator and then go to a bronzer once you develop color. Also, This particular bronzer is nice but leaves lines as if you were spray tanned, so definitely don't start with this if you are pale!

I have a natural tan and the natural beige works for me. Also depends on your skin tone, if its warm or cool. But I think it would be between the natural and the buff.

All depends on how often you apply your tan. I typically do a full application once every 5-7 days, I've found that one bottle lasts about 2 months for me give or take a few days. You might have to touch up your tan a little in between full applications but for the price you pay you get your money's worth out of one bottle!

The *only* place I had an issue with that happening was on my nose. I applied it before bed, and once I took a shower the next morning I just scrubbed it off. I had to scrub some off my knees too, because they looked too dark. Overall my tan is very even and natural looking.

I would suggest having someone else spray you. The directions say only to use in up and down strokes to keep your tan even. It is extremely hard to evenly tan yourself without missing any spots (I've tried)

Im a daily tanner as well. This gives you an instant deep dark tan! Especially if you tan easily!! (I don't. And this is my absolute favorite!)

I have had great results. Tans lightly, softens skin. Requires careful even application, careful removing from hands, elbows, and knees so it does not get to dark.

I have pale skin as well and I bought the lightest color this came in and it was still to dark for my skin. I ended up giving it away :(

Depends on how dark you want to be and how much of your body you want to be tanned. I would say a good bronzing on fair skin ...applying it 3x a week to arms and legs and chest...you will get about 2-3 weeks out of a can. The trick is to keep the bronzing going...so you dont have to use as much each time..

Its a good lotion check to see if it has a bronzer in you could use it if you start slow . you can use it but tan about 5 are 6 minutes only in taning bed. because all skin types react different ly but it is a good taning lotion
