Want Beautiful Brown Skin?

I was looking for a product to get a little color without any damage to my skin. I tried a few products but none of them looked natural to me.After I found Jergens Natural Glow Daily Moisturizer,I decided that Jergens is the one!
After a few hours, the result amazed me. It gave my skin that sun-kiss.
I used Jergens Natural Glow Daily Moisturizer Medium Skin Tones-7.5 Fl. oz. squeeze tube. I noticed my skin had a slight glow.It was very natural brown, soft and healthy.In three days I looked as if I tanned for three days straight.The first three days after, I didn't need to use it every day.
Warnings:
It's easy to apply. But I recommend that you wear gloves while applying this product to avoid darker palms. Also It work better after the shower.Let your skin dry a while before using. After you applied your body, don't forget to rub a little bit of tanner on the back of your hands.
This product doesn't contain any tape of SPF sunscreen. If you are in the sun, you will need to apply some.

Jergens Natural Glow also has face moisturizer. But it made no difference in my skin color.Next time I will try medium/tan skin tone. I love wearing white after tanning. But unfortunately this product stains on clothes.
Buttom Line:
I think Jergens Natural Glow Body Moisturizer is a great self tanning product. But if your skin is very dry you might need for a second moisturizer.
It works! Gives skin a natural brown looking. Smells better than first time I bought. Enjoy your brown skin!

Let's Celebrate!!!

My computer is finally fixed!! I didn't want to take it to BestBuy or Staples and pay too much money for this old computer to get fixed. Lol, it is not the good time for me to buy a new one either. So, I waited for someone who gives a better price. And I'm back!!!
Not only my computer feels better but also so do I:)
I got the good news yesterday and my son said 'mom, lets make chocolate chip muffins and celebrate'. Of course I got the message..It has been a while I haven't made chocolate chip muffins which they are his favorite. While I was mixing dry ingredients, he helped me to mix the rest of them. He got the first bite and said 'mom, I'm glad your computer is back' :-)

2 large eggs
1 cup sugar
1 cup low fat milk
1 cup oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon vanilla
3 cups of flour
1/2 cup chocolate chips
