2. The sad thing is if they only spend a few more dollars, they could buy
a fake tanner that doesn't make them orange.

4. I'm going to butt in...
Skin cancer is worse, trust me. Fake bake is affordable and oh so nice. Madonna even uses it! No, not that one the aging rock star. :P

5. No doubt about the Big C. So the orange look is sprayed on? I thought it
was tanning bed.

6. Yep it's the cheap spray stuff
Tanning bed is a real tan with all the side effects.

7. Whatever makes someone feels good... is good. Just saying that visually,
its fine line between a healthy glow and the hue of a carrot. I guess the same applies for hair coloring techniques. It's all in the application.

8. There are good "in a bottle tans"
It's only the really cheap ones that make a person look like a carrot. :)

I'm Italian so the least little sun and I'm turning brown, even I have to say the bottle color from a good product looks really good.

12. You didnt see them? Maybe not pop ups but that other kind that
covers part of the screen... then you have to click "close window" to get rid of it.

14. Oh yes, about skin cancer.
A warm thankyou to the many industrialist scumbags who put a big hole in the ozone layer near me.

Thanks.

Lots.

(Not you Lone_Star_Dem, as I have good information that says you are not, in fact a scumbag, and you also don't create holes in the ozone layer over antartica in spring.)

15. I thought that maybe those people's parents had their baby shoes
bronzed while the kids were still in them. :shrug:

Am I showing my age? Do people still have baby shoes bronzed?

18. Partially orange looks better on me...
than Casper the Ghost white so that I blend in with white backgrounds and frighten small children with the pallidness of my complexion.

Damn these Teutonic genes! I'm the color of yogurt!
