    Carrot Juice is a special BRAND of tanning oil you can buy....its not just juice from a carrot, Sorry.

    Also...it depends where you live. I could stay at the beach all day in NY and barley get ANY color....now that I live in FL I could be outside for an HOUR and get burned.

    Using oils on your skin like that can have an effect similar to coating a piece of chicken in oil and frying it up. It's really bad for your skin. If you're looking for instant results, then invest in a decent sunless tanner. It's safer for your skin, and gives you way more control over the results. If you do insist in lying in the sun, use a sun screen with SPF.

    try using Jergens Natural Glow. It works really well! It's not a self tanner, but a tinted moisturizer, so it won't streak or anything. It's foamy and goes on white, but if you use it constantly, after a week or so, you will notice a change in skin color.

    Hope I could help!! :)
