I need to know where does this injection, i may just give it one shot and see if it does what it says.

Anyone in North east or East Anglia know anywhere?
There is loads of Gyms selling it in the North East.

But check out the links on this page...

Safer option... get a spray tan!!!!!!!

The technology is being developed in Adelaide Australia at the moment.
It makes you tan all over (even the white bits) it will make you look like even more of an Oompah Loompah Orange-utan.
I'd imagine this will have a grave effect on solariums and spray tans.
But people seem to be desperate for a tan.
Here's some info
Nanotechnology ups efficacy of tanning pill
or google "epitan".

This has got to be highly dangerouse (why not dangermouse)?..what if you stick the needle into an archery or inject an air bubble into your blood ....this cant be legal

I do like to have a tan - but I'm not that desperate.

God knows it is bad enough having to take pills/have injections to treat ill health.........not for me.

Just seen this thread and how interesting it was....what an opener...!!!

I saw the decreased appetite and increased libido part and was ready to sign up...but 35 pounds ( no pound key ) a week...and inject yourself....arrrrgggghhhhhhh no way....

Move to Spain...you get a tan without even intending to....
I personally don't get the tanning thing....but then I can say that because I tan easily....

I go a dirty dark brown so try to stay out of the sun for that reason plus the health side of it too....but I still colour come what may.....

Enjoy the skin you are in....no cost....no needles...(and just pretend it doesn't have the decreased appetite and increased arousal benefits....)

xxxxxxxx

I use all sorts of tanning stuff or different reasons. Sunbeds help with my general skin tone and blemishes, also love the relaxing time on them, i use a daly tinted moisturiser for an everyday tan, and st.tropez when im going somewhere special or when the sunbeds arnt working (99% of the time unless i caine them) then if i cant be bothered with the stress and the mess i get sum1 else to do the work and get a spray tan.
So i wanted the injection to help with the sunbed tanning that seems to be a waste of money for me for tanning purposes, great for me spots though!

I personally cant be happy with my colour as i have cellulite, uneven skin tone and contour and feel the pressure to look sunkissed (god i sound like a mingpot, ha) I would LOVE to not have to spend a single penny ever again on tanning, but until i tone up, stop getting spots and loose a little weight, i honestly just dont look good without one.

Id rather be dirty brown than white, alot of people would kill to tan when they dont even try, your lucky you know.

I have seen the results of these injections.

Not a natural looking tan - at all.

More of a hotdog colour, all over.


It looks Like the body builders wear in the competions.


Total turn off.

I suppose I am lucky in a sense ( although I have a body I would gladly give away )....and probably mad aswell....because I spend my time trying not to go too dark....
but don't get me wrong...I do like a golden tan and as soon as I get that far I stop and just try to keep out of the sun as much as possible....because then I just look like I haven't washed!!!
I am fair with blue eyes too so I don't match my skin....

My two eldest daughters are like sacks of flour...and they do all the sunbathing and burning, fake-tanning etc...and I just wish they would love their skin as it is pale but lovely.....
but then they say...'oh it's alright for you mum '

I know they both would have the tanning injections given the chance....and it is probably as a mum I would find it a tad disturbing....

There is something about injecting yourself in order to have a tan that leaves a bad taste....but maybe I am just an old fuddy duddy....

I never got what disability stopped someone from using the spell check tool anyway?

Anyway on the subject of tanning injections, I am thinking myself its a bit barbaric isnt it when there are so many other options available, why would somone want to do that to themselves?
