Preteen Self-Tanner Use
Is it OK for my preteen to use a self-tanner?
If your son or daughter wants to look like they got a tan in the middle of the winter, self-tanning lotions are generally safe. Test a small area of the skin before applying to the whole body to make sure there is no allergic reaction. One thing to note, though: Tanning salons are completely inappropriate for preteens.
