Supplely Soft & Smooth Skin Tips the Bestest Skin Year Round

Ok, so while we may not all look like this;
 we can all have skin like this and here's how.

Dear Divas,

         With summer seemingly shaping up to be one of the hottest ever lightweight and little to know clothes are going to be worn. That being said; 

 

there’s nothing WORST than dry, ashy, cracked, and crusty; feet, skin hands, or lips but we covered lips last week.

So give your skin some TLC to get in touchable shape.

Because with heat on the rise so are the hems of the dresses, shorts, skirts, shirts, and more importantly cute sandals and heels. Don’t get caught out there with crusty anything!

Smh.....Lord...Lord....Lord she should be ashamed...
Even though I have seen some of heels that look these
 bad and be honest so have you! lol

Here are 9 Fabulous Skin Tips

1.    They say that some like it HOT well your Skin likes it lukewarm.

A hot shower or bath feels great (because some of you think you have to burn or boil the dirt off....smh....lol), but actually  hot water robs your skin of its natural moisture, making it scaly and rough. Switch to a lukewarm soak or shower instead, to keep skin supple.

2. Start a moisturizing routine.

Regularly hydrating your skin makes soft skin, especially in dry air and extreme temperatures can dry out skin quickly. Apply moisturizer every time your skin gets wet: after washing your hands, getting out of the shower.

 

3. Try using a smoothing body lotion.

When moisturizing, while smell good lotions, well smell good (sorry but its true), but it’s important to look for a lotion that contains smoothing ingredients like salicylic or alpha-hydroxy acids.

4. Use socks and ol’skool Vaseline as your feets secret weapons.

Believe it or not this came like this.

Secret softening weapons for your feet as they can become cracked, rough, and dry overtime from neglect. When you get home, remove shoes and socks and apply some Vaseline.Then replace your socks as you do your evening chores. The heat of the socks will help the Vaseline  to penetrate, softening your soles easily.

This is my one of my FAVORITE

Seeeeeeeee it works

5. Don’t go that Natural....Keep shaving.

But of course I would have find a
DIVA razor (lol)

Believe it or not, regular shaving (even when it's not always necessary) helps skin stay soft because it manually removes a layer of dead, dry skin cells, revealing healthier, softer cells. Use your razor at least (2x) twice a week for best results.

Lol...Yea this pic is a little extreme but you get point.

6. Begin using an AHA face lotion.

See how great it works on my face.

These products are perfect for making facial skin smooth and soft. Initial use can cause flaking, however, so don't start a new regimen right before a big event because it takes time for a new regiment  to show it results.

7. Consider a body scrub.

To help make every part of you soft, including your chest, décolleté, back, and elbows, use a shower scrub that contains sloughing particles to whisk away dead skin cells, plus a soft fragrance to give your skin allure. A good one: Body Scrub or you can make you own with sugar or sand, your favorite body oil...this will make you feel soooo smooth ). This is another

One of my FAVS that I used regularly

8. Beware CHEAP WATERED DOWN OR HARSH SOAPS.

Like those that are found in public or corporate restrooms can contain harsh detergents that are drying to skin; the same goes for some deodorant body bars. Instead, stick to more gentle cleansers (carry a mini bottle in your purse), like Cetaphil, which is also great for esema  and severely dark skin which those soaps can cause.

 

9. Treat cuticles right.

They're one of the first areas on the body to dry out and become scaly and scratchy, which can put a damper on any event if someone looks at your self polished  or just polish changed nails or toes and sees the white or in some cases yellowish gray layering around the nail bed . To combat this and replenish easily lost moisture, use a cuticle cream or oil daily.

**Quick note as you take heed to these tips; get smaller contains to pour some into from the larger packaging to carry with you on a daily which saves money and your skin. Remember like with your hair, body, skin, clothes, car, teeth you name it; they are only as good to you as you are to them. They need a regiment to represent you the best way possible.

In closing I leave you  with this spoken by my Fabulously Fly Diva Mama the late Great Felisia Michelle McKee said days before her death, “Take care of your body it’s the only one you have; mine has turned on me cause I didn’t start earlier in life”. My mother died February 22, 2011 at the young age of 47 of congestive heart failure that she was only diagnosed with a year in a half prior. This experience solidified my dedication to take care of myself and to help others learn to do the same and be FABULOUSLY FLY in their own right. RIP (my reallifeDIVA) my Mama….

I love you Divas Always and Forever FAB
