I don't want to be tan!


I get really, really dark in the sun and I don't want to be to tan. Is there any way to not tan when you’re in the sun?


Unfortunately, there’s no way to guarantee that your skin won’t tan at all when you’re out in the sun. However, wearing heavy-duty sunscreen—think SPF over 30—and reapplying as directed in addition to wearing protective gear—big floppy hat and sunglasses at bare minimum—will put you well on your way to protecting your natural skin color.


If you’re heading to the beach or the pool, try to spend at least part of the time under an umbrella to protect your skin. Out in full sun? Choose a long, breezy cover-up with sleeves.


Good luck, girlie, and have a fab summer!
