How do I get rid of a really, really, really bad tan line?

I went to the Bahamas on vacation and I went snorkeling. I didn't put enough sunscreen on my back so i came home with a bright red sunburn that stretched from my shoulders to where my bikini bottoms started.





Now, the skin on my back is a mildly dark brownish color, except I've got a solid strip of my natural skin (which is quite light) going across my back where my bikini top was when I got burned. You can see where it hooked and everything -- so it's not very subtle.





Also, if I wear any low cut jeans or shorts and top that doesn't go past my hips, there's a really embarassing tan line that really visible from where my swim bottoms were when I got burned.





I going into highschool and the freshman class is having a pool party. I'm afraid I'm going to get embarassed if someone sees my tan lines.





How can I get rid of my tan lines? These lines aren't the type that will just fade away with time.

You can have tan sprayed on.





You can apply self tanning lotion yourself.

Reply:My advice is to get a sense of humor and play along if anybody makes fun of you. "They don't let you run around naked in the Bahamas you know..."

Reply:A tanning booth. Also You can just wear a white tank top and board shorts over your bikini.
Reply:get a spray tan.......no tanning bed, no tan lines!!!
Reply:hmmm... i guess if they aren't the type to just fade over time the only thing you would be able to do would be to apply a fake tan to the lines... but i don't know why you are embarrassed... tan lines are really not that bad!!! they just show you've been on an awesome holiday, and have a great natural tan :)
Reply:There are some really great self tanning lotions on the market.


One, called the tanning towel creates a very natural to dark tan in a few hours. You can actually match the tan color of your choice.


I would suggest going to a department store and speaking to the cosmetic consultant and ask for help. Clarins has a good self tanning product as do almost all of the cosmetic lines.
Reply:I dunno personally i think tan lines r sexy, I dont know why girls complain about it so much. If anyone only the girls at the party would make remarks, but who cares? Your not perfect right? Just go and have fun, who cares wtf sum one says.
Reply:Just wear the exact same suit to the party, seamless.
