Perhaps a bit overdone?

I have not birthed children. My husband has 2 that I have been step mom to for 16 years.

yikes! I have skin cancer in my family…the ones that have had it also have red hair like me, so I am crazy obsessed with skin protection. I wish I would have started when I was young though. I was sunburned all the time as a kid and tried to keep up with my blondie sister who always tanned so easily. I have had friends tell me I should use a self tanner (and I have!), but when it comes down to it, that isn't a look I want at all. Red heads esp. are supposed to be super pale and freckly. I embrace that now. AND I need to care for my tattoos–sun is the enemy. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif

Well that lady is plain crazy. Honestly most people with that little melanin in their skin tend to look tres bizarre overly tanned…I find it super-off-putting when I watch ballroom dance & fitness pros who are pretty much orange.
I tan pretty easily even for an Asian…just walking around in the Texas heat will do it for me and I love swimming outdoors. I wear a high SPF sunblock all the time, sunglasses & something on my head when I swim…that's all I can do. Everything's gonna kill ya eventually….

I live in Australia and my father actually died from skin cancer after a very protracted battle that involved several skin grafts and the removal of his eye, so you better believe I take skin cancer seriously. The woman maintains that she only took her daughter into the tanning room with her, not the actual bed itself. Whether this is true or not, the fact remains that the child, the red haired fair skinned child, was still somehow allowed to become sunburned. This shows some negligence on the behalf of her parents even if she did not actually use a tanning bed. Personally, given the extreme the mother has taken with her own tanning I do not find it difficult to believe she perhaps hopped out of the bed 5-10 minutes before the end of her session and put her daughter in. She clearly has no boundaries when it comes to what she believes is healthy when it comes to tanning…

Not sure what the skin cancer ads are like where that lady is from but clearly they need to be a bit more hard hitting like what we have in Aus..

My mum is Finnish and my dad is (I’ll say Mediterranean) – when I say ethnically Northern AFRICAN people doubtfully double take, since I’m not (pc) black. So I tan great, during high school I would prevent skin exposure while on vacations, towels and scarfs on head. Greenish pale, like green olives was the colour of my skin. My mum envied my skin tone. In fact without sunless tanning my mum kinda looks similar to this lady’s supposed (2nd) photo. No skin cancer yet (knock on wood, & 55 yo).
I finally go into the sun and never got burnt other than during/after a 3 day nude period at Burning Man ( I blame dehydration).
Sunless tanning has Tremendously improved my acne – scars & ingrown hair growth. And mood, best & cheapest antidepressant -anti anxiety Tx. So what I spend $100 on a bottle of tanning lotion?
So beauty is in the eye of the beholder, & I doubt the salon would risk lawsuit. And 15 minutes of fame is SO alluring to so many; we (those with social media access) should know that some are stupid enough to do anything for it & more.
