17 People Who Took Tanning Too Literally

Tan will always fade, but their photos last for a lifetime. Summer remains the best season to feel the sun and the perfect time to get a nice tan. Flaunting off a beautiful tan is one great inspiration when visiting the beach, and being able to don outfits with a golden hue on the skin can downright be satisfying. However, some people tend to go a bit far to achieve their desired tan.

From bizarre to embarrassing tan lines, these people featured in our article had possibly wished they washed their tan off a bit sooner than they did. Most are hilarious but are also the unfortunate tanning fails we’ve ever seen. Without any further ado, have a look at the people who went a little too far under the sun and, YES, got genuinely marked. Enjoy!
