Everyone looks better with a tan, right? Think again, ladies! Before soaking up those UVs, remember: Sometimes the tannest aren’t always the fairest, if you catch our drift. (After all, what’s wrong with digging some natural beauty, eh?)
But there’s a whole tanning spectrum in Tinseltown, and we’re counting down, starting with:
Dakota Fanning
We think Dakota is too busy hitting the books at NYU to work on her tan, but this fair-haired beauty should be staying out of the sun anyways!

Emma Stone
To get into her role as Gwen Stacy in the upcoming The Amazing Spider-Man, Emma has definitely embraced her inner tan — of the spray variety, that is! But au naturale, Em is a lighter shade of pale.

Kristen Stewart
KStew was always the fairest of them all — and her role as Snow White is no exception. Seriously, if you thought she was pale before, just wait till you see her as vampire Bella in Breaking Dawn: Part 2!

Jennifer Lawrence
Broaching our middle road is the lovely JLaw, whose sun-kissed skin was her calling card to play The Hunger Games’ Katniss.

Selena Gomez
Selena’s olive skin gives her a leg up, but her time on Spring Breakers certainly seemed like fun in the sun! (You know, when she could find time to escape the set in Mexico to chill with the Biebs.)

Lauren Conrad
Surprising no one, California girl LC and her golden glow are making an appearance on our list. But her tanning days are certainly different in a post-Laguna Beach realm!

Miley Cyrus
Miss Miley is always bronzed, all the time, so it doesn’t surprise us that she wants a sun-kissed glow to look super healthy. But maybe a tad less booth time would cement your fitness fixture status, Miles?

Kim Kardashian
No one loves a tanning booth like KK, who even admits that she has to wash off her spray tan when she goes a bit overboard!
WENN
JWoww
What, you just assumed we’d pick Snooki? Known for her infamous “triple tan” — that’s a trip through the powerful booths and then a spray tan — this tanaholic even has her own line of tanning products!
WENN
No matter what, love what skin you’re in! You only get one after all. Think any of these girls should tone it up or down on the tanning scale? And who else should we throw the Tanning Police onto?

They do need to put Snooki on here.
