Also in soapbox .
I love to have a tan , preferably real from a super duper, gloriously long holiday somewhere exotic But .................
usually is false tan I am sporting !!!! teehee!!!
My friend loves a tan too, but is wild for sunbeds and is constantly on them, tried telling her she will end up a scabby wrinkly old prune !!!!

Her latest fad she has since started talking about Is tanning pills???? they basically turn u brown / orange whatever ???? no sun , sounds a bit too good to be true ?anyone know of them ????? I know someone who mentioned melanotan stuff, u inject it into urself ???!!!! Think il stick to my bottle tan but just wondered what anyone thought , any experience ???

thanks guys xxxxx
 
my friend takes the tanning injections and (i hate to say it) she looks really good. having said that they haven't been cleared for use over here by doctors so who knows what the side effects potentially are

at least with sunbeds the risks are obvious

oooh really ???? Doesnt she have any side effects then at the moment ???? I had heard about it , my friend had a brcohure thing , saying these injections were teh latest thing , meant to make u look tanned, lose weight im sure it said too ??!!!!

Yes I know what u meant , u know what u could potentially be in for with sunbeds , They are said to be bringing the injections in soon as a pill form ????? i am not keen enough for tan to stab needle into myslef !!! happy with my tanning mousse!!

Spray tan is the best imo. I've had it done a couple of times over the winter months as i'm really pastey otherwise. Makes you feel a lot better with a bit of colour

Spray tans or any out of the bottle tans make you smell horrid though - its a really weird smell so i opt for baking myself under a sun bed - 10 minutes of relaxation while im laying there too!
 
i sunbed too..i know there are risks but i don't smoke and don't drink a lot and am failry healthy so its my one vice. go on a couple of times a week

oh, and i think my friend (the injecting one) sometimes feels sick after she's injected herself

i'm far too sqeemish to try it

The injections and pills are not regulated in any way in this country and several medical advisory bodies have warned against taking them as the long term effects are totally unknown and the products for sale in this country could contain absolutely anything.

Going on a sunbed once a week increases your chance of malignant skin cancer by 50%.

i'm sure most of us on here do at least one thing that will probably end our life prematurely.....riding anyone?
