How can I get the perfect sun-safe tan?

How can I get a nice tan without damaging my skin?

 

I hate to break it to ya, girlie, but the only safe tan is a fake tan. “Real” tanning, whether you get it while sitting in the sun or lying in a tanning bed, damages your skin even if you slather on the sunscreen. That can cause bad burns, wrinkles, sun spots and even cancer. Who wants that? Not us!

 

To get a healthy, sun-kissed glow, try using bronzer during the early spring months and a sunless tanning lotion as summer creeps closer. The Jergens Natural Glow line is our top product pick, and comes in a variety of formulas depending upon your skin tone. 

 

One more thing before I sign off: To keep your skin fresh and young, you should always wear sunscreen on your face and body. Even if it’s cloudy, your skin can still be damaged by UV rays sneaking through the atmosphere. And from one porcelain princess to all the others out there: Pale is pretty! Embrace your skin tone, sweeties.

What are some things I can say to the guy i like while we are texting? Thanks hun!Smile

 

Hey girlie! Just talk about whatever comes up! Ask him about his day, fun things he's done lately, etc. If you have good chemistry, the conversation will flow very easily.

My legs are REALLY dry! I put lotion on them twice a day! it looks like under my skin is dry! is there ANYTHING i can do to have pretty moisterized legs? Thanks inn advance!Smile

 

Hey chica! Make sure you're not using a blunt razor. Also make sure you're drinking enough water--it's crucial for healthy skin! If the problem persists, see a dermatologist for tips. Good luck!

The country club in my neighborhood has a pool and everyone goes there. The "big thing" is to be able to do a dive. If you can do a dive its so lame! I can dive really well. My problem is that my bikini bottom wants to come off when i dive!! Is there anyhing I can do? Please help! Do you know of any cute bikini that hold tight around the butt? (i dont have much to hold it!) thanks bunches!Smile

 

Hey chica! Unfortunately, bikinis are not the suits for babes who love diving! It may be a little easier if you go for bikini bottoms that don't tie on the sides and that have thicker straps, but a one piece is your best bet for diving.

oh my gosh. my lips hurt SOO bad. like, really sore. its from having chapped lips and peeling the skin off. it hurts sooo bad. i am putting burt's bees lip balm on but it hurts even from the touch of it! what can I do to get my lips better. it hurts to move them.. thanks!

Bonjour chicky! The most important thing to do to prevent chapped lips to keep yourself from licking them. Saliva can break down a lot of the thin tissue that makes up your lips hence why they become so easy to peel off. So don't lick your lips. Doing that and continuing with the lip balm should help your lips recover in no time

Take the stairs more than once. When you’re at home, run up and down the stairs three or four times before heading to your room. It’s a sneaky way to stay active.
