Tips on getting rid of t-shirt tan

    Hey,
    Over the past summer I've unfortunately gained a lovely t-shirt tan and I'm really embarrassed about it.
    My girlfriend is coming back in two weeks after a long summer away from each other & I'm dreading her seeing it.

    Does anyone out there know of any good tips on getting rid of it?

    Been sunbathing for about an hour when the sun's out, but only my chest seems to get some tan, my upper arms stay a pasty white.
    I'm not sure if tanning salons would help at all cause, though my white areas would get tanned, my tanned parts would just get darker wouldn't they?

    I don't know, any help would be really appreciated
    Many thanks :)

    Hi Jay, you could try the tanning beds. About a half an hour before heading to the tanning salon put sun cream SPF on your brown bits and let it soak in. You'll notice a difference even after 2 or 3 visits. If the process is too slow you could keep putting sun cream on the brown bits and tan accelerator on your paler parts.
    Or you could try some skin lightening creams on the tan.
