A lil' Something for Sensitive Skin: Coppertone UltraGuard Continuous Spray SPF 70

My skin has been through a lot and I have been so rough on it that if it was sensitive... well let's just say it's not sensitive anymore. However, I know there are plenty of people who have sensitive skin and just a dab of the wrong moisturizer can cause one to break out in a rash.

So I have search far and wide, read many reviews to find something a sunblock that would be suitable for those who have sensitive skin... (especially if you're planning on going a vacation near the equator soon).

Here is a review by njchicaa from Viewpoints.com:

Coppertone UltraGuard Continuous Spray SPF 70 — My husband has delicate Irish skin and chose not to go tanning before we headed off to Mexico on our vacation. I knew I needed to bring some serious sunblock along for him so I bought two cans of Coppertone UltraGuard Continuous Spray SPF 70.

This is a broad-spectrum sunblock that is very easy to use: you simply press the top to dispense an even layer of spray onto your skin. You don't even have to rub it into skin because it absorbs so quickly. You can spray this product while holding the can at any angle which is helpful because you can cover areas like your upper back and the backs of your arms without asking anyone for assistance.

I was extremely impressed with Coppertone UltraGuard Continuous Spray SPF 70. We were diligent about applying it religiously to my husband's skin and he never once had to deal with burned skin. I also used it my very first day on the island to protect my Italian skin and I developed some nice color without burning. The problem with this spray sunblock, like all others, is the fact that it truly does "stick" to skin and is very difficult to wash off of skin. My husband and I had to help each other scrub it off of our backs with a mesh sponge because it simply isn't the kind of product that will just rinse away.

Still, Coppertone UltraGuard Continuous Spray SPF 70 did an excellent job of protecting lily-white skin from burning in tropical sunshine. I can deal with the whole showering difficulty issue when I know that it is so effective in protecting skin. I will definitely buy this product again at the start of the summer so my husband can use it again during our days at the beach and in the pool. Recommended!

Jergens Natural Glow... But how natural is it?

Jergens Natural Glow is probably the cheapest self tanners out there but is it worth it?

I have used Jergens Natural Glow before and I do not favor the results. However, it does work... that is if you want to look orange!

I can never seem to find the perfect median with this product, either I don't see any results or too much results! And on top of things it makes me break out and after a couple days of using this product the color starts to fade off leaving blotchy bronze spots all over my face and body (this is the worse!). And I'm left looking like a sick person and everyone is avoiding me. UGH!

However, I do believe this is a great product for those who have pale white skin and looking to bronze. I recomend that you use a small amount at a time. Mixing this product with your skin tone may not make you look orange, and instead give you a nice bronze. But if you have a tendency to break out, then this might not be for you. As for people who have an olive skin tone like I do, I highly recommend to stay away from this product!

So what should people with olive skin tone do? Well stick around cause in my next couple blogs I'll tell you some of the best bronzers I've used just to the get that perfect color!

It's Tanning Season!

It's that time of year again, when the sun starts peaking out and the weather starts getting warmer. So how do you get a nice beautiful tan without the skin damage? That has always been my biggest question. If only they could make a product that allowed you to have that nice tan without the bad consequences. So the solution... self-tanners!

But which ones work and which ones don't? Do they last? All these questions!!!

Have no fear! My reviews are here! In the next coming days I'll be reviewing some self tanning lotions, gels, and sprays.

If you have you're own reviews please feel free to add it to! Until then, enjoy the beautiful weather!
