Secret to Smooth, Soft Skin!

I want to give you my secret to smooth, soft skin and how to smell great all day long! Seriously, those that know me outside of blogland are always saying, “ohhh, you always smell so good and your skin is so soft!” Of course, these things don’t come naturally, we all have our beauty secrets! Shhhh! I have a routine that I’ve done for ages. This also helps with stretch marks on top of creating delicious smelling smooth skin!

 
You need 3 things:

  • Nivea Skin Firming Lotion with Q10
  • Bio-Oil (You could also use Palmer’s Skin Therapy Oil)
  • Any Body Spray of your choice. Not perfume. I prefer sprays from Bath n Body Works.

Directions:

  1. Put this on after the shower, once you’ve dried off.
  2. Mix the Nivea lotion with the Bio-Oil. Only use a drop or 2 of the oil so that you do not become greasy!
  3. Apply the mixture all over your body. Concentrate on areas you really want to firm and tighten. If you have any stretch marks or scars, really massage the lotion and oil into the scars. You can also add more oil to those areas as Bio-Oil does help to reduce scarring and stretch marks. It’s heavenly!
  4. Let it dry and set into your skin while you brush your teeth, put on deodorant, etc. You do NOT want to put your clothes on just yet or the lotion/oil mixture will get absorbed in your clothes.
  5. Once it feels like your skin is starting to absorb the mixture, but it’s not quite dry yet, spritz the body spray all over. The scent is going to stay with you ALL day because it is absorbing right into the lotion and oil. Plus, it helps to dry the lotion. AND, it just feels GREAT!
Why Do I Do This?
  • I plan on keeping my skin as tight & smooth as possible for as long as possible! It’s never too young to start!
  • Your skin needs moisture and you lose it during the shower. Replenish!!!
  • I ruined my tummy when I gained almost 100 lbs in less than a year and have lovely stretch mark scars to prove it. This technique helps to fade scars and tighten skin.
  • You will smell delicious all day long! Who doesn’t find that Irresistible???
  • You just need to take care of your body. It’s the only one you’ll ever get, whether you like it or not!
Go ahead, try it out. Let me know what you think. Any skin care secrets that you want to share?

I’m so glad you mentioned Bio Oil. I was reading about this about a month ago and was wondering if anyone had any reviews on it.

Thanks!
