canned tan?

[hollister_]

I don't know what to call it, I think it's spray tan, but I was in walmart or somewhere the other day and I saw a spray that you put all over your body and it makes you more tan!
does anyone use them?
if so...
does it look fake?
can you tan through it or is it like a coat so sun won't get through? because I need to be tan for prom, so I want a fake tan but I want to get tanner under that. if that makes sense!
please reply to this, thaaankss

I wouldn't trust a 'canned tan' from Walmart that you apply yourself. Well personally I wouldn't. If you want some sort of fake tan, at least get a spray tan professionally. It'll look more real and you probably won't miss any spots like you might when using the canned tan manually.

Yep, it's a spray tan. You can tell the difference between it and a real tan, it gives the person an orange like tint most of the time. since the spray tan can easily be messed up and it'd make you look weird if you mess up. So be very careful if you do. And as for tanning underneath of it, I'm sure you can. It's just like a cover up, so I don't see why it wouldn't work.

would a professional spray tan look orange-y too?

It depends on the tone you get. My friend literally got one last night and her skin tone is perfect. Not too orange or anything.

hmmmmm....
was it expensive?

[skinny_white_boy]

Whatever you do, don't get the same tone as Snooki xD
Hers has that orange-ish tint if you wanna see an example.

haha
whenever I tan, I call it getting my snook on :D
I REALLY hope I don't get as orange as snooki, I would die and not go to prom!

[skinny_white_boy]

Hahaha nice!
If your going to get a canned tan or professional spray tan then your best time would be the day before or of prom so it wouldn't look old or start to smear. Then you pretty much wasted your money

hmm well it is on a saturday this year.....
what if it comes out NOT cute!

[skinny_white_boy]

Hmm well that's when you either deal with it and hope no one notices or hop in the shower and scrub like there's no tomorrow.

if u use it wrong u turn oarnge

If you have time why don't you just sit in the sun and get a real tan? If your prom is too close then i guess get it professionally done but with a real tan you won't have the orange-y tone, but idk maybe you do, i'm already tan so i don't know :P

[bhoyS]

better off with spray tan tbh: I had one the other day and always looks fabulous unlike the canned stuff which is easy to get wrong or make a mess of.

[hollister_]

oh shame. well we've had rain all week and plan on getting it until sunday and prom is next saturday. and I have a job and school so not much free time : /

[SuperSuraj]

Oh.... well then yeah tanning in the rain is kinda hard haha. Then i would suggest a professional spray tan, but nothing too dark i think with your skin and hair color something light but noticeable would look good, but something dark would be too obvious.

[hollister_]

well my hair is really dark now,
like selena gomez dark

[SuperSuraj]

hmmmm I still don't think you should go much darker than me I guess cause at the moment our hair color is the same sorta, wait what color contacts are you going to wear? or are you going with your natural eye color (which i want btw) lol

[hollister_]

hehe I'll either buy BRIGHT blue ones or jsut go natural [which you can have]

[SuperSuraj]

natural would still look good with a tan and dark hair, but bright blue would be pretty amazing you should post pictures so i can see haha

NEW QUESTION!
is there anything I should do before going to get a spray tan?

[Charleigh]

I used one not so long ago. It makes you look tanned but you can tell its fake.
I DONT recommend it.

[hollister_]

did you do it yourself or get it done at a tanning place?

[IMonfire]

Heavens! Let's switch the colour of our skins. LOL. I'm naturally tan and I want my skin to be a little bit fairer (like yours). I even use some whitening products to achieve such skin. LOL

trade. with. me.
