I've heard that you can turn a sunburn into a tan, while minimizing the damage of the UV rays. However I've never tried this and don't know what the results look like. I've seen a YouTube video before of a Rhode Island girl who had somewhat a reddish/orangish tan too. As for reddish brown, if I can't really say that I liked the other two tans, perhaps I could also try getting a brown tan with a reddish tint to it. I wonder what the best method is of achieving these kinds of tans? Btw, I've never really tanned before, as I don't live near the beach.
Sunburning is very bad for your skin no matter what.
I've only seen odd orange colored tans from people who used sunless tanning lotions. Sunless Tanning Lotion
My mother used to use baby oil and iodine. That was reddish going on. Iodine(for the staining), and baby oil for the moisturizing. I would "not" recommend doing that.
Sunless tanning lotion, especially one that's too dark for your skin tone, will give you a reddish brown tan without the risk of skin cancer and premature aging.
How could I get a reddish brown tan, though? Thanks for the information! Very helpful.
Hard to believe that this is a serious question. The color tan that you get, from sunlight, completely depends on the kind and color of skin that you have.
Most people I've seen with a reddish tint (that sounds weird) to their skin tone/tan are at least part non-Caucasian/non-European.
