We have the winners of our Estée Lauder gift bags: Johnell McNees and Connie Riddell won products from the label’s new Bronze Goddess collection.
We received some great tips on sunless tanning.
Riddell says she has tried Mary Kay and always uses plastic gloves because the color “ruins your nails. I started with a scrub — then moisturize, then rub the product around in circles — not straight up and down.”
McNees favors Bare Escentuals Faux Tan and Jergens Natural Glow, an affordable pick from several readers. Jergens is “great for daily use,” she said, “and your tan seems more gradual and natural.”

While I grew up in small-town Kentucky I’ve always been fascinated with the cosmopolitan world of high fashion. On the other hand, I love a bargain and the thrill of shopping for just the right piece.
I have a degree in English from the University of Kentucky, and since 2002 I’ve written a column for the Lexington Herald-Leader about shopping, beauty and fashion. During that time I’ve interviewed everyone from designers to boutique owners about trends and style. And I’m still forever searching for the next big sale.
