best home tan solution is baby oil and iodine mixed together when laying in the sun.   also, real lemon juice in your hair will lighten it up naturally.

I'm on the search for the same thing. I tried Jergensen's Natural Glow Daily Moisturizer, and it sucked with a capital S. It turned me orange, came off on my clothes, and smelled bad. Also, when i exfoliated w/ a washcloth, the ENTIRE tan came off. Seriously, it was supremely weird. Just thought I should warn you off that one . . .\nlol, good luck.

Even the hightest SPF screen won't completely prevent UV rays from touching your skin. That's what tans you. The sunscreen is to help you stay in the sun longer without burning. It always needs to be reapplied every few hours. You'll tan if you're outdoors and exposed, believe me.

Drink lots of water and eat a well-balanced diet.  Use SPF lotion daily and stay out of the sun.

Once it is gone it never comes back.\nGet some self tanning lotion and put that on it to hide it.\nOlay is really good--Olay Touch of Sun is very nice, light and natural looking.

Oil of Olay Complete for sensitive skin is a good option. It costs about $10 and has sunblock in it as well. Very light, not greasy either.

Try Dermablend.  I hear it's a PHENOMENAL cover-up to even out pigment.

Don't put on any moisturizers on your skin or suntan lotion.  This traps in heat.  Eat small meals, not large meals.  Do not suntan.  And above all, avoid heat in all forms, no saunas, really hot baths, sitting under potlights, standing by the stove, etc.  Avoid alcohol.\nKeep a water spray bottle and mist your skin with water whenever your skin becomes hot.  You should get your thyroid checked too.  I had hotflashes for two years and it was my skin that had become damaged and thinned from working in a foundry.  Good luck, they are horrible.

Dry skin. Maybe cooties.\n\nAre you using lotion during tanning? Clean beds? Lotion/moisturize afterward?

I think self tanner is the safest way to go.  Not only will it help prevent skin cancer but it will also keep your skin young looking.  You may not care about that now at a young age but I am 49 and look much younger because I use sunscreen.  Another thing that is bad for you skin is smoking cigarettes.  So dont tan and dont smoke!

The best and least expensive is Preperation H.  It tightens the skin and pulls the wrinkles right out!!  Only use a very small amount and rub it in completly. The results are amazing!

Avoid sunlight, use a very high SPF every day, even when it isnt sunny (because UV rays can come through clouds), try a "fade creame" which contains at least 2% hydroquinone, exfoliate your skin (use like a sugar or salt scrub) and moisturize.

You might try seeing a regular dermatologist.  I had a series of procedures like this in a clinical setting by my dermatologist to treat a skin condition.  \n\nAfter all, UV treatment is what you get at the tanning booth, so its not that special.\n\nYour link doesn't work.

Never use an SPF lotion in a tanning bed (it defeats the purpose of the bed and it wastes your money).  The bed is timed and a quality salon will recommend the amount of time based on your skin type and current coloring.  An SPF lotion will defeat that.  Only use lotions approved for use in a tanning bed when using a salon bed.  Tanning bed lotions never contain sunscreens, dyes or fragrances that could interact with acrylic surfaces.\n\nThe best lotion makers for tanning beds are as follows:\n\nDesigner Skin\nHoss Sauce\nCalifornia Tan\nAustralian Gold\nJohn Abate\nSwedish Beauty\nSupre\nBody Drench\nMatahari\n\nI personally use Hoss Sauce.  I find it to have the best and most moisturizing lotion complex available.  You will have to try them out yourself, though.  Most salons have trial packets in the salon that you can try.  They are usually priced between $3-5 per packet.  You can usually get about 2 sessions out of one packet (if you are careful).\n\nI have used California Tan and generally don't use it.  It really does nothing for me.  I have used Australian Gold, although it didn't do that well either.  I like Swedish Beauty lotions, but the fragrances are nasty.  I also like John Abate, but ditto on the fragrances.  I somewhat like Designer Skin (specifically Shrine), but only because of the hot... it's relatively hot.  Although, don't use a hot/tingle lotion unless you have been tanning for a while.\n\nAs far as Gradual Glow, you will need to read the package and see if it was designed to be used in a tanning bed.  The reason not to use a lotion in a tanning bed if it wasn't designed for salon use is that fragrances and dyes can cause rashes from the UV in the bed (when combined with the acrylic surfaces).  So, avoid lotions that are not designed for salon use to prevent unwanted acrylic interactions.
