Do you lay out in the sun or go to the tanning bed to get your tan? Or do you do both? I do both because my skin disorder. Either way to much sun is dangerous and so is the tanning bed. But what one do you thing is better?

Like you I do both. I feel better when I have a tan, I look better with some color. I tan year round. I know bad, but I also go to the dermatologist twice a year and she tells me every time that if all her patients had my skin she would be out of business.
I protect my face at all times, so that it does not age excessively and do not tan to the point of having rubbery or orange skin.

I have seen people get so dark that it is gross looking. I get a tan but i never turn dark. I don't like a lot of the dermatologist medications for my skin problems so I don't take them. To many bad side effects. So I try and use the sun and tanning beds to help it. And creams for my skin. I use sea weed soap or shea butter soap only for my skin.
