Help a Pasty Girl Out…

Hi Friends….it’s that time a year again…the time when it is actually starting to get warm enough outside to show some skin! Now, being a redhead, I am naturally extremely pasty and white. I can’t lay out in the sun either (yuck, skin cancer!) so I rely on self tanners to help me not look like, you know, a ghost.

I’ve been using Jergens Natural Glow Face to give my face a little color and I really love it. It helps me not look washed out in pictures.
My favorite tanning remedy is go to a salon and have someone spray tan me…but that gets a little expensive and is really time consuming. So, I’ve been using Neutrogena Build-A-Tan on my body for a little glow. But I’m not sure how much I love Build-A-Tan. Does anyone have any self tanner recommendations that are not budget breaking? This pasty girl needs some help!

    I have been using the Jergens Natural Glow. I love being a little tanner. It was under $10 at Target. That's all I got.
