Since Spring is right around the corner, I thought we could talk about self tanners. I use 4 different types for different reasons.

Face: I apply this mist I at night after I have cleansed and applied my nighttime skincare products. It sprays evenly to give me an even color on my face. It does not transfer onto sheets, and when I wake up I have a healthy glow.

After exfoliating my body, I use these tanning drops. In the palm of my hand I put a pump of body lotion and add a few self tanning drops, rub my hands together and apply. I get even coverage (no blotchy spots) and I can control how dark I want to be with how many drops I use. I do this at night (it doesn’t transfer on my sheets) and in the morning I am tan. I use the shade Dark, and it works perfectly with my skin tone.

Once I achieve my desired color, to keep it and extend it for several days, I use this Jergens Wet Moisturizer. This is applied in the shower. When you are finished showering, remain in the shower and run your hands down your arms and legs to get excess water off. Then apply the moisturizer and pat to towel dry. Again, I’ve never had streaking or weird spots. It does not transfer onto sheets and just keeps my tan lasting longer.

The last tanning product I use body makeup. This is for the times I haven’t been self tanning, and need some color. I use this more on my legs than anywhere else. It doe not last and washes off with soap and water. I have it in the shade Medium and it’s a little too dark. To dilute the color a little, I will mix body moisturizer with it and the apply.

There are many “at home” anti aging devices available and I have tried quite a few. My favorite at home device is this LED Face Mask. I use it a few times a week in the mornings right when I wake up. I will lay in bed and put it on and sometimes fall back asleep…or listen to a podcast. I use it for red light therapy, and feel that texture my skin is smoother and more even. Like most things, you need to be consistent in order to see results.

Thanks for spending part of your day with me! Please feel free to ask me anything if you have questions about theses products. Enjoy your day!
