Hello Darling !
Being a girl has many challenges. We are often seen as perfect creatures with beautiful hair, perfect nails and flawless skin.
As if that wasn’t challenging, being a cosmetician makes the previous statement even more of a requirement because you should basically embody perfection. Nevertheless, once the temperature drops to -40 degrees Celsius, it seems impossible to find anything that will hydrate your dry,rough and chapped skin. If you are like me, you love being on the go with your ID cards in one pocket and your phone in the other… Carrying a bag to simply carry lotion kind of annoys me …
Everyone always says to moisturize right when you get out of the shower but that does not seem to help. Upon a week of serious experiments, the verdict is in and I have found the trick ladies…
SHEA BUTTER SHEA BUTTER SHEA BUTTER SHEA BUTTER SHEA BUTTER
YES. SHEA. BUTTER.
Find a natural product store and pick up some raw shea butter… It should come in a yellow-golden color, hard as rock.
Buy it and heat it up until it is in a liquid texture (if you overheat it, it will loose all its nutrients). Pour a generous amount in your body wash AND your body lotion. Keep the extra for your knees, knuckles and rough spots.
I don’t even know why you are still reading. GO FIND YOUR SHEA BUTTER GIRL !
If your skin is cracking because it is so dry, add glycerin to the mix. Also make sure you are getting enough H2O in your body.
Thank Me Later,
xoxo,FashDep.
