Dermatologist reacts to tanning hackfrom @denverskindoc
[01]
Overview
A dermatologist reacts in a split-screen format to a viral video of a person applying baby powder over a fake tan. He then transitions to a full-screen view to explain that this hack helps the self-tanner dry faster and apply more evenly to prevent streaking. He endorses the technique and concludes by strongly advocating for self-tanning as a much safer alternative to real tanning, which he links to skin cancer from his professional experience.

The secret to the best fake tan
Transcript
Hold on. Follow that joke. Hold on a minute, sir. In here, mate. You might be wondering, what is that? Well, it's actually an ingenious way to get a better self tan. You apply baby powder everywhere rank then you brush it on. This helps dry the self tanner quicker, but it also helps evenly apply the self tanner no you don't get any streaking. This is all, of course, before you wash it off. I think it's a pretty cool rank. Anything to get a better self tan because that is 100% so much better than an actual real tan. That's coming from a dermatologist who cuts out skin cancers every single day.
