What would you recommend as a body prep so my Body Bronzer will look good. I have made my choose on which BB I will purchase, thank for that info.
Look forward to hearing from you.

Hi Jo,

First of all, thanks for stopping by my blog! You are right, Jada and Mary J. always have that gorgeous glowing skin when they step out in the public eye.

I happen to love a beautiful body glow and have written about how to achieve a gorgeous faux glow.  Check out this post about Alicia Keys.

In this “Fierce Friday” edition,  I recommended using St. Tropez Radiance Mousse$35

My first love is NARS Body Glow.

Monoi de Tahiti oil conjures the luxury and tradition of French Polynesia in Nars Body Glow. The bud of the tiare flower is soaked in the finest coconut oil and then blended for a translucent chocolate shimmer. $55 at Sephora.com

I have used this lovely body oil for years because of the subtle sheen it leaves on the skin and the decadent scent.

Since you mentioned Jada and Mary J., who invested with Carol’s Daughter,  I would be remiss not to mention Carol’s Daughter Gelee de Soleil SPF 15 Browning Oil.

Gelee de Soleil Browning Oil protects the skin from UVA and UVB rays as it deeply bronzes and hydrates for a long-lasting, sexy, summer tan. Delicious coconut and pineapple fragrance pamper your senses while exotic palm kernel oil, cocoa, shea, mango and avocado butters quench your skin.  $15 at Carolsdaughter.com

And if budget is a concern, you can always make your own bronzing lotion.  Mix a little loose bronzing powder with your body lotion and there you have it!

I hope these options help you out.
