If you put on faux tanning lotion will you still get color if you lay out in sun?

Yes, if you apply faux tanning lotion, you can still get some color from sun exposure. However, faux tanning products typically contain dihydroxyacetone (DHA), which reacts with the skin's surface to create a tan without UV exposure. It's important to use sunscreen when laying out in the sun, as the faux tan won't provide any protection from harmful UV rays.
