White spots on arms which are awful when tan

Anyone have good luck with any solution to calming down the white spots when you tan? They aren't to bad when I am not tanning...but when summer hits it is awful. Any advice?

Re: White spots on arms which are awful when tan

I have a few of those, I assume you're talking about spots where there's no pigmentation in your skin? Mine don't really bother me. A self-tanner might help to blend them in.

Pigmentation, that is correct. My mom too has it and she did try a slow tanning lotion, however the spots turned orangey. Possibly I will here back from someone who has used a particular tanning product that worked well with this. Or, something that will allow you to tan and not have all of the spots show up so bold. Ahhhhhhhhh.... Thanks so much to responding!!!!

Re: White spots on arms which are awful when tan

I THINK i know what you are talking about... Pretty much just blotches on your skin where color doesn't show up? I have it on my legs... i hate it! I thought about asking the people at the tanning salon if there is anything I can do about it... it makes me embarrassed to wear skirts/shorts! Please let me know if you find something that works... !
