14. Hi girls, let me try to shed some light on some of your comments: First, we are all born with different skin tones. So if we're born with tan skin, that in itself is ok but to try and achieve tan skin if we're more fair-skinned, thru SUN bathing or tanning beds, then that is UNhealthy. Take Raya Mananquil for example. She avoids the sun religiously but she has a medium-dark skin tone, naturally. As for rashes, like with any product, best to patch test on your wrist for a few hours. That's what store testers are for. Sometimes, it's an initial reaction then after more than one use, your skin adjusts to it. It's really a case to case basis. Next, spray tanners can be tricky in hard to reach areas but with a friend's help or patience, you can get it right- from personal experience :-) Lastly, ModelCo is world-renowned for its vast range of self-tanners which are DHA-based (non-toxic and made from sugar cane). Drop by Beauty Bar and you can test their spray, mousse, lotion and sponge applications. The newest one: Sun SPonge, think of it as like a shoes shine but bigger version for the skin. But my best advice, always exfoliate before any tanning process to avoid uneven application. Always moisturize to help your tan last longer to prevent dead skin from flaking off right away. Enjoy!

13. I've never done self-tanning but this is helpful as I am thinking of doing this soon. I don't tan that much under the sun but I tan nicely and I hope it's the same when I do self-tanning :)
