White spring outfits – but what about your skin?

With spring in full swing and summer around the corner, you can’t help but notice all the adorable, crisp white fashions popping up everywhere.  Finally, the sun is out and we don’t have to cover up anymore! Here are some from White House|Black Market that we LOVE!

This little white top has just enough of a subtle ruffle to be feminine but not overdone!

A white pencil skirt is a super way to cheer up your wardrobe. You probably already have tops and shoes that will match so you will be good to go with just one piece!

So, after a winter full of long sleeves and long pants, what do you do when your skin is just as glaring white as your new clothes? Many of you have asked us what to do. We say, get a glow – in a healthy way, of course!  There are so many tanning products out there that help, but here are two that we can recommend.

For a subtle tan, try a product that is super easy to use, like Coppertone Endless Summer Sunless Gradual Tan Lotion.  You just smooth this on every morning and night and your skin gradually darkens (FYI, it does takes a few days to really see the results!).

Can’t wait to wear white and need a quick tan?  You can use a self-tanner like Neutrogena Sheer Bodytint for an instant, temporary tan.

These products are all on super sale over at Drugstore.com… not to mention free shipping!

Don’t forget these little tips for suntan success:

  • All self-tanners recommend exfoliating the skin first.
  • After your all buff, do not use any lotion.
  • Pick up some rubber nurses gloves to put on the tanner. That way your hands won’t turn orange!
  • Make sure the color is totally dry and developed and then rinse off before putting on your white top, though…if you put clothes on before the mousse or lotion dries, you will have brown stains on the inside of your clothes!

Now you can go out and feel Fabulous After 40!
