Default Sunless Tanning

Has anyone tried this? I'm thinking about going and getting it done but im scared that I will turn orange hahaha. I have a friend that did it a few years ago and she turned orange but she is really pale and was thinking it may be a little different for me.

So who has done this or do you know anyone who has done this????

Until you skin gets used to it you will turn an oranish gold color for just a couple of days. Once your skin gets accustomed to it you'll just turn a goldish color for a few hours and then tan.

Allison, after doing it for a month you will really like the results. Turns into a dark tan almost instantly.

Ok well here is my delima......I was just contacted by a photgrapher that wants me to do some protfolio shots for him on Thursday in Waco and this weekend in Plano. I have not tanned (in a tanning bed) in probably a year, im not pale or light but I just wanted something to add a little more color and some what fast before Thursday.

SoI guess this is out of the question. Anyone have any other tricks .

I always tan before a vacation, I would do what DD said maybe every day for 10 minutes. I tried the spray tan and I did not turn orange but wanted the UV protection and it has none.
