Welcome to Tanning 101.

Summer is right around the corner and I’m walking you through everything Peta Jane — from gradual tanners to mousses to mists to face tanner. If you’ve ever wanted that golden goddess glow but didn’t know where to start… this is your sign.

Today’s lesson: what each tanner does and who it’s for.
Next up? I’m teaching you exactly how I use every single one.

Consider this your official self-tan syllabus. ✨

Okay these new DIBS Cool Blush Cheek Stains are GOOD. 🤍

I tested all four shades today and I’m officially obsessed. They give more of that soft, sun-kissed flush than a heavy blush look, which I personally love. It’s natural, buildable, and a little goes a long way.

Bonus: you can use them on your lips too (we love a multi-use moment). If you’re into effortless, “your skin but better” color… these are it.

Monday makeup and we’re trying something completely new 🤍✨

This week’s experiment was all Jones Road Beauty and when I tell you I was impressed… I was impressed.

Here’s everything I used:

• What The Foundation in Beige – This surprised me the most. It feels more like a skin tint than a traditional foundation. It looks almost mousse-like in the pot, you kind of paint it on, and it blends into your skin so seamlessly. Lightweight, buildable, light-to-medium coverage, and it truly looks like your skin.

• Miracle Balm in Dusty Rose – Used this on my cheeks and lips. You can also use it as bronzer or blush. It gives that effortless glow and ties everything together in the prettiest way.

• The Best Blush in Rosy – The perfect soft, sun-kissed flush.

• The Mascara – She mascara’d. Did exactly what she needed to do. 👏

This is very much a no-makeup makeup look and it feels so fresh on the skin. Huge thank you to Jones Road Beauty for sending this over first impression? I’m a fan.

This has officially become my “I don’t feel like dragging out the big vacuum” vacuum 😅

I picked up the Shark Freestyle Max Cordless Upright from HSN during their sale and it’s been perfect for quick kitchen + living room resets. It’s cordless (huge win), really lightweight, and I love that the LED lights actually show what’s on the floor so I’m not missing anything.

It works on carpet and hard floors and is just easy to grab when you need a fast clean instead of a full deep-clean moment.

HSN has some really good deals happening right now, so I linked this vacuum plus a few other sale finds here for you guys 🤍

HSN is having SO many good sales right now and I found such a great deal on this Shark Freestyle Max Cordless Upright Vacuum 🙌🏼

It’s cordless (no dragging cords around 🙌🏼), lightweight under 7 lbs, works on carpet + hard floors, and even has LED headlights so you can actually see the dust and pet hair hiding everywhere. It also has two brushroll speeds and an easy-empty dust cup, which makes it perfect for quick everyday cleanups.

I linked this Shark vacuum from @HSN and @Shark, plus a few other really good sale finds, in my LTK 🤍

It took me 4 days to get this golden goddess level tan ✨ and I did it the lazy girl way.

Peta Jane’s Gradual Body Tanner is THAT girl. It goes on like a lotion (not sticky 🙌), builds night after night, and leaves you with the prettiest, streak-free glow. No drama. No orange. Just smooth, bronzed skin.

If you’re new to self-tanning or just don’t feel like doing the whole routine… this is the one. 🤎

Monday makeup redo ✨
I was chasing that bright, glowy, dewy look last week and… it did not hit 😅
So we’re back this week, trying again, experimenting a little, and I think I finally nailed it.
Even threw on some eyeshadow (which never happens 👀) and honestly? Kinda loved it.

If you love a dewy, glowy, fresh-faced look ✨ this one is a must. e.l.f. Halo Glow Skin Tint goes on like a lightweight serum, feels so comfortable on the skin, and gives that effortless “your skin but better” vibe. It has SPF, it’s water-resistant for up to 80 minutes, and the shade range is so good with warm, neutral, and cool tones. I’ve been using this since launch and I’m still obsessed 💫

On-Repeat Saturday ✨ these are the things I kept reaching for this week. A skin tint, a mascara, a setting powder, and my lip combo of the week that I shared yesterday 💄 some new, some not so new, all very loved.

Hey thin-lip besties 💋
This combo is officially Thin Lip Bestie Approved.

The precision of the NYX Cosmetics Lip Lingerie Lip Stain in Barely There makes lining and shaping thin lips SO easy no stress, no overthinking. Then layering it with the NYX Jelly Gloss (Honey It’s Jelly) gives that full-bodied, juicy shine that instantly makes lips look glossier and fuller.

Easy to apply. Comfortable to wear. And yes… we’re approving this one. ✔️

Thin-lip besties, trust me on this 💕

Okay but THIS gift set 😍💄
The @plouise Protect Your Pout set is next-level. You’re getting 10 lip balms total 5 tinted + 5 glitter conditioning and they are SO silky on the lips. Perfect for throwing one in every bag, every drawer, everywhere.
Thin lip besties, these are smoothing, comfy, and just feel good on the lips💕

Spring bedding a little early because I needed a refresh 🌿 Swapped out the duvet, updated the throw pillows, and finally grabbed the Dreamer blanket in the extra-large size because it is so soft I couldn’t not. Figured if I was doing one thing, I might as well do the whole bed. Cozy now, spring vibes later 🤍

#LTKvlog #LTKHome #LTKOver40

No better time to start thinking about a glow ✨ If you’re a lazy-girl tanner or just want something super low effort, this is one of my favorites. I’ve been using @Petajanebeauty Gradual Self-Tanner and it’s literally a lotion you apply at night that slowly builds the prettiest, most natural tan. No streaks, no stress, no guessing. It’s especially perfect if you’re new to self-tanning or just want an easy, everyday glow 🤎

Monday makeup means trying something new 💄✨
I was going for a super glowy look today and decided to test out Revolutions Powder Pops… and y’all 😳 it set my face way more matte than I expected. Not mad about it, just a pleasant surprise. This is exactly why Mondays are for experimenting around here.

On Repeat ✨
These are the beauty products I couldn’t stop reaching for this week. I’ve got an under-eye corrector that’s doing the most, a lip combo I’ve been loving, and a primer that doubles as a highlighter (yes please). Two from @DIBS Beauty , one from Drmtlgy all hits, no skips.

Do you layer your blush? Because I cannot stop layering Twilight Berry with Coral Infusion lately 🍓🌞 It creates the prettiest sun-kissed flush, and honestly… Maybelline needs to make this an official shade because it’s THAT good.

If I’m wearing foundation, it’s this one 🤍
Tarte’s Timeless Hydrating Foundation is my ride-or-die because it actually looks good on skin over 40. It evens everything out without getting cakey or settling into fine lines and wrinkles. And yes… my shade (29N) is finally back in stock 🙌

Monday errands but make it cute 💄✨
Getting ready to run around and do boring stuff… which obviously means doing my makeup anyway. Trying a blush trick I’ve been loving lately, wearing my new favorite lip, and using some of my go-to @DIBS Beauty favorites because why not 💋💕

I may have found my new favorite tubing mascara 🤍 This is Persona’s volumizing tubing mascara in brown and it seriously surprised me. Tons of volume, great length, easy to build, zero clumps or flakes. Brown mascara girlies, this one is so good ✨

Under-eye glaze? I’ll do you one better 👀✨ Maybelline’s Lifter Concealer is a serum concealer that brightens, smooths, and hydrates all at once. Lightweight, easy to blend, and perfect for tired under-eyes that still want coverage. This one’s a win 💕

Thin lip besties, this one’s for us 👀💋
This blur filler is officially my new BFF. The applicator makes it so easy to apply, it goes on super smooth, and the matte finish feels velvety on the lips without being drying. It blurs, defines, and gives that soft-focus lip look I’m always chasing especially on thinner lips.

On-repeat ✨ these are the three things I kept reaching for this week. A go-to lip combo, a mascara I’ve been loving, and an eye + cheek palette with a little hack you need to know about. Simple, easy, and actually getting used which is the whole point of this series.

These are the cutest little flameless candles 🌸 I’ve been getting so many questions about them, so here they are. They’re sphere candles with the prettiest floral detail, come in a few color options, and yes — they have a remote with a timer.

#LTKHome #LTKSeasonal

Hanging out today and finally doing a little decorating. I’m putting together some flower arrangements, chatting, and slowly making this house feel more like home. I’ve lived here long enough… it’s time 😂

DIBS really did it with these minis. The Love Beam Perfecter is that soft, pearly glow use it as a highlighter, primer, or mixed into foundation and it just works. And the Duo Stick in Starlit? Still one of my all-time favorite blush + bronzer combos. The fact that these dropped in mini form is honestly dangerous because they’re way too cute.

This is one of Tarte’s newest blushes and I am obsessed. The Macaron Blush & Glow Duo is a dual-sided blush with both a cream and a powder, and the formula is just unreal. I’m wearing the shade Toasted Coconut and it gives the perfect just-got-back-from-vacay glow. It applies so beautifully, blends like a dream, and gives the prettiest finish. This one is so good.

If you’ve been stuck trying to decide between Harmony and Motivate, this one’s for you. I’m showing both shades side by side so you can really see the difference and figure out which works best for your skin tone. These bronzing sticks make contouring so easy — especially if you’ve got a round face like me and want a little extra definition without overthinking it.

Found these rechargeable spotlights on Amazon and I’m officially obsessed. They hold a charge forever (I only charge them about once a week) and add the perfect cozy, chill vibe to any space. I keep moving them around my house because they just work everywhere. Such a simple way to add ambiance.
