Well, I love being tan, for some people, being tan does not improve their looks that much...for me it does tremendously, the darker I look, the better.
I tan 3x a week for an average of about 12 minutes per session, which keeps me moderately dark, but not dark as I want to be. My stomach and legs are always dark but the most important part, my face, tans the hardest.
Yesterday, after doing some research, I decided to purchase a bottle of Neutrogena Sunless Tanning Foam, recommended by a few beauty sites.
So, last night, I applied it on my face, showered, slathered it on. It was late, and you need to leave it on for at least an hour, so I went to bed, skipping meal number 5, than woke up at about 530 AM during which I had a brief conversation with triple V and checked myself out in the mirror, I didn't have my contacts in but I looked ok from what I could see, so I washed my face, and went back to sleep.
Then I woke up this morning, and checked myself out..I am not overally pleased with the results but not totally dissapointed either. I made some mistakes on the application, I shoudl have shaved first as the color collected more around my moustache area.
It looks good and it looks bad...up close, within about 2 feet it looks kind of crappy, but far away it looks good. I considered trying a canthaxanthin product from Gibraltarproducts.com , as I have read it does not turn you orange, but the FDA has supposedly stated that those products are dangerous due to the deposits left in your retina, which is pretty scary sounding.
I am going to tan tonight in a tanning bed, I was fairly pale before I did this so we'll see how it looks after that.
Anyone else who has used a good sunless tanning product that worked well for their face I'd be glad to hear what it was.
