i always do. its bad for your eyes if you dont.
THats weird that they give you dark circles though. They should make your eyes lighter.

Try putting a good vitamin E cream especially for eyes on right after you tan. Or, cover your head with a towel.

no fake-n-bake for me. I go out into the sun, when it comes out here, and work outside. that gives me my tan

I dont wear em, just close your eyes. I dont want racoon eyes or a stripe along the side of my face.

Im really just looking for people that DONT wear the protective glasses and all was well.

And in my defense, i dont wear pink shirts or have long hair. I just hate being pasty white.

According to a female friend of mine who worked at a video rental place that had tanning beds (never understood that one), your eye lids don't tan and not wearing the goggles is very bad for your eyes. I guess the eye lid is not thick enough to stop the UV light.
