Sunbeds...
I'm not a tanned lass but after seeing all the sun over the weekend I thought I'd try a few minutes on a sunbed. When I asked the woman she said to me, Just go on for six minutes. I thought she was taking the p**s out of me. SIX MINUTES! How short is that. Anyway on I went and when I got off i didn't feel any different.
That was this afternoon. Now I look like a bloody lobster just been cooked. Can't believe the difference six minutes has made. Why is it I burn so much yet some people go on everyday and just tan? |

Re: Sunbeds...
Sunbeds are a highly speeded up version of "tanning"(for which read "cooking yourself under sunlight").If the sun affect you badly then a sunbed will do only more so. Did you use any cream/lotion/spray as you would have done if sunbathing outdoors? Remember we are advised to use at least SF15 at first. Have you seen the Boots ads?
Awful what appened to your friend Mick. Anyone with moles should be careful of the sun and sunbeds. Both can cause skin cancer. |

When there is a shortagen of real sun I'm off for 9 minutes of sun shower fantasy that I'm led on a Spanish beach, only thing is there's no sexy Spanish waiter to bring me a cold beer in the tanning shops :( ! |
Re: Sunbeds...
I haven't been on a sunbed for years but I do know that they are so powerful now that a few minutes is enough. I am fair skinned and I will tan but only with care. If I burn I've had it. You do need to wear some kind of protective cream on sunbeds now. They tend to do their own creams at tanning shops as they used to reckon that using normal SPF doesn't protect on a sunbed or may cause rashes.. and I reckon it's so that they can charge you an extra quid for the cream..:D
I would keep off the sunbed Steph. It's not worth looking like a lobster in order to try to get a tan. I would rather be pale and interesting than brown and wrinkly...:) |
Re: Sunbeds...
they would have to pay me to use a sunbed.........If I wanted to look tanned for a special occasion then I would have one of those spray on jobs done.......no fried and peeling skin after one of those.
