Back in the day Carli and I had a serious tanning addiction. Tanning beds were all the rage and we went OFTEN. It’s probably the only regretful thing we’ve ever done, and we have the fine lines to prove it. Now when we want to get that “straight from the beach glow” we’ll reach for our self-tanners. Though the results of self-tanner are usually great, it can be SO time-consuming. You have to shower, exfoliate, apply, and wait 30+ minutes before getting dressed. We recently found a solution to this problem with JERGENS® Natural Glow® Wet Skin® Moisturizer. It adds virtually no time onto our morning routine and still gives a natural glow!

We’ve also started to incorporate the JERGENS® Natural Glow® FACE Daily Moisturizer into our skincare routine. It adds the slightest hint of color which is great for when your foundation is too dark and you want everything to blend together really naturally. It also contains SPF 20 and we HAVE to use SPF every day.

Both of these products are available at Walmart, which means low prices!

This time of year is known for weddings and vacations. We actually have two weddings to attend this summer AND two vacations. These JERGENS® products are perfect for you if you just want to build up some color before a special event!

So finally, here is our step-by-step easy self-tanning routine: 

1 | This step is optional but we find that the JERGENS® Natural Glow® Wet Skin Moisturizer looks the most natural when we exfoliate beforehand. To make things easy on yourself use an exfoliating body wash in the shower so that you don’t have to add another step onto your routine!

2 | When you get out of the shower DON’T dry off. This was weird for me to get used to, but it was actually easier than waiting to dry off BEFORE applying moisturizer. Right when you get out of the shower apply lotion to your dry areas like your elbows, knees, feet, etc. This will ensure that the right amount of product is soaked into the skin.

3| Now it’s time for the Wet Skin Moisturizer! You only need about a dime size amount for each part of your body. We usually start applying it to our legs and work our way up. Remember, this moisturizer is water activated so make sure your skin is damp. Once you have the JERGENS® Natural Glow® applied to your whole body pat dry with a towel and get dressed!

5 | Next up is your skincare routine. Just replace your daytime face moisturizer with the JERGENS® Natural Glow® FACE Daily Moisturizer for some added color! That’s it. No extra steps!

Seriously, how simple is this routine? You’ll see results starting the day after the first application! Once you reach your desired color make sure to scale back to using these products 1-2 times a week!

    I’ve tried the original Jergens natural glow product in high school but not the wet moisturizer. I might have to give it a try
