Tinted Moisturizer



Have any of you used a tinted moisturizer before? I have and just never followed through with putting it on.

I started using the Vaseline Healty Body Glow lotion on Sunday morning. I had a little trial size bottle and decided, why the heck not, I'm not getting any darker?!

Well this morning was my second application and before I even put any on, I could tell that I had a little glow to my skin. I put another coat on this morning and I look just a tad glowier (yes, that is a word, well in my language it is anyways).

I have to say, when I have tried these lotions before, I usually just could not stand the smell. This one is not 100% better. I didn't notice it much yesterday, probably because we were out and about and with the humidity, anything outside smelled!

Today, sitting in my cubicle, I can smell it a bit more, but not enough to make me want to vomit!

I do want to try the Jergens Natural Glow. The girl on the morning show I was listening to was raving about it and saying it didn't smell much (I think she HAD to plug it, but she DID use it and I think she really liked it! I'm naive...I know!).

I don't know why, but tanning in the sun isn't all too appealing to me anymore, so if I can get a little glow without making my skin wrinkley and cancerous, well then, heck yeah! :-)

Oh and on another note, R and I recorded ourselves last night with the camera. He was playing the guitar and I was pretending to sing (with a real song on). It was so hysterical, I was crying laughing so hard! I would probably post it and make a fool of myself, but my better half may or may not be hiding the camera from me...ha! Just kidding, he opted not to post it...it is quite funny though!

I agree about the smell...it's an odd smell, but i think it's a smell that only YOU can smell. I HATE it. If you find one that doesn't have that odor..let me know!!!

I have Nieva tinted/firming moisturizer and the smell is coconuty...I actually like it. Best that I've smelled. But be careful with these tinted moisturizers....they work great BUT they were make you turn orange where you have dry skin...I would recommend only using it every other day.
