To tan or not to tan?

be the colour you are naturally.

forced tanning is a) lame, b) bad for you.

I read an article that in ten or so years time, it will be fashionable to be pale because every Tom, Dick and Harry will be orange!!! Besides in Elizabethan times it was cool to be pale because you were deemed to be above others because you weren't out workin in the fields getting a tan!!!

Tans only reall became fashionable in the 20's because of Coco Chanel and even then it only really became a big thing in the 50's.

I've never fake tanned or gone on a sunbed and the end of the day I'll be laughing when those people who go on sunbeds thrice a week have skin cancer and I don't

a) fake tan isn't bad for you
b) if you look better with some colour whats the harm? Its only the same as enhancing the way you look with make up or a nice haircut or whatever

Tanned is definitely better!

fake tanning isnt the only method of tanning you clown.

Yes I know but I'm saying that you dont have to cause damage to your skin if u want to tan anymore.
I dunno whats wrong with people on here sometimes, everyone tries to make themselves look better in some way or another unless they're a total slob, so getting a tan is just an extension of that. Or how about we all stop showering and washing and dressing nice as well? Its fine if u think that people look better pale but saying that people are pathetic because they want to look nice and healthy is far more pathetic.

I love fake tan, Body Shop Strong does me fine, all over the body, once a week. I think i'll get a St Tropez treatment over Easter hols though to go back to school looking as orange as possible.

Fake tan doesn't have to be chavvy, and you only end up looking like David Dickinson if you use sun beds.

It's nicer to look tanned (nice tone, not orange) than pale white and anaemic. Tanned is also way more sexy.
