Does Skinny Cream make the skin more prone to sunburn? Also, can the product be used for 2 month prior to getting a spray tan? Thx!

I used this product during the winter months exposure to sun was limited. I'm African American so I don't use spray tan.

Yes, or mix the foundation into the cream. The sunscreen is quite thick & takes awhile to rub in. I have also found Coppertone Sunbabies to be a good product under makeup. I am very fair skinned.

Yes, you can. I use it day and night (and have not had it react to sunlight). It is labeled a "night" cream because it does not contain sunscreen, and because it is a heavier moisturizer than many people want to use for daytime. My skin is very dry, and I have found it very helpful to use it both times (instead of buying both a day cream and this night cream like I used to). It is absorbed into the skin quite well, so it really isn't too heavy for daytime if you have dry skin. It has the added benefit of being less expensive than buying two different moisturizers. You can always use a separate sunscreen if you'll be outside. Yes, you can. I use it day and night (and have not had it react to sunlight).

Jennifer.....I have been using it as a Day & Night cream under my makeup foundation for a year now. I tend to have sensitive skin and this did not inflame my skin. I do believe it has softened my existing wrinkles......I am 65. It sits lightly on the skin.....and if you put it on and lay down for a few minutes, like me, you may actually feel it tightening.

I would only recommend this for the face. It's a small bottle, comes out in just a few drops at a time, and is thin in consistency. Unlike one of the other answers, I would not recommend a spray for the rest of the body for a couple of reasons: one, is that there is no non-chemical sunblock in the form of a spray; and two, sprays do not provide nearly the protection that the creams provide.

It's the only souution I use now. Me and all my clients love it. when it fades, it fades nicely if you keep yourself moisturized really good all the time and the tan last longer if you keep it moisturized. I hope I helped. Feel free to contact me if any other questions

This product helped me with brown spots, but it works better after you have washed your face and waited around 30 minutes to apply the cream. I cannot say anything regarding sun exposure. I would say ask your own doctor about, to make sure you get the proper care according to your own skin condition. Good luck.

nothing happen but you skin is sensitive, you probably need different cream, I put my after shower and help me before expose to the sun, just avoiding contact with eyes. Is help me under make-up too!

Personally I would wait at least 24 hours to use this after a spray tan session before applying it. Other than that, I use it daily whether I tan or not.

The "tanning" part can rub off on your clothing if you go to thick with it. It takes a week or so to reach it's maximum color, and can be kept up with less frequent application. It really does give a nice glow to the skin.You have to be paying attention to how and where you apply this to prevent streaks, and avoid brown palms etc. It does improve the appearance of your skin. Because it does require some attention while applying, I would not recommend this as a quick apply and go daily cream.

I have used this on myself with good results while swimming or sweating. I am moderately fair skinned, and I often get a bit of a tan following prolonged exposure while wearing sunblock, which is normal for me and I don't mind. I think that did happen a little with this, but I didn't find that unique to this product, and it also could be partially due to my own failure to reapply per the directions, as I often go longer than the labels recommend before reapplying. The same company also has a "thinksport" product, which I have not tried, but sounds like it is specifically for sweating. I have used this on myself with good results while swimming or sweating.

What I really liked about it is it did not make my skin thin.Also it has worked for my nails. Some moisturizers make the end of my nails split.This does not. I use the night cream 24. I am not a model just a regular 60year old. I still have some wrinkles. I work with the public and get compliments on my skin.Mom taught us to take care of our skin.I started win cold cream.Do not smoke or drink and eat well and sleep well.

My friend and I have used it both before and after. We started using it before we had a tan because we were very pale. It evenly tans the skin without turning orange. Then we found that it is such a good moisturizer that we kept using it! I really like it.

Not at all! this is one of the best sunscreen I ever used. At first it will leave a fade white film on your skin but it will disappear almost immediately, I do apply this little by little pea size portions over different areas of my face and neck until I cover the entire area. I use a light moisturizer before to apply this product because my skin is very dry but if your face is oily I will recommend you to use it by itself to try it first without moisturizer :) good luck!

I think with spf you can't stay in the sun a lot because you will still get sun damage. I used this at the beach in the summer for a couple of hours and I was fine but did not stay the whole day in the sun. I find that only a couple of hours in the sun every day with spf and I will still get darker as I tan easily even tho have fair-light skin!!! Hope that helps:)

It didn't seem to take too long. My sister has been using it for a month and her skin has lightened about 2 shades. However, she does avoid direct sunlight and she also uses an exfoliate before she uses the soap. I hope everything works out for you! Good Luck! :)

Don't use is for a few of days and you will lose your buildup. I've not had any trouble with ugly buildup, but I am careful with use around dry areas like knees and heels. I have fair skin and it gives me a really nice tan with daily use, but my tan will fade quickly if I don't apply the Malibu "Hemp" for several days.
