Achieving a natural-looking tan at home is made easier with Jergens Natural Glow body lotions. The key to a flawless, sun-kissed complexion lies in selecting the correct formula for your unique skin tone. To determine your natural skin tone, it's recommended to examine the inside or underside of your forearms, as these areas are less exposed to the sun and thus provide a more accurate representation. You can then refer to the color charts available on the product packaging, choosing a shade whose "STARTING POINT" color most closely matches your natural skin tone. Alternatively, you can select a formula based on your favorite facial foundation color.
Some users may find that after initially using a lighter shade, switching to a darker shade yields positive results. It's important to note that this product is specifically designed for application on the body. After applying Jergens Natural Glow Daily Moisturiser, allow several minutes for it to dry completely before getting dressed to prevent transfer.
How to Use Jergens Natural Glow Daily Moisturiser
Jergens Natural Glow Daily Moisturiser can be used in conjunction with other lotions. For instance, you might choose to layer it with Jergens Ultra Healing Extra Dry Skin Moisturiser or Jergens Shea Butter Deep Conditioning Moisturiser. The flexibility of the Jergens Natural Glow line allows for mixing and matching with any Jergens Skincare products to create a personalized routine.
The skin on areas like elbows and knees tends to be drier and has more layers of skin cells. Since the chemical reactions that lead to skin darkening occur in the surface layers of the skin, the color can sometimes concentrate in these drier areas. To address this, simply apply it after using Jergens Natural Glow Daily Moisturiser.
It is crucial to understand that Jergens Natural Glow Daily Moisturiser does not contain sunscreen and therefore will not protect against sunburn. However, specialized products like Jergens Natural Glow +PROTECT Daily Moisturiser Sunscreens and Jergens Natural Glow FACE Daily Moisturiser Sunscreens are formulated to offer protection from daily sun exposure while simultaneously delivering a naturally glowing color.
Understanding Color Development
The development of color can vary from person to person. If you notice an orange hue, this is likely due to overuse of the product. In such cases, trying a lighter shade formula or reducing the amount of product applied can help correct the color. For optimal results, Jergens Natural Glow Daily Moisturisers should be applied to freshly cleansed and exfoliated skin. It is advisable to allow approximately 4 hours between application and exercise, swimming, or showering.
Regarding the desired darkness, after one week of daily use, your skin should achieve about one shade darker. To maintain this color and ensure an even skin tone, continue to use the product daily or every other day. Jergens Natural Glow Daily Moisturiser works by gradually darkening only the very top layers of your skin. As these top layers naturally exfoliate to reveal new skin cells, your skin color will naturally reach a plateau, preventing excessive darkening.
It is generally not necessary to use Jergens Natural Glow Daily Moisturiser more than once or twice a day. However, if you wish to achieve a darker color more quickly, you may apply it a few times each day, keeping in mind that individual results will vary.
Year-Round Use and Seasonal Adjustments
Jergens Natural Glow Daily Moisturisers can be used all year round. During winter months, you might find it beneficial to opt for a one-shade lighter formula or use your usual summer shade every other day instead of daily. This adjustment helps maintain a consistent and natural-looking tan throughout the year.

To ensure the most natural-looking color, it is essential to use the formula customized for your natural skin tone. Reconfirming your natural skin tone by looking at the inside of your forearms, which are less sun-exposed, is a reliable method. Cross-reference this with the color charts on the product packaging to select the "STARTING POINT" color that best matches your skin. As an alternative, consider your favorite facial foundation color as a guide for choosing the appropriate Jergens Natural Glow formula.
