BEST fake tanning lotion/cream/stuff? Please Read! ^_^?

So heres the deal:

I'm white and I'm always a horrible ghostly shade for summer. Last year I tried tanning, but it was a WASTE of money because I'd be pink for a day, then right back to white! I apparently can't become tan.

I want to try the fake tanning stuff, but I want to know what's best.

I've tried a lotion once before; it was white when it came out of the tube, but then rubbed off onto my clothes as tan EVEN after I waited the set amount of time.

Any good products or suggestions?

Thanks!!!

    wouldnt suggest this.

    I'm extremely pale. I always wished I was tan. The truth is, it's not worth it. Love yourself for who you are and realize you don't need fake tanned skin to be happy. I know that's not what you wanted to hear. Just remember, whatever you put on your skin gets absorbed into your body. Excessive use of anything chemical/unnatural isn't healthy. Fair skin was once a sign of beauty and wealth...what happened?

    If youre quite pale then you should probably use a gradual tanning lotion. It will build up a lovely golden tan and if you make mistakes its not so drastic, as well as probably looking much more natural.

    I love Vaseline Tanning Lotion. It builds up the tan slow, but you never turn out orange.

    Jergens Natural Glow.

    found at walmart, shopko, anywhere like that. match the skin tone on the bottle to the color you want, then read directions as far as how to apply, how much, how often, etc.
