GLOW tanning towelettes for quick fix Spring Break tanning

Hello Gorgeous!  
Spring Break full of cold beach weather? Don't worry-get your tan on before you to with GLOW tanning towelettes which sell for about $5.99 and can be found at Walgreens or online at www.drugstore.com

To apply is really simple, just pull one from the package and rub on in small circles. BE CAREFUL to watch and note where you apply because it goes on colorless and you won't find a mistake until it dries in 3-4 hours. These are great for a quick fix, and easy packing, and the price is good too!

I used both colors and the darkest package ( as seen on the left) gave me the most 'tan' looking effect.
This is a great product for those of you who want a light hint of tan instead of a bold bronze look.

Beauty Bloggers Spill Their Anti-Aging Secrets

It's never too early to start preserving your assets. See how these beauty bloggers do it

This is a TotalBeauty.com anti-aging skin care article From putting down that cigarette to making annual appointments with a dermatologist, there are plenty of ways you can start slowing down the aging process. We got insider tips from beauty bloggers around the country, who shared their secrets for staying gorgeous at every age. Get their secrets now

Hello Gorgeous!
Do you want to protect your skin and get a tan? I've been playing with my sample of Jergens natural GLOW and proect which is recommended by the Skin Cancer Foundation as being safe for daily use because it has a dual spectrum spf 20.

What I like about it is that it smells good. Most self tanners have a very distinct smell about them-but not this one, it's light and floral.

I use gloves when applying to avoid any colored palms. It smoothes on easily, does take a bit to dry-but then again I could have put too much on?

I am using the medium to tan skin tone-even though my natural body shade is doughy white. If it's working for me, it just may work for you! About $8 at mass retailers such as Target and Walmart.

How to self tan at home to save time and money: best airbrush self tanners for Spring Break!

Trend Alert: Messy Braids

Ditch the boring, over-and-under braid from grade school and try one of these easy-to-copy messy plaits

This is a TotalBeauty.com hairstyles article Just as pagers evolved into smart phones that talk back to you, braids, too, have received a major upgrade from our schoolgirl-pigtail-wearing days. See how the hottest celebs are wearing the trend on the red carpet and off with these unique new styles. See braids

Now that you have the perfect swimsuit picked out for your best summer ever-what about your tan?

You need the sun to help absorb vitamin D into your body but too much sun can bring skin health challenges.

So how do you get a great golden bronze tan without harming your skin with too much sun or tanning bed use?

Simple-pick a spray tan-and best of all, one you can do in the privacy of your own home to help save time and money.

Self tanners have come along way and the DHA (dihydroxyacetone) has improved also for giving a better bronze tone on the skin. If the scent of DHA bothers you, be sure and select a product with 'odor wrappers' like Be Bronze Pageant Perfect.

This airbrush tan in a can is what is used at the Miss America pageants and the ladies look amazing onstage which means you can too.


Spring Break followed by Memorial Day weekend the official start of summer means you need to start planning your tan now.

There are 3 easy steps to getting a great self tan at home:

1. Exfoliate your skin really well and be sure and keep the skin oil free so the self tanner will stick. Use a loofah brush or gloves in a small circular pattern all over your body where you will be applying the spray tan and pay careful attention to elbows, knees, ankles and heels where the tan tends to absorb faster into folds of the skin.

2. Moisturize with a water based oil free moisturizer and let it dry on the skin. Now the skin is ready to be tanned.

3. Time to tan: start at the bottom with your feet and work your way up so there will not be any creasing in the tan from bending over to reach your toes.
The extra benefit of using an at home can of airbrush tanning spray is that they work upside down so you can tan the hard to reach places on your back.

Be sure and place a towel or newspaper down on the floor to stand on so any over spray will not tan your bathroom. If you are using a creme or gel self tanner, keep paper towels close by to wipe up any spills.

If you are using a spray tanner-wear gloves, similar to the kind used for hair color or medical purposes to keep your fingers and palms clean until you tan the backs of hands and thumbs last. The gloves also work well for applying gel or cream self tanners.

Some of my favorite self tanner brands are:
Be Bronze Pageant Perfect available online $25.00
Fake Bake Airbrush Tanning spray available at Sephora $25.00
Jergens Natural Glow tanning cream available at Target or Walmart $10.00

Plan a 30 minute tan session at home to allow yourself time to set up, prepare the skin, tan, and clean up. This extra planning saves you time in a trip to the salon, money on the cost of an individual tanning session and also gives you the advantage of privacy and cleanliness of your own home.

Good luck and enjoy the safe way to tan!
