fake tan

Natasha, no question is silly, the answer to your question should include some comments however. I am not a doctor, nor am I a scientist; I am a person, a husband, a father, a grandfather, a friend, a fighter. There may not be any issue with applying a "fake spray tan", but why? Fake tans are a result of DHA and there seems to be no reason to worry about DHA. BUT what about the other chemicals in the bottle or can? You are going to breath this stuff, maybe you are going to get it in places you don't want me to see. Why?

Is the beautiful lady in your profile pic really you? If she is you why do you want to cheapen her. I will bet you that I can look at ten women and tell you wich ones have the fake tan 95% of the time. Do you think people are going to say "Wow, check out Natasha, what a great tan" or, maybe, "Natasha is a beautiful person, but what is she thinking with a fake tan like that"?

I think that tanning in any form is addicting. You know that person you see at the pool, the one that's 45 but looks like 70. Wrinkles, sagging skin, skin that looks like an old leather coat. If you start down the road witha bottle tan, will you switch over to a tanning salon?

Come on, Natasha, you are better than that…your healthy glow comes from within, from your loving heart, from your vivacious personality, not from a bottle.

Thinking good things about you, Wilfred

For another view on Wilfred's reply, I was at a Melanoma Symposium yesterday at the Yale Cancer Center.  During one of the Q&A sessions, this very question was asked.  The dematologist replied that there is no evidence to suggest that there is any skin danger from spray-on tans.

Whether or not you chose to spray tan is a matter of personal choice. But do you really want to look like those girls on Jerseylicious? Their tans all look fake. 

Your profile picture is gorgeous. And, your natural coloring looks darker than any tan I've ever had…LOL. If you head to the beach, you'll see a number of pale people and they don't look out of place — not like they used to back in the 70's.

If you really want a healthy glow, just head to your local make up counter and buy some bronzer to apply to your cheeks.

I'm 25, stage III malignant melanoma, and I understand WHY you would want to get a spray tan. However, I encourage you to embrace your own glow. For me, I have 2 goals in regards to melanoma. 1) Beat it. 2) Tell the world that melanoma is not "just" skin cancer. If I were to go for a spray tan, I feel like that would go against everything I'm preaching. Why not feel beautiful in your own skin? I sure do. 🙂

Hope you reconsider! Either way, I'm sure you'll be beautiful.
