The skin is a living thing, the outer layer is constantly dieing and flaking off, while a new layer is growing right underneath. As more and more of the "old" tanned/sunburned layer gets replaced with new skin, the tan/burn will fade.

Unless you stay in the sun of course, in which case the new skin will tan/burn as it appears too.
