My Fall/ Winter Skin Starting Line Up: Part 1
Angel Elliott
Summer went way too fast, didn't it folks? We're a week into fall, and I've already felt the changes in the weather. Between the sun going down earlier and the ominously cool breeze blowing every once in awhile, I was reminded to switch my beauty products regimen. Oh! And by the way, being the bipolar creative that I am, you obviously see I've changed my template, and, I'll be focusing more on life style tips and tricks, along with cooking, travel and nature. Back to skin. I have super sensitive skin that can get dry at the drop of a dime, so because of this, it's very important for me to use the right products that will not only moisturize and exfoliate, but heal and reform.
Allow me to introduce my fall/winter skin regimen.
Philosophy Purity Made Simple 3-in-1 Body Cleanser
This gem is a three in one shower, bath, and shave gel. This body wash not only moisturizes my skin, but it has the magical ability to clarify it without squeezing it dry. Thick and luxurious, this is my go-to body wash for the fall and winter.
Soap & Glory Flake Away Body Polish
Omg. Like, literally, this is the best body scrub I've ever used. I'm a habitual body scrub addict because I love having silky smooth, shiny skin. Well this is it. With shea butter, sweet almond oil, peach seed powder, sea salt and sugar, not only does it exfoliate, but it makes you smell so sweet. It will flake off the roughest, toughest, skin.
Amlactin Alpha-Hydroxy Therapy
If you've read my blog before, you've already heard about the wonderful merits of Amlactin. It's a lotion that makes your skin absolutely smooth and shiny, and it continues to slough away dead skin throughout the day, as oppose to other lotions that just go on, and fade away. Ash freakin' be gone. It's scent free for all you sensitive skin folks out there.
Sweet Almond Oil
Last, but certainly not least, is sweet almond oil. I usually use this oil after I've already applied Amlactin. It absorbs in the skin quickly, and it's hypoallergenic. Once again, perfect for sensitive skin. I also use it as a kind of pre-bath before I jump in the tub. When you massage it in your skin, it dislodges dirt and debris, and let's be honest, we're all dirt balls on occasion before we get in them parts!
I hope this helps folks! This is just part one, next Monday (which I've official dubbed as my blogs' beauty day,) part two will cover skin care for just your face! Let's stay snatched ladies and gents, and that includes taking care of your skin. Beautiful winter skin makes shiny, sexy summer goodness.
Later!
