OK COCO,

Last Post on the Subject. Here ya go - INSTANT TAN!!! Just like the Pros - and you don't even have to spend second in the booth or out in the sun. So nobody has to worry about your skin, you can say, "it's all done electronically"!

P.S. My son is your exact age... blonde hair and blues eyes - can't tan (takes after his Mom) and he says your cute and you've got his vote!!! LOL!

Good luck. You do look great!

Catnapper....meeeeee too! I freaked when I went to CA and even though I had sun block on I still tanned. I ranted for like 3 days over that....lol.

I had a boss of mine she kept telling me I need to tan because I'd look healthier. I was like "Yeah, I'm toasting my skin, and I'm sure I'll look real healthy when I have splotches all over me, or skin cancer." She left me alone after that....lol. I guess to each his own. I just learned when I was young the damaging effects, and I often got praised for my skin. People always said I looked like a little porcilin doll. So I took it I looked classic, and it stuck with me ever since. Being more careful about it does help, but it's still causing damage.

I think you look great.... just like me when I was 17.

Seriously, a nice tan does make you look better, but there’s no doubt it’s bad for your skin if you overdo it. A friend of mine did the tanning thing too, back in the eigthies, she looked gorgeous, but when I saw her a few years later, her skin was kind of leathery and brownish/grey - not very flattering.

Funny, back in the 20ties - yeah, OK I wasn’t around then, but I know it was high fashion to be a pale as possible. The reason was that pale women “sent the message” to others that they didn’t have to work in the fields for a living.

Good luck on the competion!
