What's the best moisturizer to apply after using a sunless tanner, or does it really matter? The sunless tanner I'm planning to use is the from Jergens;D |

It does matter because most sunless tanners are notorious for drying the skin out. This leads to two dreaded conditions: "alligator skin" after the initial sunless tanner dries on your skin, and the "leopard skin" look as it starts to fade and wear away. It is the way they are formulated that makes them so drying to the skin.
The best thing you can do is find a sunless tanner that moisturizes the skin at the same time. This will make the tan last longer, and as it does eventually fade, it goes away even and smoothly. Plus, a sunless tanner of this type could be good for you skin at the same time.

They have the right idea going on with that product, especially when using jojoba oil and olive oil in the ingredients. However, the petrolatum and silicones are probably a couple of ingredients that most people either want to avoid, or will not like due to the greasy feeling on the skin. But, it could be one worth trying.
