Here is the deal, you will all appreciate this, I have been planning on doing a tanning must-have interview with Jillian Barberie. She always has a great bronze color and she is a fellow Valley Mom! So, why not? Therefore I asked Jillian a few weeks ago if she would be interested in doing the interview!
Since I haven't heard back from her in a while and then today she dedicated a show to tanning must-haves (only 18 days after I asked her to come up with them) I decided to fill all of you in on them!Ps ... great idea she did on the GDLA show, I wonder who came up with it? Oh, right ... me! Ugh.
These are copies of messages between Jiilian Barberie and I ...
My initial message and question:
"TheValleyMom: Would u ever consider doing a 5 quest + answer via email w/ me about ur top 5 tan secrets 4 thevalleymom.com? Esp since u r a valley mom? ;)
Jillian's responses:
"askjillian
"I woul love to share my must haves. I can list them here on Twitter if that's convenient!"
askjillian

"TheValleyMom: That would be perfect I would absolutely luv it! My readers would luv it! If u can't get it all in DM u can email 2 TheValleyMom@gmail.com."

"askjillian: At work today..... Hope eveyone had a happy and safe 4th!!!! How many of u have today off too? I'm showing tanning must haves on GDLA"
Laura Mercier
- face illuminator/tinted face products: VM's rating- I LOVE THIS PRODUCT! All of Laura Mercier's products are truly fabulous! The tinted products are great and work great without leaving you looking like makeup is caked on! It helps give you the all over tint you need! Plus it's silky, so your face feel soft! It's a great moisturizer and I have the driest of dry skin! I still prefer powder bronzer, but if you like a wet facial moisturizing bronzer ... this is definitely the one! 
Lindsay Lohan's "Sevin Nyne
" - Self Tanner: VM's rating- Not my fave. The spray isn't bad ... but there is definitely better out there. The smell is pretty good, but just as most self tanners on the shelf, you end up smelling sweaty because that's what happens when you clog your pores of self tanner. (I am used to it by now). And the gel is fine if you like gel ... I personally can't stand tanning gels. They are way too sticky and don't dry fast enough. I like tanning lotions, sprays and foams. Hate gels! Yuck, sticky! I have had a few friends tell me they like this product. This duo is $35 for both at Sephora if you want to give it a whirl! Otherwise I would suggest Victoria's Secret duo of tanning lotion and spray that lasts longer and is still cheaper - $24 for both! ;)
St. Tropez - Bronzing Mousse
: VM's review: I like this product. I's different! It's a nice texture, light, airy and easy to put on! If you are a beginner at self tanning, this would be a great product for you to try! If you are extremely pale, this is also a nice product. Although it looks dark, it's actually quite light compared to my favorites. If you click above to purchase, it's $3 cheaper on my link than at Sephora! ;) 
Sun
or Sun Very Dark
- Self Tanner: VM's Review - I liked this product. YOU NEED TO WEAR GLOVES! It stains your hands! It's a very nice product and two of my loyal readers, Averi F. and Brandy P.both swear by this product! Thus ... I tried it! If I didn't fall in love with Beautisol
, then I would probably love Sun more! It's a fantastic self tanner, smells nice, goes on smooth, not streaky, big bottle, inexpensive and easy to find at stores! I bought mine for $23.99 at the Beauty Supply store in the El Camino Shopping Center on Mulholland next to Vons. But if you click the link above to buy it, it's only $17! I suggest everyone try it! ;)
