This is going to sound weird, but I want my skin to be paler.

I got a bit of a tan during the summer, but I really liked my pale skin before. Any remedies, etc anyone knows about?

At most beauty supply stores they sell lightening cream. Usually for freckles and age spots, it will work on tan skin. This could get expensive though. The active agent in it is lemon juice, so lemons could be an alternative.

Stay out of the sun. Read vampire books. Get some goth friends.

roll around in tomato sauce, afterwards drink 250 ml of vinegar, then take a bath. Turn the heat up in your house as high as it will go, go to sleep under a thick blanket. The sweat will sweat all the tan out of you.Your Welcome.

What? No. Don’t do that. You’ll get dehydrated.

Well I burn in the sun, I mean really burn, sometimes I can burn from being outside on a cloudy day, my skin is really sensative so I have to sta pale, well I have no choice really it is either this or lobster red lol, I don’t tan, the closest I get to a tan is when all my freckles come out but thats usually after I have burnt (painfull). What I find helps to stay “fair” or “pale” is useing sun cream all the time even when it is not sunny, UV rays can still get through the clouds and thats what damages your skin, so just apply a ong lasting sun cream in the morning, one that will last all day and there you have it, if you kee doing that then after a while your tan will fade on its own and the sun cream will stop you getting a top up tan.

try vaseline and chicklets, cover yourself in vaseline , then slowly place chicklets all over your body in a mosaic like formation. Use the green chicklets ony, because the chloryphyll contained in them will suck the tan off you lickity split.

Evan, please stop posting things like this. It’s pointless, and makes you look retarded.

You can make your skin lighter by staying out of the sun. If you can’t draw a line between making a joke and making fun of someone, you’re on the wrong site. Maybe try 4Chan.

Oh you like to tan?
I think thats bad, a tanned skin means a damaged skin, also the sun makes the skin age faster so the longer you stay out in the sun the more years is added not only that but each time you go in the sun unprotected you are saying “hello sun, give me my daily dose of cancer!”
