Self Tanner for the Pale.

Texas is hot and sunny. All you need to do to get a tan is step outside for about 10 minutes. I have lived here all my life and summer to me is lying out in the sun and baking. This, of course, is bad bad bad! My family wears sunscreen, the higher the number the better. But then we all are so pale we glow in the dark. I know that I personally seem to radiate light from my normal skin.
My daughter, Annalise, and I decided to get some self tanner this year. We tried a different brand a few years ago and both turned a several unattractive shades of streaky orange.
I picked the Banana Boat Everyday Glow SunDial Self-Tanning Moisturizer because it had the coolest container of all the tanners up at the Walgreens, and that is how shallow I am. It has a dial on the top so you can pick the exact color you would like to be. I chose a mid range while Annalise decided to go Caribbean bronze.
I an happy to report that it worked great! You rub it on your skin and wait a few hours for the color to develop. If it isn't what you want, add more. If you are at the right color, you have a few days before you have to reapply. It isn't slimy, it feels like lotion and smoothed right into my skin. Smelled nice too. Neither of us ended up orange and best of all, no sun damage!
