lightbulb tan

A lightbulb tan is a tan gained from spending lots of time under a lightbulb. It usually results in people who are abnormally white. People who have lightbulb tans live in places that are in the middle of nowhere, are usually completely antisocial, and seem to never come out of their bright caves.

Rick: Hey where's Jim?

Bob: He is working on his lightbulb tan.
Rick: That antisocial New Jerseyite.

Power-tanning

In efforts to get a tan by direct sun-exposure, one knowingly avoids high SPF values in order to get a darker skin-color ASAP. This usually means risking a sunburn. However, burnt skin will gradually turn tan.

Girl 1: Hey, you should apply some sunscreen. You're gonna get a sunburn.

Girl 2: That's OK, I'm power-tanning.

Neapolitan Tan

AKA neapolitan sunburn or simply neapolitan burn, where there are three distinct shades of colour on one's body where sunburn has affected it, thus creating brown, pink and white shades. Occurs mostly on the back of the legs.

Hey did you get a load of Andy's sunburn?

Yeah he was left with a pretty epic neapolitan tan

tanning injections

Tanning injections refer to the injection of one of the melanotan peptides (melanotan-1 and melanotan II) to develop pigmentation in one's skin thus allowing individuals who ordinarily cannot tan or have difficulty doing so (fitzpatrick skin type I and type II, ie: redheads and gingers) to be able to do so. See: Melanotan.org

United Kingdom Jordan's (Katie Price) boyfriend was amazingly tanned from having used tanning injections.
