7 Worst Self-Tanners
Guest's Rating & Review
I saw a 'warming up' of my skin color (naturally very light with yellow undertones) within 10 minutes after the first application of Jergens Natural Glow Express Body Moisturizer. The effect was similar to that of putting on a slightly darker foundation. The tinted product dried in just a few minutes and produced full, warm and natural (not orange) color after three applications. Results lasted about three days and weren't dramatic, but I didn't want to go from white to brown instantly [nor did I want] streaks, missed spots, or worse, tan hands. I exfoliated before applying and yes, had [uneven] areas, but they weren't bad. (Also, the DHA smell was barely noticeable, if at all.)

Not Good!
Oh my goodness, this one is pretty bad. I took a shower as I normally do before I apply self tanner. I applied the light/medium color all over my body and sat around naked for about an hour before I went to bed expecting a nice glowing color as I usually get from other self tanners. Well, I was totally unhappy of what I found the next morning. My knees, top of my toes, ankels, and the top of my ha...read morends were orange! My inner arms were very streaky, and the color was definitely turned out darker than a light/medium is supposed to. I just wanted to scrub my whole body to get it off! I sat in the bathtub with a scrubbing buffer and soap and scrubbed for about 20 minutes and it wouldn't come off! I'm giving it a 2 for staying power but this is not one you want to buy. Tried it, done with it! I suggest choosing another brand. I have posted a few that I liked, that didn't turn out like this one. The express power is not worth it.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 5 of 7 people said helpful

I am in love with this product.
GREAT product, I've used the medium version. It definitely makes you tan quickly! Yes, there can be a very very slightly orange tint, and yes, it can streak . However, this can be remedied by applying a layer or two of the regular Jergens over it the next day, to even out the color. Overall, I feel that this product looks pretty natural, smells alright, and is better than damaging my skin! I love this product and will continue using it.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 6 of 10 people said helpful

Excellent for the face!
I actually did not use this on my body, but rather the face. I switched from this to the Jergens Healthy Glow Face w/SPF 20, and at first I was in love, but alas, it didn't last long! This one gives COLOR, which is exactly what I wanted. I have used the medium/tan version and it is just perfect. Definitely give it a try! Jergens doesn't make bad gradual tanners at all and there is almost always a coupon. :)This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 2 of 4 people said helpful
