What do you prefer......?

[R1Geezer]

One for the lads really but this also may be of interest to you girls out there. Related to the tanning question below, what do you prefer? Unatural colour? ie acquired by laying in the sun or by some other means or do you prefer natural skin colour? I prefer the natural colour myself, especially lily whit soft skin, I find tanned b1rds a bit of a turn off especially when there's no way it's their real skin colour. Now natural tanned colour, ie the real colour of the person that's fine but when you've got some platinum blond bimbo who's as brown as doggy do do, sorry girls it aint pretty! If you want a piece of the Geezer it has to be natural!

you are a fussy one geezer ;D

[Huderon]

Can't say I have any preference because as far as I'm concerned looks are a bonus. I'd rather be with a homely lass who is interesteing and knows how to use her brain than a vacuous stunner.

i have dark skin, dark hair naturally, i use factor 30 in the sun as skin cancer is a killer. Girls should ( in this ocassion only) fake it! 0)

i am like a porcelian doll as white as a sheet with bright light blonde hair i tried a fake tan once and just looked dirty although i would love a bit more colour as i often look unwell.

i've tried natural tanning but simply burn, peel then go white again but i am not prepared to go on a sunbed or any of these new fade treatments.

i think it's boring when every1 looks the same.

and i always think i would have been perfect 100 yrs ago when woman wanted to be whiter than white and stayed out of the sun and bleached their skin lol

So long as there is no hint of 'David Dickenson Orange' I don't care...

I'm naturally pale and am quite happy to stay that way :) I was maybe too pale when I was younger, apparantly people used to come up and ask my mum if I was ok lol :) but much prefer it.

I've seen what tanning a lot has done to some people's skin, one former colleague used to come in regularly burnt as she would spend so long on the sunbeds and another friend's skin went all horribly dry and peeling she used them so much.

I know someone now much older than me who has already had skin cancer twice which kind of brings the possibility home.

I remember someone who used to smother herself on baby oil so she literally used to fry in the sun, I hate to imagine what her skin is like now.

It annoys me when I go and try foundations and such on on department stores as they always try to make me look orange!

As a girl I think girls look far nicer with untanned skin. Pale skin, if you have it, and a rosy glow is so much healthier than tan- be it painted on or real. Fake tan looks so chavvy, in my opinon and real tan does untold damage to your skin. It's just not worth it.

A picture to make my point!

[Velvetee]

A tan does look nice, unfortunately far too many people just take it too far. Everyone wants to look as Orange as Katie Price. People just need to get the right balance and go for the lighter shade of St Tropez..

Fortunately, I don't need to do all this rubbish, because I already have a lovely tan, was born with it infact.

[LoftyLottie]

Natural all the time (although those moisturisers with a little bit of colour can make you look a bit healthier)

It's about time people realised they look far more attractive with their natural colour.

[Panic Button]

You all look the same with the lights off
