Jergens natural glow and first time self tanning?

I hope I put this in the right category (self tanning doesn't sound like skincare to me). Anyways, I've never self tanned before and I wanted to try a gradual tan instead of having a new color right away. Has anyone tried the jergens natural glow? Since I've never self tanned before, I'm really scared I'm going to end up with streaks or an uneven/unnatural looking tan. Any tips or recommendations?

The natural glow was really orange for me. In my opinion, it's better to splurge a bit on a self tanner because you really don't want to be stuck with a streaky orange mess lol. I use Bare Minerals Faux Tan Body from sephora. I think it was around $25, but it is so beautiful. Another bit of advice is to look for a tanner that comes out of the tube with a green tint, because if it's green then your tan will be a beautiful BRONZE and not orange.

I love Jergens Natural glow. It didn't leave a streaks or orange looking. The only tip I could give you is to make sure you exfoliate before applying (:

Well for me it was perfect and not orange at all. I just evenly apply it for a few days. It takes time so you can control how dark you get. The only tip I have is to wait before getting dressed a bit and to wash your hands.

I tried it and it was somewhat glittery in my opinion but didn't leave me orange, it gradually gave me a nice dark tan.

Yep, my daughter uses it to even out the tan she gets from track. She has no issues with it.
