Yes, I know. However, as someone who grew up in ALASKA and now only BURNS in Seattle summers, I would like to do what I can to avoid it for once. So if that means going tanning 5 times and not burning at all for once- I'll take it. And as someone who is outside a LOT during the summer (and yes I wear tons of sunscreen) it makes a big difference.

I've used them and never liked them- and my goal isn't necessarily to get a dark tan- it's just to avoid burning for once in my life.

Went and bought a package last night and was really happy with their service. I asked a million questions and she was really great about answering all of them. Thanks for the suggestion!

I haven't in nearly ten years, back when I cared about that crap.

However- I have very Alaskan skin, which means that I BURN in Seattle summers, no matter how careful I am. I would like to not fry my skin for once. That is why. I'm not trying to look like a Barbie.

Sweet, buy me a ticket?

I'm trying to do the same thing, in the hopes that my body will adjust to it. Every time I think that it's getting better- I'm wrong. My period lasts at least a week and a half now as well.

You may do perfectly well with it, though. It's so hard to say. I really hope that my body adjusts, as I don't want to use hormonal birth control anymore if I can help it.

The downvotes are reminding me of hotornot! Haters.

I'm already predominantly vegan. Sweat still smells like sweat, even if it doesn't smell like meaty sweat.

Not an option, or else I already would have. I only have this problem because the club near my office already closed.
