Has anyone tried using olive oil as tanning oil? I've heard it's good for your skin but I'm not sure about the results? I want a good, healthy, natural tan.

There is no such thing as a healthy tan. A tan leads to skin cancer & premature aging. Go for a good fake tan. Never be out without spf.

Lol it's fine, go out and get some sun! I use coconut oil but olive oil will work too, it's just heavier.

I think you should go for moderation and use a tanning lotion with SPF (doesn't prevent you from tanning, just protects) and make sure you don't stay out too long, and moisturize afterwards :) also, be especially safe if you're going to be in the water since it actually magnifies the sun's rays!

Please don't do this. My friend did this and got seriously burnt. Its very dangerous. If you want a tan use fakebake or get a spray tan.

Olive oil will burn your skin so fast in the sun. please don't use it for tanning. however a few capfuls in the tub will make you skin soft and supple.
