Daily Tanning Lotions to the Test

Ok, it's time to get some color! I've tried a few of the popular brands, pictures of my color to come :)

Jergen's Daily Glow Moisturizer $4.99

Original product for tanning plus moisturizer in one! Works great actually, the only setback is the fragrance. The tan builds gradually as it claims!

Jergen's Express Daily Moisturizer $6.99

I would like to like this express version, but for some reason I developed a yellow tint and my friend developed an orange one. Fragrance is better than the daily version.

Aveeno Custom Color Daily Moisturizer $7.99

This version you can turn the dial to go from light to darker in seconds. This one worked ok, slightly yellow, but I didn't care for the smell.


Loreal Sublime Daily Glow $6.99

This one is as good as the Jergen's daily formula, but with added shimmer. It smells better, but my skin had a reaction to the sparkling ingredients.

Brow tips for different hair color...

If you are blonde, or have light eyebrows, there is something you can do to look more attractive instantly! Just darken your eyebrows slightly with an eyebrow pencil or powder. Makeup artists often will give their blonde celebrity clients a light-browed look for a daytime event and a dark-browed look for a dramatic evening look. Be sure to apply eyebrow pencil with soft, feathery strokes and use a shade in the blonde family to look natural.


Brunettes should have no trouble finding an eyebrow enhancer. Just remember to keep it soft, like a medium brown. Any darker is too severe, even for midnight-haired strands. Makeup artists tend to agree that girls with black hair usually look best with a dark brown brow enhancer rather than a black one, which could look too severe.


Red-haired, celebrity makeup artists often use an auburn eyebrow pencil on their red-haired clients during the daytime and a light brown eyebrow enhancer at night.
