    He wouldn't dare.

    After all it goes without saying as it is...

    I never wear fake tan. Think it looks dirty! If applied well then it can look ok but too much is just manky.
    I'm completely pale skinned and it would be nice to have a tan during the summer for example but hey,according to the magazines "porcelain chic" is in this summer! Wohoo!

    TBH, I find the streaks and splotches from a self-applied tan even more unattractive than the tangerine colour. Even a girl who's pretty good at doing fake-tan is going to look like a piece of streaky bacon because there are some spots you just can't reach, other's you can't see while you're applying it and (most commonly) areas that you just forget to cover. Combine that to the mess it makes of your hands and you look like you've just rolled around in the muck.

    You see that's why the good people at St tropez introduced us to spray tan, & I'm afraid girls that I have to agree that if u don't put the money & effort into doing your tan right, then what's the point, i mean with the comments from the guys here about hitting off girls & flicking water at them to see their tans run ... it's obvious that most of you guys have been noticing girls that wear that €3.99 Rimmal CRAP!!
    COME ON GIRLS, GET YOUR ACT TOGETHER - you're giving the rest of us a bad name!!!!!!

    which proves my point that a lot of women simply wear it for a healthy glow

    It doesn't really. I would argue that Angelina Jolie looks just as healthy with the pale look. And definitely hotter.

    Not saying they look cheap (unless it's a complete peroxide job, in which case they do), I just don't understand why so many girls decide to ruin their hair with dye. Brunnettes are far sexier tbh.

    And fake tan + peroxide hair = slapper tbh.

    What I hate most is girls who wax so much of their eyebrows off so that there's a very thin line left, and especially when you can see the original eyebrow line in a completely different area. Or even worse, when they completely remove their eyebrows and draw them on. :eek:

    I hate that fake tan crap. Most women either can't apply it properly, or just get cheapy crap stuff, cos they look like they have jaundice.

    i actually cant remember one day this summer wher ive been witout make up or fake tan...i jus think tanned skin looks much better.like,yellow t-shirt and tanned skin or yellow t-shirt and pale irish skin...god bless st.tropez!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,597 ✭✭✭Aisling(",)


    I personally don't tan naturally never have never will.I have to put on fake tan because i put on shows.i can't put it on properly it looks like crap.i like to wear 3/4 lenghts but if i do my friends keep on saying how i look dead(I am seriously pale) and people always ask me do i feel sick because i am so pale.Sometime it can look nice on other people but is once in a blue moon

    TBH I'm not that made about women with tans, infact I prefare women with pale skin, I detest fake tans. One of the sexiest women i know has pale skin. Funny enough though I try get a tan whenever I can as its the thing to do...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,519 ✭✭✭Oral Slang


    I've never worn fake tan or gone on sunbeds & don't think I ever would...
    Most of friends do one or the other though - I just couldn't be arsed. The orange hands & streaks behind the ears just don't appeal to me.
    Then again I'm lucky - I've really sallow skin & get a really nice golden colour very quickly.. Most people think I'm from Germany or Scandanavia... I don't think I'd have the patience applying fake tan every time I went out & would worry too much about the risks of going on sunbeds.

    All of my male mates agree that the tone of a womans skin does not seem to be an issue (as opposed to judging someone by the clothes they wear or whatever )

    we are talking about the tone of a white girls skin right !

    Your skin must be dreadful. You do realise that it needs to breathe don't you?
    yellow t-shirt and tanned skin or yellow t-shirt and pale irish skin...god bless st.tropez!
    You could, like, just not wear yellow?
