Q&A(35)

Q: When the product states fair to medium, is this meaning your normal skin tone or the result of the tanning?

submitted by momma6 - 1 year ago
  • A: Hello! Thanks for asking - Using the formula customized for your natural skin tone will ensure the most natural-looking color. To find your natural skin tone, look at the inside (or underside) of your forearms, since these areas are not typically exposed to the sun. Another way to choose your formula is to refer to your favorite facial foundation color. If you typically use foundation colors that are fair or (light) medium (for example: Light Ivory, Ivory, Porcelain, Alabaster, Light Beige, Nude), then choose the JERGENS® Natural Glow Daily Moisturizer Fair to Medium Skin Tones formula. If you typically use foundation colors that are (darker) medium or tan (for example: Medium Beige, Tan, Caramel), then choose the JERGENS® Natural Glow Daily Moisturizer Medium to Deep Skin Tones formula.

Q: Does this come off in a chlorinated pool?

submitted by Becky - 4 years ago
  • A: Is it good to put it on your face?

    submitted bySuzy - 3 months ago
  • A: Hi Becky! If this is fully dried in to your skin, it will not come off in a pool. Hope this helps!

  • A: Hey Becky! Thanks for reaching out. Great question! Prolonged swimming and time spent in water can cause a sunless tan fade quicker. The best way to avoid fading, streakiness, and/or splotchiness from a pool is to apply your self tanner 2-3 days prior to being in the pool. A fully developed tan is more likely to fade evenly in the pool water. Be sure to thoroughly and evenly exfoliate the skin prior to applying the sunless tanner. And apply moisturizer daily after your tan has developed. Hope this helps!

  • A: Hi Claire, thank you for your question! It will depend on how often you apply the product and how much you use, but if used daily you should start to see color in as little as three days and a full shade darker in just one week.

Q: How long do you have to wait to dress after applying this natural glow moisturizer? Instructions say several minutes - but does that mean 3-5 minutes or 15 minutes or longer? Thanks!

submitted by Sophied21 - 5 years ago
  • A: Hi there! Thanks for sending a question. We recommend waiting about 5 minutes after application to get dressed. Ultimately, it comes down to the feeling after application - If things feel well absorbed after 5 minutes, you're likely okay to get dressed. If it feels like the moisturizer could set in or absorb a bit more, it would be best to wait about 5 more minutes. We hope this was helpful!

  • A: I mix this with my regular moisturizer (about 1/2 and 1/2). After I applying I set my timer for 10 minutes...that is usually enough time even to put on white pants. IF you live in more humid climates, I would add more time. Another thing I noticed...if you wear white pants, in the summer and sweat, you will get a tad on the inside of your pants. I live in Texas, so it gets hot here! 1 more tip, this is great to accelerate your tan if you have been in the sun. I use the same mixture (mixed with some lavender oil and sometimes aloe) after I have been on the beach or similar.

Q: Will this blend white areas with my natural tan areas? Example, my arms have natural tan, shoulders are white from wearing short sleeve shirts. Would like to even out.

submitted by MR - 1 month ago
  • A: Hi there, Yes, that would be a wonderful use for Jergens Natural Glow!

Q: If it fades in the pool, when you apply it again will it return to the full color it was before?

submitted by ConfusedCarrot - 2 months ago
  • A: Hi there! If your tan fades from chlorine and pro-longed water exposure in the pool, simply reapply it as you normally would. It may take a few applications over a couple of days to get back to your desired shade, just like when you first started using it. If you'd like to speed up the process, apply multiple times a day or switch to our Jergens Natural Glow Instant Sun Self Tanning Mousse for instant results! Hope this helps.

Q: I have extremely dry skin and will need to use this in addition to my normal body lotion. Will it still work? Also, my regular lotion contains AHA. Will this prevent the tan from developing?

submitted by ErinB - 2 months ago
  • A: Hi Erin, You can absolutely use this product alongside another body lotion. However, since AHAs work as a chemical exfoliant it will cause your tan to fade quicker than normal. On the brighter side, AHAs will also help your tan fade more evenly too. In order for you to still achieve your desired glow with our product, we would recommend you either select a deeper shade of our product, reapply multiple times a day, or graduate to our Instant Sun Sunless Tanning Mousse to achieve your initial tan and use the Jergens Natural Glow +Firming Daily Moisturizer to help maintain it alongside your AHA Lotion. We hope this helps!

Q: One answer said to exfoliate before use. Do you really need to exfoliate your entire body every time that you use it? Daily exfoliation seems excessive.

submitted by ErinB - 2 months ago
  • A: Hi Erin, We would recommend exfoliating 24 hours before using the Jergens Natural Glow +Firming Daily Moisturizer for the first time to give your skin a nice even canvas to work with. To maintain a flawless natural-looking tan and prevent patchiness, exfoliate 2-3 times a week using a gentle scrub or exfoliating gloves, focusing on areas like elbows, knees, and ankles. Exfoliating helps remove dead skin cells, ensuring a smooth and even application of the self-tanner and preventing color buildup. We hope this helps you glow girl!

Q: Even though this is meant for the body, is it ok to use in the face?

submitted by ConfusedCarrot - 2 months ago
  • A: Hi there, This product was designed for use on the body. If you're looking for flawless natural-looking color for your face, we'd recommend using Jergens Natural Glow Face Daily Moisturizers. Their formulas are specifically designed for use on facial skin and are perfect complements to the Body formulas. We hope this helps!
