Need a Great Self Tanner . . .

So I am headed to West Palm Beach Florida in a few weeks and I am a pasty-white New Englander. I have no desire to fry in a tanning booth so I am looking for an excellent self tanner.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated by both myself and anyone else on the beach who may be blinded by my white skin!

The salon that I go to offers a really nice looking spray tan (they do it by hand like you're getting airbrushed) - it doesn't look like you ran into a bunch of orange markers! If you feel like making the treck it's Paul Kenneth Salon, Woburn, MA Julie does it the best: ###-###-#### and of course, mention that "M. K" sent you!

I have yet to find a self tanner that does is the equal of the spray tan. As a whitey mcwhiterson living in Texas, I can attest to its awesomeness. And it's cheap and lasts for about a month. There are many places that offer the natural kind.

I'm also a pasty New Englander! I use Jergens Natural Glow Face on my face & neck (great because it's spf 20 as well), and Nivea Body Sun-Kissed Firming Moisturizer for light to medium skin. Both work great with no streaking, easy to apply and they smell great. You'll get nice glowy skin in about a week.
