Why get a burn?: I think you know what the doctors on here will recommend- use sunscreen. It's not to say that you can't tan at all but using any non-spf oil significantly increases your risk of burning and of getting wrinkles and of getting skin cancer. In my opinion if you have to get the sun with no protection, using nothing is better than going for an oil.
