I’m addicted to tanning – trolls say I ‘look great for 53’, they’re stunned by my real age
A TANNING super fan, who trolls reckon looks ”53”, has left people stunned by her real age.
Camilla Sørensen, from Denmark, shared her addiction to tanning on TikTok, despite being brutally trolled by social media users who think her bronzed complexion has only added years to her appearance.
The blonde influencer regularly uploads content that highlights her deep tanned skin tone and shares her extensive tanning routine to her 29k followers on the platform.
However, one such video has taken her page by storm, after the gorgeous Dane admitted her confidence skyrockets when she’s sporting a rich tan.
In the now-viral clip, which has since racked up over an astronomical 17million views, Camilla said that her confidence was so high it’s ”bigger than you think”.
Meanwhile, in a different video, she joined a TikTok trend discussing addictions and revealed that one of her habits included assessing the sun’s UV level before committing to a tanning session outdoors.
The blonde-haired beauty has also proudly praised her ability to develop a gorgeous glow quickly, writing: ”When people tan all summer to get the tan I got in 2 days.”
To achieve the bronzed complexion, Camilla follows a strict tanning regimen, which includes set intervals of sun exposure followed by breaks.
According to the Dane, she will tan the front of her toned body for approximately 20 minutes, then focus on her bac for another 20, alternating with additional 15-minute sessions.
The extensive routine also includes refreshing dips in the pool and spritzes of salt water, before she resumes the sessions by tanning her back and front for an additional 15 minutes each.
In total, it’s estimated the blonde tans her curves for a staggering four hours each sessions, as reported by Mail Online.
However, whilst she may be all chuffed with her glow, the reaction online has been brutal, with many saying she looked older than her years.
Camilla was told she looked ”great for 53”, as some insisted she looked the same age as her father after posting a wholesome video of them dancing.
One meanie said: ”You look so old I would’ve thought u were dating.”
Despite her love for the bronzed glow, her extreme tanning habits have alarmed a number of concerned viewers, who warn the woman, 26, of skin cancer and premature ageing.
Advice for adults and children on sunscreen and sun safety in the UK and abroad
The experts at the NHS have warned that sunburn increases your risk of skin cancer.
They state that despite the common misconception, sunburn ”does not just happen on holiday”.
This means that you can burn in the UK, even on days when it’s cloudy.
”There’s no safe or healthy way to get a tan. A tan does not protect your skin from the sun’s harmful effects.”

”You have aged like 30 years,” remarked one TikTok user.
”Oh lord, the ageing,” penned another.
”Be careful of getting leather skin,” someone else warned.
”That just reminded me to reapply my sunscreen,” a beauty loved wrote.
Sun safety tips
Although this summer may be a cloudy one, you can still get sunburnt – which is why it’s essential to wear SPF every day no matter the weather.
The NHS advise to ”spend time in the shade when the sun is strongest”.
In the UK, this is between 11am and 3pm from March to October.
Make sure you:
- spend time in the shade between 11am and 3pm
- never burn
- cover up with suitable clothing and sunglasses
- take extra care with children
- use at least factor 30 sunscreen.
