Jergens Natural Glow +Firming Self Tanner Body Lotion, Fair to Medium Skin Tone, Sunless Tanning Moisturizer with Collagen and Elastin. Helps to Visibly Reduce Cellulite, 7.5 Fl Oz

This stuff is great. Not orange or streaky at all. Very natural looking. Took about 3 days in a row to see a very noticeable difference. I got the light/medium because I wanted to play it safe. I would say unless you are very fair, go darker. I will definitely try the darker one when I'm finished with this tube. I can't really compare this to other self-tanners, as I haven't used any since way back in the day when they all smelled like chemicals, stained everything and turned you into a streaky Cheeto. But I will say, NO streaks, NO Cheeto-orange skin, NO staining of clothes, and NO stinky smell. Has sort of a light, beachy smell. Absorbs pretty quickly into skin so you can get dressed after a few minutes. Also makes skin feel very soft and smooth - and IS a little firming!

Every year around this time I have the same realization. It goes something like: “Wow, I am glowing… like printer paper.” I’m naturally pretty fair, and since I work from home and edit videos like a little cave goblin most days, the sun and I are not exactly best friends. I wanted a tiny bit of color without committing to a full self-tan ritual that involves mitts, exfoliating schedules, and praying I don’t look like a streaky pumpkin. Enter this Jergens Natural Glow +Firming lotion. I grabbed it because I wanted something lazy-girl simple. Like… slap it on after a shower and go live my life simple. And honestly? That’s exactly what this is. The first night I used it, I treated it like regular lotion. No ceremony. Just rubbed it in while watching YouTube and went to bed. No weird sticky feeling, no “don’t sit on anything white for 6 hours” panic. It dries like a normal moisturizer, which already puts it ahead of a lot of self tanners I’ve tried. By day two or three, I started noticing that “wait… did I go outside?” glow. Nothing dramatic. No fake tan line energy. Just a soft, believable warmth to my skin like I’d been on a weekend walk instead of glued to my desk chair. It builds slowly, which I actually prefer. You’re not waking up shocked at a new shade of yourself. It’s more like your skin quietly levels up overnight. The lotion itself feels nice too. Not greasy, not heavy. Just a solid everyday moisturizer. My legs especially felt smoother and less dry, which is a win even without the tan. Now about the “firming/cellulite” claims. I’m realistic. No lotion is out here performing wizardry. But I will say my skin looks a little smoother and more even overall. Maybe it’s the hydration, maybe it’s the subtle color helping blur things out. Either way, I’ll take it. The scent is light and clean. Not that classic self-tanner smell that sneaks up on you halfway through the day. Nobody at the grocery store is going to clock you as “recently marinated.” If there’s any catch, it’s just that you have to be consistent. Skip a few days and the glow slowly fades. But that’s kind of the point with a gradual tanner. For around $10, it’s honestly such an easy, low-effort way to look a little more alive and a little less “indoor plant.” Final thoughts: If you want a deep vacation tan, this isn’t it. But if you want a subtle, healthy glow with zero drama and the bonus of good hydration, this stuff is a staple. It’s basically my “fake I go outside” lotion, and I mean that in the best way possible.

I am a golfer and a runner and most of the time I spend outside I have socks and shoes on. As a result, my feet are very very white. I needed to attend a wedding and wanted to wear sandals and this product was recommended to me. I followed the instructions and used it several days in a row to build more of a tan, and it worked beautifully. I was not orange, and the color was not streaky. Instead, it was a natural tan that blended with my skin and my legs. Most surprisingly, I have always hated the smell of Jergens lotion. I was going to suffer through it just to use this product because I needed it. I was delighted to find that this lotion smells very nice. I have not done further research to find out if Jergens changed their scent on everything, but this was not the “old lady“ scent I remembered from my youth.

This is definitely a cult classic for a reason. Like most users I have tried many gradual self tanners over the years and this one is always my tried and true and the only one I have bought numerous times. I have probably purchased 20 bottles of this. I especially like it to extend the life of traditional self tanners. I like to apply a traditional self tanner on the weekend. Then, before bed I can apply this to extend it and give a more natural glow. There’s not too many down sides of the product other than I’m not a huge fan of the smell. I wouldn’t consider it moisturizing, but it does not dry you out. It fades relatively evenly. It doesn’t give you that desert skin like some other self tanners. I have never noticed any transfer to clothing, towels, or bedsheets. If I need to appear slightly tan, I can usually achieve a decent glow within three applications 12 hours apart. Some hacks I have learned over the years: •I am a light skin tone Fitzpatrick type II and I much prefer the medium to tan version. The fair one is too orange and not natural at all. • I use lotion on my ankles/knees/elbows/wrists/hands before applying. Then I just do a very light layer on those areas. That gives a really gradual tan on areas where you don’t want to be obviously orange. • saving and exfoliating before application really helps the application and developing process. • make sure to still moisturize with normal lotion to help extend the quality of the tan and decrease any uneven fading. Only giving it four stars for the smell and the misleading skin tone. If the fair version makes you orange, try the medium to dark skin tone version.

I got this okay. This product works well on your skin and you will get tan without being in the sun for long periods. It's expensive to buy but I like it to just get that glow on my skin that I need without going to the tanning places.

Fresh piece n value money

This is stunning and I put it over a spray tan to make it last even longer :0

Love this stuff does exactly what it says 🤗

Amazing i love it so much Don’t need to wait along time to dry

This is hands down the best self-tan I’ve ever tried. It doesn’t leave that unpleasant self-tan smell on your body. It has a really gorgeous scent. It produces a really natural colour gradually over 3-4 days which means it’s streak free as it builds up gradually. I hope they keep producing this for a long time as I’ll be using it forever 🤩
