how can i get my feet to get as tan as the rest of my body? I hate having pale toes.... Is there any hints to how i can solve this problem, or do i have to go around looking like i permanantly have white socks on when i dont?

My feet are pretty pale also. I am almost 6 ft. so I'm pretty tall, and I usually have my toes "hanging out" of the bed... maybe id get more color if i kept them in the bed?

if you have access to a bed with facial tanners use that bed but turn around so you fee to get the face bulbs

i try and put lotion on my toes and feet, but maybe im not doing a good enough job.... i feel like i look like i have an old farmer's tan. I'd put self tanner on my feet until they tan to the same color scheme as the rest of my body, but self tanner always shows up on the feet. Grrrrrr....

I feel like my hands and feet are lighter than the rest of me....I use a mild tingle ( Dark kickin Ale or Spiked butter) on my arms, legs, hands and feet, and Ambrosia DD on the rest of me but they still never seem to match the rest of me.

i always put lotion on my feet and hands my feet are just as dark as the rest of me (i love that makes the silver toe rings stand out) wheni flip over in the bed my feet rest on the acrylic so they are closer to the bulbs. and make sure you always moisturize your feet.

I think moisturizing is key. My hands and feet tend to be drier than the rest of me, so I just moisturize them more, and use bronzer on them too.

I have been moisturizing so much that you can probably wring me out. lol Still have the pale toe thingy going on and I have even been using a tingle on them.

I made sure that when i tanned today to put accelerator with a tingle in it on my feet and toes. I think it had to of helped at least a little! I've got 3 silver toe rings, too, so hopefully it will make them stand out a little more!

I am like a turkey...I brown for 5 minutes on one side and then flip over. The beds they have do not have face tanners except in the mega bed (sonnenbraune 844) and I have only used that bed 1 time cause it costs so much. It takes 5 of my 20 visits each time I use it (20 visits for $45)

I agree that you should put your feet under the facial tanners when you can. That has always helped mine.

I put tanning lotion on the tops of my feet when I tan.... and I moisturize with Angel or Fully Loaded on the tops of me feet regularly.

feet and hands tend to be dryer so they won't tan as well, I use an exfoliating foot scrub and really moisturize a lot. For feet and hands I've been using the shea butter and moisturizing often.
