Is there a safe way to tan?

the company is epitan, they are currently testing out of brisbane...they used to test out of adelaide, and at the time were having injection site issues (since resolved, apparently)

im thinking about participating in the phase 3 trial, shouldnt be too long.

i tan easily already, but id love to do it without sun..

get a good lotion and NEVER burn.... build up slowly... also mystic tan booths have several settings do you can gradually build up and yes it does look good now and not orange like other fake tan stuff.

also see a dermatologist at least once a year or more to see if any moles or freckles change color.

We have 20 minute beds here...and I'd suggest going for 3 minutes 4x a week the first week and adding 2 minutes per session per week and see what the effects are. Just try not to burn, ever.

Drink lots of water and keep your skin hydrated. It can take up to 2 weeks to fully hydrate your skin once it is dehydrated. If you have more hydrated skin...you are less likely to burn in the first place.

But is there still a danger even if I don't burn?

Stress less, bro. You gotta die of something.

Yes, there is.

If you don't want to worry about skin cancer, then you need to stay out of the sun (& tanning beds) altogether. Burning ofcourse is worse than tanning, but tanning is still increasing your chances, especially if there's a family history, you're fair-skinned, and have burned in the past.

Yep, but I'd rather live past 40.

Yep....clothed.

the key is moderation. start off slow and build up a base and make sure you don't burn.
