Searched the archives and found some of you bros use canthaxin, but it apparently turns your palms orange too. That doesn't sound too great! Usually this time of year I'll just hit the tanning bed, but was maybe considering some other options. I know there have to be alot of the bros out there that are getting "ready for summer" just like me. Oh yeah, I liked the one post about putting your "cock in a sock" while in the tanning bed!!! LOL........too funny. Guess it would work, you could get "athlete's cock" though! So anyway, what do you pros use?? deltman ------------------ IP: Logged |

That would be me, it's much better than gettin' your johnny burnt. As far as your question, go for Trisoralen, two tabs before you tan (usually eod). Canthax. makes you orange as hell! I remember once I took that stuff and thought I looked pretty damn good, then a female trainer got up enough guts to tell me that I had a "goofy" looking tan. With the trisoralen, use lots of sunblock on your palms and soles because they will get burnt - believe me. IP: Logged |

I have found a tanning place that has "hyperion" beds. These will tan you without the burn. Cost more $30 session but well worth it. The self tanners always look funny to me. ....and ahh..I like going "comando" in the beds..if your going to have that "all over" tan ...why have the white beacon in the drawers? I guess it's easier for your girl to find it in the dark!!! ------------------ IP: Logged |

Got another question.....so I assume it's okay to tan while on a cycle? I've taken steroid-based medications before and was told to avoid too much sunshine/light. ------------------ IP: Logged |

Hey I have a question about Trisoralen. ICN the manufacturer's are no longer making it. Where are you getting it? Are you getting a generic? I tried to order some...I work in a pharmacy but we could not get a hold of it. Please email me if have info. Platinum ------------------ IP: Logged |

Trisolaren generic: TRIOXSALEN Labeled Uses INCREASE TOL. TO SUN; ENHANCE SKIN PIGMENT VITILIGO
To enhance pigmentation or to increase tolerance of the skin to sunlight in selected patients (e.g., those with fair complexions), the usual dosage of trioxsalen is 10 mg daily, given as a single dose 2 hours before measured periods of sunlight or UVA exposure. The manufacturer states that treatment should not be continued for longer than 14 days and that the total dose of trioxsalen administered should not exceed 140 mg in a continuous or interrupted regimen.
