How much can a good tan drop BF% appearence?

**go4gold** · 02-19-2010, 03:54 PM

Alright, so being super white can really suck. I have trouble tanning and always have. But I am considering Melanotan II. I have a very white complextion which I think hinders my definition quite a bit I think. I think my pale skin gives me a higher BF% look. Just wondering what you guys think about how much a good tan improves your appearence and definition.

Im not quite sure about it making your bf% look lower but to me it just makes you look healthier to have some color and what muscles you do have it makes them look more defined. Im like you as far my skin complexion being on the pale side. I hit the tanning beds during the winter and go the the beach alot during the summer.

It wont make it look lower as jbrann said it makes you look healthier and darker skin gives off more shadows hence muscles looking more defined

Well thats kinda what I was lookin for. Just want the tan to show what you do have. I should have rephrased the question. Just want to look more defined, plus having skin like powder sucks.
