Wow! I tanned today and used tingle w/ bronzer on my face,and I felt like someone was blow torching my face.I like the 10 minute stand-up tan,instead of the 20 minute lay-down bed,and I swear,that 10 minutes felt like 30 minutes!I felt it actually SIZZLING my face!! Note to self:"NEVER USE A LOTION WITH TINGLE ON MY FACE"!
Oh but I don't always tan my face either,because I've seen people who tanned their faces too much and it caused health problems and rapid ageing....so in general,I don't tan my face.But today I walked out looking like a swollen tomatoe! OUCH!It's still burning now,but not as bad.I hope my face calms down before I go to work.LOL....I'm quite sure it would get a good laugh or 2 though!

oh dear, sorry to hear that. Those tanning lotions/solutions can be a bit hit and miss sometimes can't they? Not that I'd know because I'm naturally brown and don't need them. But I have ended up wiping the tanning towellettes over a good friend of mine...while she stood there in only her G-string...I was traumatised for days afterwards! lol
i've never dared do a fake tan, i'm scared i'll come out orange and have to take the week off work...
pale is interesting, at least thats what i keep telling myself...
:0)
hi tammi! sorry i haven't been stopping by lately. *hugs* I've been working out in the yard, so i am getting tan without even trying ( or rather, while trying NOT to..LOL) Anyway, it's funny coz my maiden name is Tan and when I see Tanning salons, i always joke with david that they're producing my clones..heheh
Lisa-you are so funny!traumatised.LOL How funny.
I am such a secret hater of you year-round natural tanned people when some of us struggle to get there and maintain it.Your so lucky!
Magpie-ya think it's considered a fake tan?I mean...it's in a tanning bed/or stand-up bed,and outside when the sun shines enough.The sizzle/tingle with a touch of bronzer helps fry the tan on you though.OUCH!!
Letti-Always so nice to hear from you.I never know when I need a doctor somedays,so I keep you on hand,cuz your advice is free.(just kiddin')You ARE a great doctor,no doubt.Always love hearing from you and looking at your blog w/ lots of cool stuff all over it.I must admit,I secretly steal your cute pics sometimes.But if I put it on my blog,I'll surely get caught being a copy-catter...LOL...so I have alot of really cute stuff in My Pics and My Documents.(thanx,btw) :-}
I could never figure this one out. Years ago I won 2 weeks of free tanning from a radio station... So I go, strip down to nothing and hope on the tanning bed. After two weeks of this I have a great tan all over EXCEPT my butt. Two big white marks. I could never figure it out and I never asked anyone's thoughts but have always wondered why... everything else came out nice and healthy looking! lol
It's a well-known fact that Lord Genocyde doesn't do tans...why? Well take the acute photosensitivity into play.
Remember those movies where the vampire gets exposed to daylight, becomes a flambe' and then he's nothing but the ash that we'll have to smoke off of Keith Richards just to get a good buzz because he did all the drugs? Well, I blister like that. No lie.
Shoulda seen me when that PPD test came up positive. That's what they use to test you for tuberculosis and they put me on Isoniazid for six months...it's better known as INH for short. Well this shit made me really bitter enemies with the sun and that tanning lotion...no way. I blister.
I'm a pale bastard and I'm proud of it. I worked hard to get this moon tan thank you and call it what you will, I don't like getting sunburnt which happens easily. I look like a bloody reptile when that happens.
Sometimes, it's just worth staying indoors.
Tammi, next time ya want to tan, take it easy hun, Winter just ended and you don't have to cover up all the time. Do it the natural way....little bits at a time.
Sure, I look like I never fraggin age but yanno what? At least I don't have to worry about scaling at times...though I'm gonna have to get used to the idea of wearing a ballcap again.
I've had my eye on an AC/DC ballcap...that should stir up the local townsfolk Muahahahahaha!
DEATHCULT ARMAGEDDON!!!!
(editor's note: Sorry about that last bit, he saw it on a Dimmu Borgir album and now uses it as his Cultural Terrorism Battlecry. Though we in the Internal Affairs Division have not been able to stop him, we figure it beats the old "SPOOOOOOOOOOOOOON!" battlecry he ripped off The Tick)
BTW, I'mma give you some time to catch up before I post anything other than a playlist to my blog....I've had a lot on my mind lately and when I hold it in...well...things happen...nasty, terrible things.
Since they cut theat skin cancer out of my arm, I'm getting my "tan in a can". Found some stuff that works really well...not orangey at all.
Just be careful with your skin...it's tough when they have to start cutting on you!
I have some good friends who love, love, love the beach and laying out to tan and all that. They have the genetics of royalty, but even so, after all these years whenever I see them again I can't help noticing the lines around their eyes and on their foreheads that never were there before. They look great with their perfect skin and bronze tans, but it's catching up to them in their faces.
Tammi, I'm sorry I gave Houston a hard time, I forgot, you live in Texas and might actually be a big fan of Houston..
I always covered my face with a dark towel- great for my skin but a little mismatched, lol!
Lost a bit of tan darn it...thanx to the hospital stay.
Fish.O.B.-Houston has it's advantages and disadvantages.I'm used to the smell of the chemical plants,but visitors find it apalling.lolAnd yes,I grew up back and forth from Tyler to Houston all my life.Your opionion is always valid in my books! :-}
brighton-I'm starting to do the same,as I don't want to age any faster than I already am.LOL....UuuGH!
Memphis Steve-I TOTALLY agree.The reason I am backing off the face,is because I see exactly what you see on some people I've known a while.Plus how people like my aunts that used to have such smoooth skin,and now they have leathery faces sorta.Both admit it was the sun.
Stacy-O.M.G.,what a bummer! That puts a damper on things somewhat.I do fear skin cancer.Ya think the sun caused it?Your so pretty and have such a nice natural tan,you probably never needed 10 minutes of sun!lol
Denny-if I could stop laughing long enough to type,I'd try and figure that out.Matter-of-fact,I don't even know why your poor booty got missed.ha ha
