Not saying fair skin people need a tan. I’m still fair skinned, even though I am outside often.
Nor am I calling for simply increasing exposure to sunlight.
All good things in moderation. There’s a balance to be found between adequate sun exposure and overexposure.
The best way is intermittent exposure. A little here and a little there. Hang out in the shade of trees in the heat of the day, out of direct light, but exposed to healthy amounts of ambient UV. Early and late hours of the day have lower UV levels as well. Just need to be more conscious about factors like that.
