I'm extremely fair skinned! I would like to try natural tanning but I BURN! Any suggestions on tanning with fair skin?

Use a strong SPF lotion 25+ Don't just lay out on the sun, do some gardening, go for a walk. Laying in one spot and not moving with promote burning.

Some sunscreens are designed to help fair skinned people tan lightly without burning. I used niveas protect and bronze sun lotion last year and I loved the results. started to turn a nice brown colour which is strange for me because I always burn, peel and end up back pale again.

I have the same problem.. I would just burn, peel and go white. I started going to a solarium (using tanning beds).. Not as a permanent thing I only went about 3 times just to boost my skin in preparation for summer so I don't burn.. The sun bed didn't tan me however when I starting staying out in the sun I just gradually started to tan and NOT burn. That's what helped me but hey not everyone agrees with using a sun bed!
