Get that sun kissed look

If I only knew then what I know now.

How many times have you thought that? The older I get, the more I seem to look back and see how foolish that I was (I suppose in 10 or 20 years that I’ll do the same when I read some of my posts).

If I COULD go back and change what I did, the few things that I’d start with are…

1. Never START drinking soda (I’m an addict)

2. Always remove my makeup before going to sleep (lazy)

3. Not sit out in the sun ALL summer long with baby oil, baking and getting bronze (it looked GREAT then, not so much now).

Of those THREE, I’ve actually stopped doing #3. The Florida sun is just too hot and the spots come out within minutes of my sitting there. I used to bronze, now I burn. But, I still LOVE that “healthy” look of having sat out in the sun soaking in the rays. So, what do I do now?

I FAKE IT.

This season, I’ve been using Borghese’s bronzing products to give me the LOOK and GLOW that I want. From my face to my toes I can still be a bronze goddess (ok, so I’m stretching it a little with the “goddess” comment) that I was when I was 18 or 19 without increasing my risk of skin cancer, wrinkles and those awful spots that are like connect the dots across my lower cheek and jawline.

The products that I used in this video can all be found at Borghese.com or at your local department store that carries Borghese products. The prices are fair and the bronzers really do add a nice glow.
