ooh, ouch ... I tan indoors ... and I gave up anything with benzoyl peroxide a looong time ago ... the 2 do NOT mix ... your skin will be sooo tender ....
if you feel you MUST tan ... take a think dark towel and place it over your face ... only expose your face to the UV for 1 minute, 2 tops ... you will burn really, really easy ...
I am not lecturing, I love having a tan, i don't take it overboard and I am very careful ... but many products will make you burn, BAD ... benzoyl peroxide and Retin A are 2 of the worst ...
tanning alone can help acne, but you will burn and irritate the skin and, typically, cause more acne if you combine a medication with it ...
