Hi everyone 🙂 This summer we have some vacations and other things planned and a big change we are preparing for this fall (will fill you in later), so my summer postings might be a bit sporadic at times. In the meantime of this week with no “crafting”, I wanted to share something fabulous I discovered:
{Jergens Natural Glow Foaming Daily Moisturizer & Physicians Formula Shimmer Strips}
I figured out how I can look tan from a bottle (or can?). I have tried other rub on lotions and all, but this foam stuff is the absolute best! Everyone keeps telling me I have my Florida tan, but I know it’s not from being out in the sun! You see, we are a very fair skinned family and the sun is strong in FL. We lather on sunscreen like crazy, not really seeing much tan going on. (I also like the shade a lot more when it’s 100+ degrees outside.) I use the foam almost daily on my body and I use Physicians Forumla bronzer on my face. I have very sensitive skin, especially on my face, and this is one thing that doesn’t seem to effect it that much. I also love the mixture of shades it has. It makes the tan look very natural. Now, I know the bottle says 25 uses, but I used my first bottle of this stuff for 2 months (maybe that’s because I only put it on places that would show if I had my bathing suit on) and I have never had a problem with streaking. But, you have to make sure you rub it on evenly and use just enough. Nevertheless, I figured I would share my success and love with these products.

June 24, 2010 at 3:30 pmI’ve used this product as well and was very impressed, lately I have been using L’oreal Sublime Bronze. (As a matter of fact, I just put some on! lol) It’s a lotion, but it’s tinted so you seen where it is applied, even has a slight shimmer to it, my favorite part!

June 24, 2010 at 3:44 pmDo you have to “Sit and let it dry” for a long period or time?

June 24, 2010 at 3:51 pmForgot to mention about that, you can put your clothes on immediately and it doesn’t come off! I heart it.

June 24, 2010 at 9:56 pmI’ll have to try that… the lotion never looks quite right. How’s the smell?

June 24, 2010 at 10:45 pmSmell is a big deal to me too… tempted to try it, but not if I’m going to stink for days afterwards! lol 🙂 I love bronzer too, I will have to look into that one. I need to replace mine, it feels like I’ve had it forever. Does the bronzer have SPF?
Happy Together says
June 25, 2010 at 11:18 amOkay, the smell isn’t bad at all. I had to wait until I tried it again this morning because I never paid attention to it! It has a light smell, but once it’s been on a few minutes, you have to put your skin right up to your nose to be able to smell it. I personally don’t find it to be a bad/stinky smell.
The bronzer does not have sunscreen in it. I use a foundation that does, so that takes care of that problem.

June 25, 2010 at 12:09 pmThanks for the tips! I’m super pale but run a lot and am always looking for something to even out my pale/slightly less pale tan lines. 🙂
