People Are Using Coca Cola In A New/Dangerous Way
Please… Please… NEVER do this!

Apparently, the caramel color in the Coke helps bronze them up good and quick.
If you were thinking it's a terrible idea, that's because it is.
Coke contains a lot of chemicals, but none of them provide any SPF protection . . . so you're really just accelerating the chance of BURNING your skin and potentially even developing skin cancer down the line.
