Not advisable - risk of skin cancer later very high through daily tanning. Alternatively keep your exposure to the sun limited to the times the sun rays are not so powerful.

Briar Carwell's Edit:

You can, it's not recommended. Melanogenesis is the process in which your body reacts to the sun. During UV exposure, your skin's melanin production increases as your skin's natural defense against sunburn. Melanocytes produce melanin, which after sun exposure, darkens within about 24-48 hours. You want to give your body time to reach its peak melanin production because more melanin means a darker tan. For this reason, if you are tanning, it's recommended you go every other day. If you are trying to get a great tan, gradually build it. Don't be impatient. Stay hydrated and use a great moisturizing lotion without mineral oil, alcohol, or lanolin (which are awful for a tan) because properly hydrated/moisturized skin tans about 60% better. Lastly, avoid burning/over exposure, which can inhibit your tanning process, damage your skin, and put you at risk for skin cancer. I recommend using an spf 8-15 sunblock with non-nano particle zinc oxide while outdoors.

Is take one twice a day good grammar?

'Take one twice a day' is acceptable, though it feels a little clumsy. 'Take one twice each day' is perhaps better English.You could avoid the awkward feel of the phrase by adding a comma: 'Take one, twice a day' might do the trick.Or, if in doubt, you can always rephrase or alter a word. In this case, you could say, 'Take one twice-daily', or 'Take one, twice daily'; both would be fine provided you use either the dash or the comma.Rephrasing is frequently a good way to go and can save a great deal of time and thought, as can attention to the possibilities of punctuation.
