Hey everyone! Been a while since I posted...my twins are keeping me quite busy! I was wonderiing: now that every major skincare line seems to be making a self-tan moisturizer (like the original Jergen's one), are there any that you have found to be better than others?

I have fair/medium skin tones, if that helps. Looking forward to heariing your thoughts...sorry if this is a repeat question!

I've been really wanting to hear reviews too. Am not sunning (never have much) at all this year...I have horrible sun spots all over my legs! Someone on another board raved about Hawaiian Tropics. I was wondering about the spray on by Neutrogena.

I make my own lotions & body butters so I didn't really want something I had to use everyday. It's been the only way I can keep the flaky skin away...using my own stuff!

Actually, I have been using this one, too, and it seems to work well. But when I started using it, it seemed there were not many out there, so I was just wondering if there were any that got even more rave reviews than this one. I thought I heard that the L'Oreal one was supposed to be made specifically for fairer skin tones.
 
is this for your face or body.

I've read in a magazine that Dove's energizer (or a name similar to that) is really good and will even out your skin tone.

Sorry...did I miss something? What brand are you referrring to?
 
I'm using Jergen's for medium skintones as well, and it seems to work great for me. Although I've heard people say they got streaky uneven results w/ it..L'Oreal is my no fail brand, they're very reputable for all of their products. I usually always end up going back to them.

Banana Boat's is also supposed to be good. Oh, I recently discovered the tanning towelettes from L'Oreal and they work really good. It's so much easier than trying to apply messy liquid tanner all over your face and trying to get it even.

 
Does anyone know about the fragrance of the L'Oreal version? I'm using Jergens right now and I'm loving the results, but my 8 yr old son says I stink LOL It's very much the typical tanner smell. I'm guessing that's from some ingredient used, I can't imagine they'd make it smell that way intentionally. I'd love to try something with a nicer fragrance.

There are a whole bunch of daily moisturizers that have "enhancers" that work to add that "glow" you want. I tried the Olay Quench and I'd have to say the moisturizer is good but the cream has that chemically tanner smell- so i'd have so say don't get it. My newspaper they did a review and the cheaper brands that ranked high were "L'oreal Sublime Glow Daily Moisturizer" and "Aveeno Continuous Radiance". A co-worker of mine has tried the Aveeno and seems to like it. Other brands that have this enhancing moisturizer are: Vaseline, Neutrogena, Nivea (it has that bad smell too), Kiehl's, Bananna Boat and a few more that I can't remember off the top of my head. Just head to the body cream section of your drug store and check it out!

 
I bought the Hawaiin Tropics & really like it. Odor is very slight & the color is great...not orange!

Try Chanel's one in Gold, sorry can't remeber the name.

it's the best slef-tan i'v ever used, doesn't look fake AT ALL.

no streaks nor flaking the color off like some drug store brands >.<

very moisturizing and the color looks very nice and subtle.

 
I use Garnier Bodysummer for the body and Clarins Eau Lactée Autobronzant for the face.

 
i have pale ghost skin .. and i realli like Dove <-- realli faint scent, unlike other lotions that makes u want to gag. Also dove doesnt require a lot of blending and it realli makes your tan look natural

Loreal Sublime bronze works realli fast and i use the light. gives even coverage and i dont get orange skin from it. yea!

 
I love the Jergen's Natural Glow. I used it in the beginning of spring and I really liked that it didn't change my skin color too dramatically.
