Olympic Tan

I've used Protan for my contests for the last 2 years. I'm thinking of trying Olympic Tan. Has anyone tried it?

Would the Olympic tan be the competition, gold bronzer, or tropic sun competition tan?

or am I looking at totally the wrong product?

I'm talking about the competition tan. we are not allowed to use Dream Tan in the shows that I do in Illinois. So that one is out of the question.

Kim....try the Olympic Tan. You'll love it. You won't smell to high heaven from it, the smell is nicer, you won't be orange int he sunlight either. Its more of a Natural looking tan. In the pic I used 3 coats and was as dark if not darker than the girls that were sprayed or used Protan.

Why would DreamTan be banned?

I think I'm going to try the Olympic tan. 3 coates I'm sold I have to put on 5-6 of protan and it does stink. It's messy as well.

Jaime...You have no clue. That isn't going to be dark enough for an NPC show.

I'd like to see that one. Neutrogena on stage. Sorry it's not going to work put on a couple of coates of Protan and tell me the difference. I've used Neutogena Deep dark for normal use it's not dark at all.

How long before the competition do I have to put protan on? And how often should it be applied?

You should put on a ton of weight before hanging out in this forum.

On a serious note, I'm competing in September....I have a tan via tanning salon, but know that I will have to amplify that even more with a tanner...when do I start applying? A few days before?

For my shows I put a coat of Protan on Thursday night. Rinse Friday morning and I add 4-5 more coats. On saturday morning I shower and add a coat of Protan Bronzer. This year I'm going to try Olympic Tan.

All I did was ask when to put on tanning lotion. I just needed an awswer. Robin asked the exact same question, and she got a straight answer. So, I'm going by what you told her. Thanks!

With the Olympic Tan you can start on Thursday. PM me if ya need more info. I'm not giving out anymore so the skinny girl that really needs to gain 25lbs doesn't bother posting.

And yes....I am being mean. Jaime...don't waste the effort to PM me either. I won't answer. I don't have the time to bother with it.

What is the best stuff to use just for a natural look not just for shows that looks the best.
