Re: self tanner and foundation ?

  • I put self tanner on my face.  I always apply it at night before I go to bed.  Usually, once I get some color, I am able to reduce the amount of foundation I use.

    I wouldn't get a darker foundation, unless it's making your face a lot lighter than your neck/chest.  I'd just find something that's more sheer, or use a tinted moisturizer. 

  • I've used that Sephora spray i told u about lightly on my face to blend w my neck and stuff. In the past before i discovered the spray, i just use my tinted moisterizer (laura mercier) and bronzing powder (also laura mercier).

  • ahhh, late to the post, i know.  but yeah, I use self tanner (jergans) at night sometimes if i'm feeling pasty.  But generally don't go darker with the foundation....since it's not a drastic difference.

    Altho, does anyone else hate the smell?  I know I can't be the only one  Huh?

     i scrubb & scrub in the shower in the morning, but sometimes i can still get a wiff of it....during the day

    LOL - sometimes if i use it at night, i'll warn bill b4 bed & tell him that i "went tanning" so he doesn't think that's just my stink!!
