Our favorite self tanner for an instant glow is now just $10: ' I saw a difference the next day'
After a long, cold winter, there's nothing better than pulling out the sun dresses and sandals at the first hint of spring. But after a winter devoid of sunshine and vitamin D, you might notice that your skin isn't exactly glowing and vibrant. All of those months layered up in leggings, long johns and thermal socks has slowly worn away whatever dregs of a tan you had remaining from last summer's vacation.

If this sounds familiar, know that you're not alone. Every March, at the first sign of spring, I eagerly pull out my favorite spring dresses to wear without tights, only to notice that my pale legs need a little TLC of their own. My secret for getting a quick glow instantly? I've been using Jergens Natural Glow + Firming lotion since I was in high school, and it's never let me down in my time of need.
This hydrating lotion is formulated with collagen, elastin and green tea infusions for an "anti-cellulite formula" that will reduce the appearance of cellulite and make skin appear tighter and firmer in a week.
Whether you're hoping for a hint of color before ditching tights for the first time this year, or you just want a touch of color before going on your first beach getaway of the season, this firming self-tanning lotion is the secret weapon you need in your beauty cabinet.
Like most self-tanning lotions, it's formulated to give you a gradual glow over time. Apply after showering and thoroughly exfoliating away dead and dry skin, taking special care around areas like elbows, knees and ankles. Thoroughly wash your hands after applying, and let the lotion begin to do its work!
What makes this self-tanner unique is that it's made with collagen, elastin and green tea infusions for an "anti-cellulite formula" that will reduce the appearance of cellulite and make skin appear tighter and firmer in a week.
Several reviewers like me swear by this self tanner for a quick touch of color when they need it.
"I am a colorless white woman in her late 60's. Even sitting in the sun in the summer doesn't help, I am still too white!" said one reviewer. "This product works great. I could tell a little difference even after one day."
"I get many compliments," said another reviewer. "People are always asking me- did you go tanning? Nope- that’s my lotion!"
Many reviewers specifically recommend this tanning lotion for beginners or those who are cautious about at-home self tanners.
"This was my first time using any self tanning product so I would say it's beginner friendly for sure," said one first-time user. "It says to use sparingly on knees, elbows, and ankles so I did that and I never saw any weird spots. It also says to wash your hands after applying which I did and never had stained hands."
