I do, too, but it is a nightmare to get off. I'm still finding bits of it on me from 3 weeks ago.
FYI - there are a lot of threads on tanning on the site already; I would suggest you do a search because there is some good information that has already been hashed out.

Under Larinda's orders, I used ProTan at Manhattan (my first "real" comp) and it did work beautifully. It's taken a while to get is absolutely ALL off (I still have some "freckles") but it actually didn't stain anything as badly as I thought it would and I had a lovely competition tan. Just do it the night before, follow the directions, and you'll be fine. The only problem I had was that it doesn't really do the face well--I based out my face and neck with makeup a couple shades darker than my usual, and it looked fine.
revealing DWs secret's here, generally she uses Mystic spray tan, so I'd say that is her primary/preferred method
for times when that is not her option of choice, she paints on other stuff and goop
well, maybe not too revealing after all . . .

yeah, the problem I have with mystic tan is if I do a level "3", parts of me are MUCH darker than other parts (and I do apply the blocker first). I usually have to go back for a second round to try to fix it. A level 2 is not enough. Every now and then they have a 2/1 sale, so I think I'm sitting on 4 sessions for the price of 2...hopefully they won't expire any time soon.
As for Pro Tan, I know I have some in my house somewhere. I *think* someone once told me that it has a lot of alcohol in it. I would never put it on my face. I have extremely sensitive skin, though, and there are very few products that won't give me either break outs or dry skin patches. I just forego the tan on the face and usually just the foundation and make-up covers up the fact that my face isn't tan.

I may on the search for pro-tan now as it sounds quite good. In the past I've used DSI tan and thats quite good. Just it's awful to get off.
