I read the complaint about people who bake themselves in the sun and all I could think of were those people who do not bake themselves in the sun and who, instead, simply paint themselves as if the had baked themselves in the sun.
I’m talking about spray-on or rub-on tanning creams mostly sold and marketed with catchy titles like “Sunless Tan” or “Self Tanners”. How about “Makes You Look Like You Rubbed Dog Sh*t All Over Yourself Tan”? Yeah, that’ll sell.
Although I personally think there’s nothing wrong with having fun in the sun and getting a little color every now and then, I can respect you for not baking yourself. I just feel sorry for you when you decide to rub or spray… what amounts to paint, all over your body so you can look like you baked yourself.
I feel sorry for you because I just don’t think you know how bad it looks. Case in point - the poor lady I’ve seen for years who works at a local pharmacy. She’s the sweetest thing in the world. She looks like the modern version of Al Jolson, but she’s the sweetest thing in the world.
Look at your fingers after you do this. They look like you stuck your fingers in a pile of baby crap and swirled them around. You can’t hide it. We know. We can tell.
So then you move on to the spray-on tan. We’ve got you figured out on that one too. You see, unless you are sprayed in a spray tent like the ones they use to paint cars, you’re not going to get every nook and cranny. We know. We can tell.
My biggest complaint about your tanning creams is that you go through all this effort to colorize yourself and you just can’t get it right. Quit going overboard with it or just stop it altogether. I’m fine with your natural color, why aren’t you?

I have been using self tanning products for a long time and it takes a lot of practice to get it right. I know all about the hands and feet looking like you just stepped in dog doo;you forgot to mention around the underarms where it looks like you haven’t washed in months, so you see I know all about it. I have found that the moisturizer with the tanning lotion in it works the best. It takes longer to get a tan but it looks more natural. I will continue to use the self tanners because I have pretty much mastered it now. By the way, forget using the sprays at the tanning booth. They work somewhat like a car wash does but that’s another story. September is just around the corner and I will be going back to my natural color.
Self-tanning products are CRAP… and look just like dog SH*T!!! I don’t care what you use, it all looks the same. Isn’t part of having “a little color” or “a super tan” the fun you have at the beach, pool or wherever you get it, while you get it?! I mean, it’s kind of like a short-lasting reminder or souvenir of a great day at the beach with your family or friends, or a vacation. I just don’t understand why someone would feel so compelled to change their skin color that they’d rub artificial dyes (which are probably just as harmful to the human body as the sun) into their skin. I’ll be the first to admit that I used a tanning cream when i was a junior in igh school.. AND DID I END UP LOOKING LIKE A FREAKIN IDIOT! I even knew I looked bad!
If u stoppped using it, why do u care if other ppl are? why not just laugh at them and leave it at that? Why u hatin?
