Avoid the Tanning Tax! 25 Alternatives to Indoor Tanning.

Get in the Glow with Jergens and Jane Krakowski.

Tis the season to remember just how important sunscreen is. I know it is very important on a daily basis, but this is a great reminder to take extra care this time of year. What a better way to get our glow on than with a self-tanner like Jergens Natural Glow.


To get the word out about the importance of sunscreen, Jane Krakowski (of 30 ROCK fame) has teamed up with Jergens to create a video that includes her tips on how to get a healthy glow as well as admitting to some of her poor sun choices in the past.  Starting TODAY until the end of summer, when you view the video from Jergens and Jane below, will donate $1 to The Skin Cancer Foundation.

Self-Tanning in Preperation for a Winter Vacation.

As you read this, I am on a jet plane on my way to the very south of Florida. I cannot tell you how much I need this vacation. The alone time away with my husband and warm weather is something I am definitely looking forward to.

In the last few days up until my winter vacation, I have been doing some major skin prep, which includes exfoliating and self-tanning. We know how bad tanning beds are for us even though this is how I would prep in the "old days". But like I said, these days it is all about self-tanning and with so many great self-tanners on the market, there is no good reason not to give them a try when going after a beautiful golden glow.

For my face, I am using a combination of Bella Bronze Golden Chamomile & Goats Milk Self-Tanner* for the face & body, on my face. Of course, I am using bronzer, and the one I use is specifically for bronzing and self-tanning. Remember Mally Beauty Bronze Genius Self-Tanning Bronzing Powder? I love it, and it is what I am depending on to keep my face looking golden right now.
