No: A high spf sunscreen can help to prevent sunburn but spray tan will not.

? how R U using it ?: If you avoid the sun, but use the fake tan, you can avoid a burn.This presupposes you don't have an allergic reaction to the fake tan which could cause a similar burn.The fake tan material has no ability to shield your skin from the sun, so if you go out, you can burn.
