I'm white as fuck. Thought about using it once. Don't really care enough to put something in my body that hasn't had long term testing done.

damn, 3-4 hours of aussie sun every day. I woulda thought you'd go real dark from that + use.  What was your skin type?

Did you do it every day or EOD?
and do you remember dose?


I tend to get EXTREMELY sunburnt for 2-3 days, peel and am a dark brown from there on after. I already had a pretty decent tan before using MTan, I was very, very dark after using (Darker than I had ever been in my life)
Every day for a week I believe
No idea sorry

hmm. I have olive skin and usually tan quite well. But atm just coming out of winter/spring I havent had much consistent sun and have lost any tan i had.

Im curious about how much of a dosage/sun exposure Ethan is getting. Id like his tan for a start.

Most likely fine.
Aside from a few reports, most everything seems safe.. so unless you're a genetic aberration or you use an egregiously high dose, it SHOULD be okay.
I've read before of the possibility for moles to increase in size though
Also watch out for your BP.. Idk of any reports of this, but melanocortin receptor agonists certainly activate the SNS



Nice, thanks!
Based on what you know about it and effect on us that tanning has, would you expect there to be any long term ill effects? Like leathery skin when im 60? lol
I would assume no, but what do i know haha

I am naturally tan.

0.5 MG a week was all it took for me to get super tan this summer. I was outside quite a lot though.

One day in the dominican when we were on a bunch with direct sun all day, people kept coming up to me and saying "we can see you just getting darker and darker throughout the day" while everyone else just burnt bad, i got SUPER tan.

if you need to be darker with less sun, you need a higher dose. If you get plenty of sun, a lower dose should be fine.

0.5mg is the highest dose anyone needs.

The side effects are more pronounced at 1mg or higher and you can deter most of those by taking an antihistamine.

Caught me actually. I was doing 0.25g a week, not 0.5.


My bad.

0.25g/7 = ~0.035g per day

0.035g = 35mg

aka you were doing 70 times the amount xGearz has suggested
