I'm black. I was born with it
good point...OP try finding a way to put more melanin in your skin0 -
luckily I have olive skin and stay a decent color most year but I do admit to some light tanning bedness in the spring before I go to the lake/pool so I don't get burnt after being outside for long periods of time.0

In the sun, the old fashioned way.0

I'm Irish... so my tan is lobster red.
this is my problem. then I go right back to being white.0 -

You win. LOL
I get mine outside...naturally...while mowing the lawn.0 -
In the sun. I have to coach sport and also while I'm spending time with my horses every day. I'm really pale during winter, though!0

At the pool, where I was most times this summer, and doing yard work.0

I'm half Hawaiian, so I was born this way...0

I avoid the sun.... and love my skin!:bigsmile:0

I'm half indian so I'm naturally tanned :-D0

From the sun but I'm Irish blooded so it only turns into a tan if my freckles join forces!0

I don't tan on purpose, but I have very fair skin, so if I want to enjoy my life, it's inevitable I'm going to get color.
What color I have comes mostly from exercising outside -- walking/running and swimming. Sometimes a day at the beach.0 -
Go outside. Run around. Shower, rinse, repeat0

I dream of Fake n' Bake, because my "tan" can only come from a bottle. Unfortunately, I'm awful at applying it correctly, and have to use a booth.0

I play outside. Sometimes without a shirt.0

its pretty obvious from my pic that I prefer to be ghastly0

From a bronzer SPF lotion and from the sun. High SPF (50-110) + Sun for hours a day = light golden tan without a burn.
I have little choice to be in the sun all the time because of where I live (I guess I could stay inside all day, but...) so I'm always slathered in SPF. Nevertheless, I still have a decent light tan. I don't glow but I don't look deep tanned, either.0 -
At the beach in the summer. :P0

The sun...I'm outside a lot, and often without a shirt in the summer months. I get pretty pasty in the winter though...save for maybe my head and face.0

Mostly running/walking but also I'm at the beach all summer.0
