Why do I tan so quickly?

There are a few reasons why some people tan quickly, some health-related, some social, and some to do with where you live. For example, people who have naturally darker skin will often tan more quickly than those with lighter skin, as they have more melanin in their skin. You also have to bear in mind that most people today work indoors and spend little time outside, so if you go outside a lot or dedicate even a little time to tanning, you’ll probably be more tanned than most. You’ll also tan quickly if you live somewhere that gets a lot of sun or is at a high altitude.
