SOAP BOX!

I know some people probably get tired of me talking about this issue but oh well.  Skin cancer has become a very important issue to me in more ways than one.  I have had friends who have lost loved ones due to skin cancer.  I have also had several issues with cancerous spots due to sun exposure.  I have probably paid more to my dermatologist than I have to Wesley Medical Center after having two kids!  I'm still paying on that derm bill by the way!  I am paying big time for all of those sunburns I got and all of those countless trips to the tanning bed.  My dermatologist told me that I would be coming back to have spots removed for the rest of my life as a result of all of my OVERexposure to the sun and tanning beds.  With that being said, I have grown to love sunless tanning products.  I have tried everything under the sun.....no pun intended.  Here are some of my favorite products.


This is what I am currently using.  It leaves a pretty shimmer to your skin.


Sprays are always great!


Got some of this from Sephora.  Great product!


LOVE CLINIQUE!


Another great product....Allure thinks so too!


I like the Neutrogena products too!

I am not trying to push my views about tanning beds on anyone.  Research does prove that your chances of developing melanoma or another type of skin cancer jumps by 60% to 75% if you tan twice a week!  YIKES!!  Doesn't sound worth it to me.  Simple fact is if you stick to using this



Stay out of this


You won't end up looking like this when you are 40



If you do worship the sun, go see this guy




Ok.....that is all :)
