Tanning Help!

This might seem like a weird “help request” blog but I am the whitest person ever and all I want is a slight tan for this summer!  I am going away to Jamaica with my boyfriend for five days in July and, although it’s super sunny there, I am gonna have to wear insane amounts of sunscreen so I don’t burn! 

So I thought I’d do the smart thing and try to tan up before we leave.  I’m a bit nervous about tanning beds, so how do those tanning lotions work?  I probably won’t want a really dark tanning lotion because it will look a bit weird on my pale features, but a more subtle tan would be great.  What’s the best tanning lotion  out on the market right now?  Can I find them in a regular pharmacy or do I go to a specialty store for this kind of thing?  Also, I don’t know if this exists but can you get the tanning lotions that have SPF in them?  That way I can use it out on the Island too!  I just want one picture of me in a bikini on the beach without looking like a ghost!  Thanks for the help!
