I'm going on a cruise for the first time in June. I'm a very, very pale person. I usually wear at least an SPF50 when I'm going to be outside. Whenever I get any "color", I pretty much turn bright red, and then fade back to white immediately (No "tan" transition).
A few of my friends are telling me I really should go tanning before the cruise. Most of them say it's because I'm going to just "look funny" being in the Bahamas and pale ... but a few have suggested it might make my skin less sensitive to the sun, because I'll have more pigment in it. Is there any truth to this?
What do you ladies recommend?
