I do not, and never have been one to sit out in the sun to get a tan. I have fair skin but am inclined to get lots of big freckles from too much sun. LOL
When I go outside, I wear a hat and put on sunscreen for protection. Sadly whilst a bit of a tan might look good, too much sun is also how people get skin cancer and we have such a high incidence of it here in Australia.

Absolutely right, even in my day there was no such thing as skin cancer!!!!

I don't like to sunbathe as such either. I prefer to work outside when it's sunny. My nextdoor neighbour has skin cancer & had a large piece of it removed from his leg recently. The skin graft didn't take and now he'll have to live with a large chunk missing from his leg. He is in his 70's though, but even still it is sad.

I feel I look better with a tan and that makes me feel better with a tan.
I know lots of people that I would say look far better in the summer than they do by the end of winter. :)
Then you have those that go way over board and look aweful. Way too much tan and damage to their skin.
My wife never tans for health reasons and she looks great to me.

Hi WebMann I like a bit of a tan too - you just have to stick your head out the door here in Oz and you've got one! Thanks for responding. Here's something for good luck!
It's puppy again - pops up all over the place!!!

It seems we're never happy with what we've got doesn't it? I'd love to have naturally tanned complexion.

Personally - I would love to have some color to my skin as I am fair and since I don't ever wear makeup - I hate having any pictures taken because I look so light - they just don't look as good to me as if I had some color. But what can you do - I am not sure about the Fake Bake - or those lotions you can use to get some color. Yet I so love being out in the Sun - when it's actually out during the day. I love the Summer kind of look with being a lil bit red and some brown too!!!

I have fair skin too. Living in Oz you just have to stick your head out of the door and you've caught the sun! I like to be brown, but hate sunbathing. I like to work in the sunshine. LOL. Thanks for responding!

I think people with very pale skin look better without a tan. I think everyone else needs a little color!
