i want brown legs

[tamirra]

Im going to Cyprus in September and i want to get brown legs,everywhere else goes brown but not the legs, so can anyone help me with what is the best sun tan lotion to buy that will help me get some tan on the legs, other than that fake stuff. Thanks.

I used nivea this year as I have the same problem and it worked a treat, started at factor 25 and dropped done to 2 the last few days.

I have started using Dove moisturiser, it slowly builds up a lovely tan but first you must defuzz, then use a normal moisturiser. Let that soak in then use Dove. I have found it does not streak and blends really well. Good luck.

Sorry tamirra, got ahead of myself. See you didn't want fake. Like sandrajo I used Nivea when I sunbathed outside.

I never tanned - just burned, peeled and reverted to white.

A few years ago I was due to go to Spain and had just two sunbed sessions before hand.

I didn't look any different. Until the day after I arrived in Spain. Beautiful tan, no burning.

I would never advocate regular use of the sunbed, but two or three sessions before your holiday could save you from burning and help you tan.

Thankyou i will try the nivea then, but i always thought oil was best, but am i wrong? x

all i can advise is dont apply it using a plastic bag and wooden spoon..... even if u r really, really, really bored ... :o(

oh and as for tanning oil i always use 'hawaiian tropic' and thats what i'll be using when i go on holiday in 8 days!!

You can buy it from Boots, Superdrugs etc etc.

How long u in Cyprus for?

[tamirra]

Hope you have a great time there, thats one place ive never been too, im only going to Cyprus for a week cos we have a lot of building work to be done at our house, but we would have liked to stay longer, my hubby is a cypriott so we also visit his family too, have you ever been to Turkey? my son of 17 is going there with 9 mates on Monday, he is going to Marmaris. xxx

[nat_84]

Never been there but one of my friends is Turkish....

Turkey is supposed to be beautiful and extremely hot - i'd love to visit!

Ive been to Cyprus - but when i was much younger about (13), stayed in a friends apartment in Larnaca.

Since returned to Ayia Napa - which wasn't so innocent......;oP
