Tanning pills

[RovinC]

Actually I think you are wrong about Trisoralen not helping even white red heads.

Why? well I am of irish decent and was about as white as a ghost for many years. Reddish brown hair too, freckles
Used to blister in the sun

Hair got browner, tan so dark people would ask what, how, etc.

All I did was 2 cycles of Trisoralen in a year, 500mg tyrosine/500mg PABA and some B's and E.

So in all it cost me $100 plus the supps. Now I still can tan, though not as well or fast as when on it. Would love to find it again.

So youre saying the Melano makes you dark w/o any UV?

Great info, appreciate your perspective! Sounds like it does have a market and helps folks

No, the melanotan doesnt do much without UV. It can give some pigment, but UV is generally a large consideration

Well that leads me back to my original question why anyone would inject?

Saw the video and its the same thing as Tri and Ox, but w/ them theres no inj nor nausea and allot cheaper, Ox anyway.

I can see why some use it for libido, but just to tan beats me.

Because melanotan products are likely to lead towards something which will help those with skin cancer and other photoprotection concerns and gain approval. Not sure the tri tanning pills are going to achieve as much. But we will see....
I find it efficient, safe and effective. Therefore, I inject. Cost is not a consideration when it comes to my body/lifestyle and I can find many reasons why to inject. Comparing the value is between tri and melanotan is n/a. apples and oranges

Well Tri and Ox soralen have been around for decades, and Tri is even mentioned in the PDA as being used for increasing skin pigmentation.
Also they are used for vertiligo, where a person has NO pigment in areas of their skin and it can return it to normal. Tri has almost no sides, which I can attest to, Ox you can get an upset stomach.

As to the action, they are the same as Melano, with the same results.
Just one is a simple pill you take for 2 weeks w/ set UV schedule and youre done.

both achieve the same results as to pigmentation and UV by stimulating melanin production. Melanin is melanin. Both need UV to work. Same sun protection, etc.

Id bet if Tri and Ox were promoted differently, Melano would lose favor quickly.

I mean if you got the same results, didnt have to inject, can only do it for 2 weeks and quit... its kinda a no brianer. Melano has a niche market, but there are easier ways to get the same darkness.

good luck though!
