Jergens Natural Glow Express

Wednesday, March 5th, 2008 at 9:03 am

Ladies I’m back for the weekly new product review and this time I bring you the brand new Jergens Natural Glow Express. I’m sure you are all familiar with the Jergens Natural Glow Daily Moisturizer that has just a hint of “buildable” coverage, but takes about a week or so to see any color. Well this is their express version and let me tell you it really is quite fast.

I have pale legs and most self tanners leave me not only with the streaks, but with a severe orange glow which is just not attractive in any way I don’t care what Lindsay Lohan thinks. I’ve been using this product for a week and I’ve used it like a regular daily lotion and so far so good. It says that you get a full shade of color in 3 days, but I had a full shade in two. I over applied it because I was impatient and I’m just like that.

I will say that if your pale like me you have to go with the lightest version which is for medium skin tones and don’t apply it every day after 3 days. I would apply it once a day for 3 days and then apply as needed otherwise you will start to get orangey.

Bottom line is for me it’s the perfect self tanner that doesn’t leave me streaky AT ALL and didn’t give me the Lohan look. As for the smell? Well all self tanners have a certain smell and if I’m comparing then I would say Jergens is one of the least offensive, but it doesn’t exactly smell like roses.

Have any suggestions for next weeks product review feel free to email me and I’ll be your guinea pig. :)

Cost: $7.49

St. Ives Swiss Formula Invigorating Scrub

Wednesday, March 5th, 2008 at 9:03 am

St. Ives

St. Ives Swiss Formula Invigorating Scrub is such perfect for exfoliating. The little exfoliating beads are big enough to really make my skin feel renewed after a good scrub, but it’s not so harsh that it irritates me. I’ve had problems with exfoliating body washes before because sometimes they just feel too rough, but I definitely don’t have that problem with this one. It doesn’t leave my skin dried out at all.
Plus, I love the smell! I have been using this product for the last 5+ years of my life and there is no way I would ever switch to another body wash! It’s inexpensive as well. You can buy it here for just $4.50.

John Frieda Sheer Blond Shampoo And Conditioner

Wednesday, March 5th, 2008 at 9:03 am

John Frieda

I don’t really put much stock in shampoos and conditioners made specifically for one color hair. But one day my stylist convinced me to try John Frieda Sheer Blond Shampoo and Conditioner and now I’m hooked! I definitely noticed that my color did seem just a little bit brighter, and on top of that I loved how soft my locks felt after using it.

It’s for natural or color treated/highlighted hair so doesn’t matter how you got your blond, you can use it either way :) You can buy it according to your shade of blond as well (Honey to Caramel or Champagne to Platinum). You can buy a 4 pack the shampoo, conditioner and travel shampoo and conditioner here.
