Jergens Natural Glow Firming Daily Moisturizer Medium to Tan Skin Tones 7 5oz

This bundle is a great deal! I am very fair and I do not like to sit in the sun. I first tried the dark to deep hoping to accelerate color. My color came out nice, but a little orangish. A little tanning smell when applying, but NOTHING the next day and nothing after showering. I then tried the light version and wow! I met my tanning soulmate. The color came out a very pretty light brownish, with a subtle glow. This also stays nicely for 2 showers and then I needed to apply again. This is a white lotion, so no color guide BUT this tanner is very hard to get wrong. I use a 2 tanning mits and a tanning back wiper and this lotion is so forgiveable my color comes out nicely- not streaky at all. When I used the deeper shade, I could tell where I applied a little too much, much it was easy to fix with some glycolic acid on a cotton pad. Also, during the summer I do not use any moisturizers or soaps with acids (lactic, aha, bha, glycolic, azealic etc.) because they will exfoliate your tan off- BUT if you make a boo-boo you can use them to buff down an over zealous patch. I use perlier honey gel and philosophy pure grace in the shower, and for lotion I use perlier honey or philosophy pure grace. Then I follow this with Vaseline bronze shine on my décolleté , legs and arms for a mature glowy touch - it looks great! Not like I fell into sparkles… Anyway, pick the color that best fits where you are now. I am glad I took a step down from the deep to the light . My faux tan came out much more realistic. This is also very hard to ‘mess up’ compared to stronger tanners like st tropez. I do use the st tropez 1 hr express occasionally on top of the jergens for a little oomph and it comes out really pretty—— especially when I follow it up with the Vaseline bronze glowing lotion!

This stuff is great. Not orange or streaky at all. Very natural looking. Took about 3 days in a row to see a very noticeable difference. I got the light/medium because I wanted to play it safe. I would say unless you are very fair, go darker. I will definitely try the darker one when I'm finished with this tube. I can't really compare this to other self-tanners, as I haven't used any since way back in the day when they all smelled like chemicals, stained everything and turned you into a streaky Cheeto. But I will say, NO streaks, NO Cheeto-orange skin, NO staining of clothes, and NO stinky smell. Has sort of a light, beachy smell. Absorbs pretty quickly into skin so you can get dressed after a few minutes. Also makes skin feel very soft and smooth - and IS a little firming! Read more

As a young adult who has never used proper self tanner mousse/spray tans/anything of that realm, I wanted to use a gradual lotion first. After about 3 separate times of use, I can say this is a great temporary self tanner lotion for beginners and fellow extremely pale girlies. I am super duper pale in the winter, so I used the light to medium and after ONE use I will be very noticeably tan, so be warned about that. Here are some recommended steps I learned after using this a few times: 1. Exfoliate in the shower with a scrub or loofah ALL OVER. Everywhere that you want to tan with the lotion. Shave your legs or anywhere you like to remove your hair that you will be putting the tanner lotion on. 2. After drying off, use a really hydrating body lotion/moisturizer with minimal to no scent ALL over really well without leaving any dry spots. The lotion itself really doesn’t smell that strong, but for some reason when mixed with strongly scented body lotions it is an extremely strong unpleasant smell. 3. Let your regular body moisturizer dry a bit before putting on the tanner lotion everywhere with a tanning mitt, making sure there are no dry spots and that you equally put the same amount on each arm/leg etc. TIPS: use a fluffy makeup brush to apply the tanner to your hands, wrists, fingers, feet, ankles, elbows, and toes so that there is a nice blend. NOTE, these areas tend to pick up extra tanner lotion which can come out darker. I recommend you don’t focus on these areas when you are applying the tanner to your whole body, and then at the end put a little product on the brush and blend the areas I mentioned above. 4. I shower at night and do all these steps usually before bed and when I wake up in the morning it’s usually settled quite well. I don’t shower until later in the day again and it looks quite dark. Once I shower it’s reduced a bit and will keep color for 5-6 days! I really like it but there can certainly be user error quite easily if you don’t moisturize or blend a certain spot well. There is absolutely no transfer on clothing or bedding and I have white sheets. If you’re not totally pale but don’t want to be very dark from the medium to dark tanner, use it once every two or three days twice a week. Warning tho, im pretty pale and one time every two weeks ish is more than fine for me. Picture is from the first time I did it where my arms were really tan but I didn’t use a brush to blend my wrist and fingers, where you can see my natural skin tone. Read more

Jergens Natural Glow + Firming Self Tanner Body Lotion has been a great addition to a skincare routine, especially when looking for a gradual, sunless tan with the bonus of some skin firming benefits. The lotion goes on smoothly and absorbs quickly without feeling greasy, which is a big plus. The scent is subtle and pleasant, not overpowering like some self-tanners. After using it consistently, there is a noticeable, natural-looking tan that develops over a few days, avoiding the dreaded orange tint.The firming aspect seems to make the skin feel a bit more toned, and there is a slight reduction in the appearance of cellulite over a few weeks. For those who have fair to medium skin, the color blends well and doesn’t leave streaks if applied evenly. It’s easy to use and doesn’t transfer onto clothing once dry. Overall, it’s a reliable product for anyone wanting a sun-kissed look and smoother skin without the risks of sun exposure. The price is also reasonable, especially considering how long the tube lasts and the results delivered. Would definitely recommend it for an easy, affordable glow and firmer skin! Read more
