SUMMER DRESSES & THAT SUMMER GLOW.

I can’t believe that May is already here, can you? I swear time has been flying by and now it is time to go play outside and pull out the shorter dresses, skirts, and even shorts. Man, these legs of mine are a little bit scary to be pulling out the shorter dresses, shorts, etc. Don’t worry babes, I have searched high and low, tested out multiple different sunless tanning products and I have found my favorite. First though, I have had so many people ask me my favorite summer dresses and how to dress them up or down for running errands or for a night on the town. 

What you will need:
– Your favorite t shirt dress
– Sneakers
– Flats
– Heels

First, start with your dress. I love to find dresses that can be dressed up for church, a night on the town, etc., but also can be worn to run errands, chase King on the playground, etc. Lay the dress out on your bed or hang it up with no other clothing around. This will help you to visualize the dress and put different options with it. Next, grab your sneakers, flats, heels, etc. and place each one with the dress. I love to give myself multiple options so I can know what will match that dress if I am in a hurry. I also love to try out new pairings that sometimes make me a little bit nervous to push myself out of my comfort zone. Sometimes I buy notebooks and punch holes in the top of the paper and stick the paper with the shoe choices on the hanger so I can remember what pairings were my favorite. Wear that dress and rock it multiple ways babe! Let’s go over some of my favorite pairings and then talk about how to feel confident with a beautiful glow!

This dress is one of my favorites. I would have never paired this dress with these booties until I had it laying on my bed getting it ready for a shoot. This dress I also pair with my favorite pink heels for church on Sunday’s or when I need to dress it up more for any occasion.

These booties are my favorite because they can looked dressed down if I am wearing them while running to Walmart to grab more of my favorite JERGENS® Natural Glow® 3 Days to Glow™ Moisturizer & JERGENS® Natural Glow® FACE Daily Moisturizer with Sunscreen Broad Spectrum SPF 20 or they can looked dressed up enough to wear them to church or out on date night.
Sneakers are one of my favorite ways to dress my dresses down. I love that I can feel so put together but just threw on a dress and some sneakers. Plus dresses are so comfortable. This dress would be darling with some nude heels or with sneakers like worn here to chase your little one at the playground. 

Having a beautiful glow is something that helps me so much go feel a little bit more put together and more confident. I love that the JERGENS® Natural Glow products are things that I can do as a busy mom at home and know that they are going to turn out exactly how I am wanting them to. My favorite products like I mentioned above are the gradual glow moisturizer and the glow facial moisturizer. 

A few tips I have for you for when using them to achieve that beautiful flawless glow you are looking for is to exfoliate before use. I usually love to use them right after I am dry from the shower or after I wash my face really well. This helps your skin to really take in the product and for it to last a little bit longer. There are a few different skin tone colors you can choose from. I chose the fair to medium for my face because I don’t like my face to be as dark as my legs or the rest of my body and then I chose the medium to tan for my legs and the rest of my body because I like them to have a little bit more color and I have tried and tested each color to see what works best for me. If you are new to the JERGENS® products, I recommend trying out your exact skin tone color first and then deciding if you would like it darker or not. My body takes the sun a little bit better than my face too so I go with the medium to tan because my body is generally more tan than my face.

I absolutely love the gradual glow moisturizer. It is so easy to apply to my legs after exfoliating. I use it daily until I reach the shade I am looking for and then 1-2 times a week after that. I have never had any streaking or color problems with it. It truly is so quick and easy to put on and gives your legs the perfect glow to up your confidence in your dresses, skirts, and shorts. I always apply a regular moisturizer to my elbows, knees, and ankles (as well as any other dry spots I am having) before applying my gradual glow moisturizer to prevent them from being a different shade than the rest of my body. 

I love that I can rub it in and run out the door. There is no drying time, time to shower off, etc. It gradually brings a glow to your skin rather than having to wash it off later. It always looks so natural and let’s me be a busy mom without adding more to my to-do list.

The glow facial moisturizer is perfect for giving me that pretty glow that everyone is searching for in their face and a little bit of color so I don’t feel like I need as much blush or bronzer. I love that it has SPF in it for incidental sun exposure, but if I am going outside to play I always add on an additional sunscreen. Everyone is always worried about having stained hands and my favorite and easiest way to prevent that is to use the JERGENS® Natural Glow® Color Primer In-Shower Scrub. You can rub it on your hands, wash it off, and the color won’t be stained on your hands. It is perfection. 

You can find the JERGENS® Natural Glow products at your local Walmart stores. They are with the makeup and skin care aisles. XX
