Summer is fast approaching so now is the time to get ready. No more hiding behind those long skirts or pants.No more boots or socks. Bye-bye flannals & turtle necks. Hello, flip flops,shorts, tank tops, open toe shoes etc, etc ...
So what does that mean? First, if you haven't shaved your legs or under arms all winter long, GROSS. But, that is the first thing to do asap! Is there a reason why you haven't? Just because it's cold outside & your covered up,doesn't mean you need a fur coat. Really ladies, doesn't it feel better when your body is smooth, hair free? And it looks better too. Remember, your not on a deserted island where you have no choice. Wax, laser, shave......
Next, moisturize. Skin tends to be drier in the winter & you don't want to look like that scaly lizard. It doesn't even have to be an expensive cream. My favorite drugstore brand is the Vaseline with coco butter(brown bottle). Its creamy,rich with just the right amount of necessary greasiness. But it's for body not face. It's a common mistake that people make. They think you can use whatever they want for all over. Not true.
Face creams: They come in a variety, ranging from make to price. From day to night,for your eyes and fine lines etc. Do they work? Honestly, if they were to make wrinkles disappear,we'd all look we were 18 again. What they do is put moisture into the skin & hopefully have a SPF to protect the skin. You can spend $30 or you can spend $200, it' s up to you. You have to like it. It has to do something for you. If you can't decide, then consider getting a facial at a respectable spa. They'll tell you exactly what you need. Of course, it won't be a cheap cream. But some things are worth spending the money,totally up to you.
Skin care in general is very important. It's the first thing people see and whether or not you've been blessed with great genes, it still needs to be taken care of. ALWAYS, wear an SPF either alone or in your moisturizer.Always, wear a moistirizer. It works & it helps. Look at me, I'm 55.
If you're a sun worshipper like me then you definitely need a SPF! Everyone needs a little color but be careful. Wear a big hat, sunglassses but do enjoy the sun. But that brings us back to hair.
What do you mean you haven't shaved your legs all winter? It's not a winter blanket. I don't even think women were meant to have hairy legs. If Eve was perfect, she wouldn't have hair because we want it off therefore,she didn't have hairy legs or arm pits. And, even though your other half may say he doesn't care, is that really true? Then why not have hairy legs all year round. Just kidding, don't do it! It literally takes a minute in the shower. While your conditioner is in your hair, you could shave. What you don't condion your hair?
