What Are Skin Types?
Skin types are based on how your skin reacts to sun exposure. Some people burn easily, while others tan quickly. Knowing your skin type helps you choose the right tanning routine and products.
The Six Main Skin Types
-
Type 1: Very fair skin, burns easily, rarely tans.
-
Type 2: Fair skin, burns easily, tans minimally.
-
Type 3: Light to medium skin, may burn a little but tans steadily.
-
Type 4: Medium to olive skin, tans easily and rarely burns.
-
Type 5: Darker skin tones, tans easily with minimal risk of burning.
-
Type 6: Deeply pigmented skin, very rarely burns, tans easily.
Tanning Tips for Your Skin Type
If you’re fair-skinned, start with very short sessions and use a gentle indoor tanning lotion. If you tan easily, you can build your color faster — but still take it slow to protect your skin!
