Tanning lotion vs. sunscreen?

I'm already somewhat tan. I usually use sunscreen when I'm at the pool or at the beach. I see people using this tanning lotion/oil that they're spraying on. Does that give you a better tan? Does that stuff have sunscreen in it(some sort of SPF)? Anyone out there use this stuff? Can you sunburn easily from it?

tanning oil comes with either NO spf, or 2-14 i believe. if you read the bottle it'll tell you. they claim to enhance the tan and make it appear "more bronze" and whatnot. If you're going to be outside a while, I suggest you get one with at least SPF 4 or more.

you burn easily from it. it does have spf but only like spf 8 which is nothing. i put sun screen then tanning oil over it.... try that if you want
Reply:DONT USE TANNING OILS! They actually make sun exposure worse for your skin not matter what their spf is. Look for sunscreen with Uva and Uvb protection and if you want to get tan, use a daily mostureizer with a hint a color, like Jergens Natural Glow.
Reply:No, tanning oil has absolutley no SPF's in it. It actually makes your hair more prone to sunburns and other sun related problems. I'd use tanning oil in combination with sunscreen.
Reply:Forget the tanning lotion !


SUNSCREEN %26gt; to protect from skin cancer !
