Hello I’m Aaron Marino form Alpha M Image Consulting. Now you probably notice that
Alpha M is getting kind of high tech with our new video intro, well I can take absolutely
no credit for that, that was actually said to me by a subscriber in Kentucky named
Brandon who sent it to me so that I could use it and he wouldn’t sue me and so I think it
looks fantastic, thank you Brandon.
Now let’s get down to business. The other day I received an email asking my opinion on
tanning. Well my opinion is, is that everybody looks better with a little color or a tan but
the reality is that most of us don’t have the time to spend hours in the sun by the pool, a
lot of us also don’t have the skin tone or complexion. We spend much time in the sun and
we’re going to burn.
So there are three fantastic options out there for us so to achieve that golden glow. We’re
going to discuss the pros and cons with each of them. The first one, the spraying on tan,
the upside of the spraying on tan is its fast. You walk in pasty white, get hosed off, leave,
let marinate for about 12 to 24 hours and you’ve got a savage tan that last about a week.
The downside, it smells a little bit funny and you’ve got to wallow in that stink for about
12 to 24 hours.
Now very important to remember on Friday night you want to go out, do not on Friday go
get that spray on tan, reason being you’re going to start dancing, moving, sweating,
you’re going to look like your melting. You are also going to stain your clothes, not a
good look. But the other positive to the spray on is its safe, okay. You’re not going to get
skin cancer from the spray on tan.
The next option is the self tanning lotion, great option; you can do it at home. The tricky
thing of the two tanning lotions is finding a lotion that actually works with your skin
tone. I have seen a lot of people put it on. The next day they look orange so when you
buy a new tanning lotion go home and try it on a portion of your body that’s covered by
clothes before you do the whole body. It’s also safe. Now one thing you need to
remember when you apply the tanning lotion once your done go in and wash and scrub
the bottoms of your hands and you r cuticles very well. If you don’t you’re going to wake
up and you’re going to look like you were staining your deck all night long, the bottom of
your hands are going to be all brown and stained in your cuticles, not a good look.
And last but not least, the tanning bed. Now I’m not a dermatologist or a doctor so I’m
not speaking about the health risks of a tanning bed. I have a friend who owns a tanning
salon who said that tanning beds are much safer than the sun but I have a hard time with
that because I’m not spending all the day everyday in the sun. However, the tanning bed
is a great way for you to achieve a real tan without actually spending any time in the sun.
I also have some questions from people that ask me they say, “Aaron, I want to go in a
tanning bed but I don’t want a tan lines and I don’t want to burn my private parts?” What
do I do? I’ve got the answer for you my friends, it maybe surprising or maybe obvious, it
is on your feet and it is the sock, I don’t think I need to explain this all that much but you
know going to the tanning beds strip down, put your sock on the new place and enjoy
your new savage tan. So thanks for watching, I’ll talk to you real soon and thanks so
much Brandon, I’ll talk to you soon, bye-bye.
