Get a Tan Without Using Products

Template:StubThis article will show you how to get a sexy summer tan without having to buy any oil,or tanning products.

Steps

Eat lots of fruits and veggies and take a multivitamin daily. Not only will this make you healthier, but you will actually tan better.
The day before you decide to seriously tan, take a bubble bath and exfoliate to get your skin super clean and soft. Apply a lot of lotion after you get out.
Before you go to lay out, drink a glass of water, put on your bikini (or any swimsuit) for girls, tie your hair up and make sure you won't get too hot.
- For optimal results, tan between 10 AM and 3 PM.
Start tanning. Pick a good chair that goes flat, so your legs can tan too. Apply a sunscreen of at least SPF 25. You will still tan through the sunscreen! It is really important to do this,so you don't risk skin cancer and premature aging.
Lay out under the sun for 15 minute intervals if you're pale,taking 10 minute breaks in between. Each day you can increase the time by 5 minutes.
Continue the vitamins, take care of your skin and eat nutritious foods and you should be tanner in about 2 weeks! As always,be safe.

Drink tons of water!
remember,a tan isn't everything. Know your limits,if you feel sick, dizzy or nauseous take a break and rehydrate yourself.
Tan between 10 am -3 pm when the sun shines the most.
If you tan by the pool jump in when you start to feel hot to cool yourself down then dry yourself off and continue to tan.
If it's really hot out, be careful.
Always wear the sunscreen.
You should tan when it's really sunny (obviously) or you won't get the best results.
Natural tanning takes longer, but it's a lot better than tanning beds, which can irritate and burn your skin.

Hydrate yourself because you can get heatstroke,or get very dehydrated.
Don't tan every single day over a long period of time, because you could get skin cancer, wrinkles, age spots, and worst of all... Melanoma.
Do not tan between 3 & 4, as this is peak time, and even with sunscreen on, there is still a chance you could still burn.
