  Who needs sissy sticker tattoos when you've got the sun to do the job, right? Right! Take a permanent marker and draw anything you want (your initials, a peace sign, a spider) on your arms, legs, even your belly! (Don't worry, you'll be using rubbing alcohol or nail polish remover to take it off later.) Let the marker dry and then slather on sunscreen as usual over it and the rest of your exposed skin. Now go out and play in the sun all day!   When you come in for supper, go straight to the bathroom and use cotton balls and rubbing alcohol to clean off the marker. What's left? A tan-less tattoo of whatever you drew!   If you spend a lot of time in the sun, you'll tan right over the tattoo in no time. If you want to keep it, just fill it in with the marker before you go out and clean it off the same way at the end of the day.
