 My Favorite Jul 17, 2007
I've been experimenting with self-tanners all year, and I think I can safely declare this one the winner. It's fair to say that any self tanner is subject to the limitations and/or variations of one's skin, so 5 different people using the same lotion may end up with 5 different results. Without question, it's a pain to go through the process of elimination. I believe I've bought and thrown away several varieties of self tanners, frustrated with either the color, the streaking and/or the uneven fading. But if you're as pale and bruised as I am (thanks to my Irish background and my playful Boston Terrier), eventually finding a tanner that gives one some healthy color is worth the aggravation.
Unlike the others I have tried ~ both expensive and drug store brands ~ Jergens Natural Glow provides a natural color, one that prompts people to ask me, "Did you go on vacation?" I'm a gardener so my forearms tan naturally, and I used that color to judge my self tanners, doing my best to try and match the rest of my body with my golden brown arms. While many tanners do offer some pretty deep color, either the color is too "self-tanner-ish," too dark (which looks silly on me) or it fades unevenly despite consistent efforts to exfoliate and moisturize. I had NONE of these problems with Jergens. The color development was gradual and healthy-looking, streaking has never been a problem, and it fades like a natural tan.
I haven't found the smell to be as offensive as regular self tanners, probably due to the fact that the lotion is made for a more gradual color development. Don't get me wrong...there is a faint odor, but on me it doesn't produce that wretched smell for which self tanners are well known. I still wouldn't march around in public with it slathered on, as sweat and any self tanner do not make for a pleasant fragrance. Like other tanning lotions, it's probably best to use it overnight, sleeping in designated "tanning" clothes you don't mind throwing in the laundry frequently.
Exfoliation and moisturizing with another lotion is important. While Jergen's gives me great color, it's not much of a moisturizer. I'd stick with the body butters. :o) Application can be done with bare hands, something I couldn't do with full strength tanners, but be sure to wash your hands well. Fortunately, because the tan is so gradual, you'll be able to see where too little and/or too much has been applied before it becomes comically obvious. Continue to go easy on the knees and elbows. Heck, I just skip those altogether since I'm not interested in a super deep tan, just the "glow." Doing this matches my knees and developing color nicely.
It's clear each person has to do his or her own experiments in the search for a self tanner that works for them, but I highly recommend adding Jergens Natural Glow to your list of lotions to try. Good luck!

I LOVE IT, BUT THERE ARE TRICKS Mar 12, 2007
I love it. I never wear less than a 45 sunscreen and this makes me look so tan. The trick is that you have to completely exfoliate your skin with a good scrub before using to remove all the dry skin that causes the blotching and streaking. Put it on evenly and allow to dry. Use it every day. I don't use it on my face, I didn't like the results. Moisturize between applications with a plain moisturizer to keep the skin smooth. Better than ruining your skin out in the sun and aging!

 Happy with the color- but it's stinky! Dec 31, 2006
I've got an olive complexion. Twice I have tried self-tanning lotions and they haven't done anything at all. This lotion was on sale at my local drug store so I figured I might as well give it a try. I was encouraged by the fact that it said it was for "meduim/tan" skin.
By day 4, I looked like I had spent some time out in the sun and I was happy with the shade. It was a deep bronze- not orange or fake looking.
The pros: it is cheap compared to a lot of stuff, safer than laying in a tanning booth, and pretty effective
The cons: this stuff smells horrible. If you are sensitive to chemical-type smells, beware. Also, be careful to apply it smoothly. I neglected some areas on the top of my feet and now I am working to make the splotchy areas of color even out. I would not recommend using this on your face if you have oily skin because it will almost definitely make you break out. There is a separate lotion that they make for your face that is supposed to be oil-free (haven't tried it yet).
All in all, I will continue using this. It is cheaper and safer than going to the tanning bed. But I am looking for an equally effective, less smelly alternative.

Not bad, not amazing Jul 10, 2006
I'm not a self-tanner aficionado, but I think this is a decent tanner, especially for the price. Perhaps it should be noted that I have ULTRA light skin, and so I guess I was "cheating" by buying a tanner for medium skin.
Since my legs are neon-white, even in the summer, I don't know if this tan is comparable to a "natural" tan (since my legs don't naturally tan!) That being said, the downsides:
1. Although I don't apply the cream with rocket-scientist-like accuracy, I try to apply evenly, yet I see some parts which look darker than others, like the front of my ankle, my knee cap.
2. The color seems slightly orangey to me. I stress the word "slightly". However, if you're going for ultra-natural, this might not be for you.
Maybe I should've bought the tanner for light skin. In any event, I continue to use the lotion. It's a good experimental tool for a first-time self-tanner (or I guess, self-tannee).

Best tanner I've ever used May 15, 2006
I have fair skin during the winter but I started using the Medium Tan after I was on vacation and had aquired a tan. This worked great and not fake at all. I have gotten lots of complements and turned a lot of people on to it. The only thing that keeps me from giving it a 5 rating is that it does not moisturize quite as well as the other Jergens lotions.
