    do you really think that fake tan is attractive???or chartbusters tan for that matter?? i now that most of my mates prefer girls with natural beauty coz if your wearing make up and fake tan all the time you will never look great when you go out because you will look the same.
    also you are irish we are ment to be white like a milk bottle not tanned like a spaniard.
    personally i like tanned women but it has to be natural not fake.
    do people share the same opinion

    Back from holidays three weeks so I still have a nice little holiday colour, but if I'm wearing a skirt, sleeveless top, low cut top, etc I use a bit of the oul Sun Shimmer. I am not a fan of the Tangoed look- people actually ask me have I been away every time I wear fake tan because I've mastered putting it on really evenly, just the perfect amount, without streaking! Anybody want a tip or two???

    u see girls (including my gf) who put it on right and it looks great...then u see the few mingers tryin to keep up with their mate who came out the good lookin end of puberty and they look like they were dipped in ****e...so yeah its good when done right

    It's actually a clever ploy. Now by wearing glasses with an orange tint you can filter out all the idiots.

    Wow, that's HOT!
    All they need are those pencil-drawn eyebrows and those awful looking lip jobs.

    No, positive. I used to get looks when I started using it (I was inexperienced, I was using cheap ****e and it was streaky) and a guy friend used to ring me and sing the Oompa Loompa song down the phone to me and piss himself laughing. Now people just say "Gosh, your tan looks great!"


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,688 ✭✭✭grimloch


    Ah tbh that sort of consistency and non-blotchiness could rarely be achieved via fake tan.

    jesus you are so vain!!!! do you not think that when you reach 30 your skin will be in bits because of all the chemical ****e that is on your skin.
    oh ye oompa loompa that is exactly what a lot of the girls round my way look like im sure you know them.- in a real scumbag accent...
    'jusinte i failed me leavin cert, but im goin to beauty colledge soz i can train to put my make up on wrong'
    FACT 89% of beauticians hae failed their leaving cert.

    all the fellas should say clearly do they like FAKE tan. coz chances are if a girl wants to mislead you that much she has a fake personality borrowed off friends

    fake tan looks like ****


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 142 ✭✭r3boot


    me thinks there should be a poll.

    and yes fake tans are crap, however the real thing does look good on some girls.

    I really don't like fake tan. Since a tan is the sign that you have already damaged your skin from sun exposure, why strive to look like that?

    It would give the appearance that you can afford to go abroad alot I'm told.

    also you are irish we are ment to be white like a milk bottle not tanned like a spaniard.
    personally i like tanned women but it has to be natural not fake.

    THIS is why people put on fake tan. There is a perception that people with a tan are more attractive. The old story of differences being the difference.

    What would people prefer??

    a) a bad fake tan
    b) people cooking away in sunbeds.

    Also, all those nicely coloured Spainards get that colour from being out in the sun all day every day. Heard any of the ad's stating how bad the sun is for your skin??

    Fake tan can look awful, yes, but it has got to be safer for the individual's health over the sun.

    And, yes, fake tan does use chemicals but there is chemicals in near everything today.

    A.

    its just great waking up beside someone hungover who has just covered your sheets with makeup and fake tan, and looks 200 times worse cause their entire body is smeared with this ****, thus multiplying your hungover by 200.

    as shakespeare wonderfully put it:
    "god hath given you one face, and you create yourself another"


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,503 ✭✭✭✭jellie


    i am reaaally pale (with freckles.. woohoo..) but i tried fake tan once 4 a ball because id been told by so many ppl "you'll have to use fake tan".

    im not sure why i HAD to use it..

    but anyway i gave it a go. never again. it turned out ok for the night, but for like a week after your skin streaks and is funny colours and just looks dirty! especially around fingers & elbows and stuff.

    so now ive the best part of a bottle of st tropez if any1 wants to buy it..? cause i wont be using it again

    i doubt it
    a -the chemicals ARE going to have some bad effect on skin other than turning it orange.skin isnt designed to be painted, it wil block all the important glands eg sweat glands

    b- in a spray tan what happens when you inhale some of the stuff and dont say you cant because you will always inhale somthing that is being sprayed that close to you.unless your wearing a mask with i doubt the girls are wearing.

    apart from those reasons i will go for a girl who is natural as what you see is what you get.
    at this stage fake tan is so common that it makes the women fall into the same category FAKE.
    heres a list of the artificial/fake crap on most so called 'pretty' girls

    1- Hair
    2-Hair colour
    3-Nails
    4-Boobs
    5-Face
    6-Nose
    7-Eyebrows
    8-Personality
    9-Skin Tone

    jesus 9 and thats off the top of my head
    and women complain of men lying to them just to get sex!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    look if ur naturally pale (no matter how pale) do not, i repeat do not put on fake tan. It is the worst looking thing ever, ever! And if you're pale then your pale. And if you're attractive and pale then you're attractive. No need to look like an oompa loompa.

    Oh yeah and don't "burn yourself to a crisp" either. You know yerself what type of skin you have and that some skin just don't tan and isn't meant to, so don't force that either.

    My 2 sense
