I agreeee. Tho I also agree with Puff. It's probably something that should be done anyway but it is hard to wake up to the rain and cloud and think "oh gotta put my sunscreen on!" My parents ot a bit burnt because they didn't wear any a few weeks ago and it wasnt that warm or sunny. I use 30 mostly when I'm away on holiday. _________________

| | Ohhh yeah I totally wear it when i'm on holiday. One of the most stupid things i've ever done is when I went to Florida (i was like 16) and never put any on because I "wanted a tan". Needless to say I got very burnt and was in pain for the last few days of my holiday. |

| I'm pale as snow, and I love it. Natural tans are gorgeous too, but fake ones gross me out. And I love it when girls who shouldn't tan tan, and get red instead of dark. |

| I tan...a little too easily. And I kinda like wearing foundation that matches. So I wear sunscreen! Besides, I can always get spray tanner or something...
Speaking of that. I have seen BAD spray tans. Court got one for homecoming [don't really see why, it was dark the whole time so no one really noticed], but her hands were streaky for days. I prefer natural tans...or at least, fake ones that look natural.  _________________

| Pale skin can show off your flaws, tan skin hides it a bit better (I tan very easy as well, but I'm like never outside and live in New Zealand so... sun is THE ENEMY down here). Having to deal with so many different skin types on almost a daily basis I can say this is almost always the case.
If you tan super easy and don't burn often, then you could argue that whatever your 'plateau' colour is (where it takes a lot of work for you to tan darker) is your natural colour. I can understand why people do tan but when they do it excessively... yuck. Plus, like I said the sun is THE ENEMY. Heh.
What a long ramble that came from 'tan skin hides flaws better'. Just 'cause the paler you are the more redness will show. Yep.  _________________ In the game of thrones you win or you die.

Haha, I'm about the same. I like my pale skin better than my tan because I think it looks better with my features. I like looking 'different' I guess.

| I really try to avoid tanning. I like being quite pale. Although I'm stuck because I like being pale and interesting but in summer I'd quite like to be a little tan with my legs and stuff, for wearing skirts...but I do love being quite pale. _________________

| I'm really pale too and I don't tan. In summer everybody asks me if I'm sick or something. When I go outside I always have to use spf because I burn so fast _________________ I was lying in bed last night looking at the stars, the clear sky and the endless horizon, and while I was lost in that moment of tranquillity I thought to myself ...where the fuck is my roof?! |

| Ahaha, dude, I'm just like Jenn. I'll tan, and by the end of summer, I could be two shades darker than usual. Then I won't be my normal skin colour until the end of winter. Wtf, pointless. _________________
