what lotions do you put on your face? legs? arms? is it better or worse if it has a fregrance or freg free?
what spf do you use in the summer for sun bathing? do you use different # spf on different areas? or the same on all areas?
what do you do to get your legs to shine? apparently theres some stockings that do this which are invisible. is this some kind of waxing that makes it shine?
what perfume are you using? where do you apply it?
makeup products....cheapo stuff....or mac?
me..well im as natural as they come....but for the other questions.... st ives for dry skin/psoriasis on my elbow. keri on my face/legs i dont even use perfume...yet...i find its real expensive.
I wish I had the time and funds to be as frou-frou as some of the others that have shared their routine here! I guess I've become pretty low-maintenance. No fun! I shower every other day or so, I use shampoo and conditioner that I buy at the grocery store. I wash, body and face, with Dove extra moisturizing soap because I tend towards dry skin, and I shave with a disposable razor.
I have a loofah that I'll use on my shoulders and back when I'm feeling really decadent but I have no idea what "dry brushing" is and I've never exfoliated my legs. Is that something that is more useful depending on the thickness or texture of one's hair?
Not only that, but I've been totally unaware until today that shiny legs was something that one would hope to attain, lol!
I wear Happy by Clinique when I do wear a scent, a couple of times/week, and I apply it to the insides of my wrists and the nape of my neck. The smaller spray cologne lasts me over a year.
I use Neutrogena hand cream in the Norwegian formula on my hands, especially throughout the winter, and on my feet and elbows when I remember. It's heavy and greasy and you can't touch anything for five minutes after applying it but it works really well for me!
I use few cosmetics but I spend a little bit more on those since I like the "good" stuff and it lasts me so long. When I remember to use a facial moisturizer, I use an Estee Lauder one with a built-in SPF 15 sunscreen. A creme in the winter and a lighter lotion in the warmer months.
For everyday use, I use a bit of Clinique pressed powder to even out skin tone and some blistex lip balm and that's it. If I'm going all out, I use Estee Lauder's twist-up eyeliners (love them, I can line the inner part of my eyelids and it doesn't smear!), I've been using a Revlon mascara I think for a couple of years now (silver tube with blue print on it,) and I can't even remember what brand blush is in the bag...there are a couple, a peachy one and a pinky one.
Oh, and once Spring has sprung, if I know I'll be spending more than 10 minutes outdoors, I use an SPF 75 and reapply regularly. Even with that, I'll still get some color and will burn if I stay in direct sunlight longer than a couple of hours. I am so pale, I glow in the dark!
