Hey babes! I hope your week is off to a great start. It's officially spring [ hello sunshine and hot temps ] and we all know what that means - tank tops, and shorts, and swimsuits, oh my! Spring and summer can do number on our confidence. There are so many filtered and curated false images out there to make us question whether we are enough, and start to feel a serious lack of confidence.
Today I'm sharing my top 5 ways to renew your confidence this spring! These are my personal aids in fighting off the temptation to doubt my own value, and boost my confidence.
Read on for some tips and tricks to help you renew your confidence this spring, and make room for more joy!
Start Your Morning Strong
Feeling healthy and energetic is an instant confidence booster. Start your morning strong with a healthy breakfast. Make a smoothie bowl, drink some water, or munch on some greens! When our bodies are nourished properly we feel a heck of a lot better! Am I right or am I right!?
One of my favorite ways to get a boost in the morning is to make a mixed berry and spinach smoothie with orange, lemon, and tart cherry juice or a delicious coffee infused smoothie!

Get A Natural Glow ( Without Baking In The Sun )
Natural glowing skin is a great confidence booster for spring! I have always had very fair skin, and worked to protect it from the damaging effects of the sun. The easiest way to get that natural sun kissed glow, without exposing your skin to potential fine lines and sun damage, is to use a sunless tanner. We all know how easy it is to start to look like an oompa loompa.. rolled in cheeto dust.
So, finding the right sunless tanner is key! Especially if you're very fair. My favorite tried and true sunless tanner is the JERGENS® Natural Glow® Wet Skin Moisturizer and Natural Glow® Instant Sun® Sunless Tanning Mousse. They are a fair skinned girls dream!
The Natural Glow® Wet Skin Moisturizer and Natural Glow® Instant Sun® Sunless Tanning Mousse are my go-to for adding just a touch of color to my skin for spring! You can gradually glow or instantly tan with these products and I love that. I personally opt for the gradual glow so I don't shock my friends. Ha!
My Instant Sun® Glowing Skin Routine:
Cleanse & Exfoliate skin
Apply Sunless Tanner
Let tanner dry completely
Enjoy perfectly glowing skin!
How simple is that! These sunless tanners are so easy to use. For the most natural looking color, be sure to exfoliate your skin. It is the key to success!
The Wet Skin Moisturizer is just as easy to use. Simply apply on wet skin immediately after showing!
Towel dry as normal - this is key to achieving a streak free glow
Apply Wet Skin Moisturizer as you would any other moisturizer
Enjoy a subtle, gradual glow!
Using both the Natural Glow® Wet Skin Moisturizer and Natural Glow® Instant Sun® Sunless Tanning Mousse in conjunction with one another helps maintain a hassle free natural glow.

Walmart carries all of the JERGENS® Natural Glow® products, so I just pop over there whenever I'm feeling a little too pale ;)
I honestly love these two sunless tanners because they're easy to use and give me a little confidence boost when I'm wearing shorts or tanks. We should all choose to love ourselves just as we are, but, it's also nice to do something for yourself that makes you feel good!

Stay Off Of Social Media In The Morning
I know what you're thinking: That's not possible, Jenna. I have content to share to grow my brand!
I hear you, girl. There is plenty of time to work on your social media game or peruse your favorite feeds. First thing in the morning is not one of those times. How we start our day determines our outlook. When we lack confidence it puts a damper on our happiness, and that is reflected in content that we share! Comparison is such an ugly thing, and it is all too easy to fall into. If the first thing that we are feeding on in the morning is curated social content then we do ourselves a disservice.
Start the day out with a healthy dose of positivity and stay off of social media for at least the first hour. It will have a huge impact on your outlook for the day, your confidence, and your feelings of self worth, and value

Treat Yourself Just A Little
Make a wise indulgence and enjoy it every once in a while. I don't know about you, but, there is nothing in this world that makes me quite so grumpy as depriving myself. That's no way to live! When we have the proper ratio between work and play, health and indulgence we feel more confident because there is nothing to out of balance.
Self control is important, yes, but, so is allowing yourself some wiggle room to enjoy the little things - Whatever that may be for you.

Own Your Flaws
Flaws, everybody has them and nobody wants them! Take a note from Chrissy Teigen and be proud of your stretch marks [ or any other so called flaw ]. They tell a story, and there is nothing ugly about that! I have "stretchies" on my thighs, much like Chrissy, and you know what? They're beautiful. Acknowledge your flaws, whatever they may be, and own them. Your flaws might be different from mine, but, we both have them and they are apart of what makes us.. us. Stop comparing yourself to someone else's filtered life and live yours with joy!
