    Competition tanning

    I have always just painted myself for the competition tan however this year, I am going to try something different.
    I am using Melanotan 2 and I am going to tanning beds (I Tan). I was also told that they do spray tans that last up to a couple of weeks. Is this the same spray that they do the day of a competition? I know that water can ruin the one the day of the competition. Can I get the I Tan a couple of days before the show?

    MT2 can make a big difference and you don't need much of it if tanning consistently.
    Not so sure salon's can get you as dark as what painting does.

    Did you get additional “freckles “?

    No, but I'll get white spots that eventually fade.

    Melatonin ProTan and JanTanna

    That’s what us kids used back in the day. Last two days I’d sleep on an air mattress with black sheets.

    Same thing I used without the Melanotan. Base coat the day before and about 5 layers of the top coat the day of. Take a shower and no more tan.. sweating while posing presents its problems.

    Usually when you oil up it keeps the sweat from running the color most of the time but not always.
