The condition is called Tinea Versicolor, and it sux. I have two white spots about the size of my thumb on both of my cheeks, in the same spot, that don't tan. Got it about 18 months ago. It is kinda weird how its in the same spot. It only comes out when I got tanning in the beds/booths. I have no idea how I could have gotten it, its not like the bed touches my face.
I just started tanning again after a year off, and one spot is barely there, the other one is still there, which basically means i can't tan unless I want to look like fuckin Michael Jackson or somethin.
