Though this winter has been fairly mild, we know that many people often forget about their bodies that are trapped under those layers of sweaters and leggings. But in preparation for spring, the best thing to do is focus on getting your skin back to smooth and supple. Here are a few tips for getting ready for mini-skirt season:

Plant extracts can nourish your skin without clogging your pores or sitting on top of your skin, making you feel greasy. We recommend Suki Butter Cream Salve.

Posted by Guest-Author on January 21st, 2012
When it’s cold outside nothing is worse than a dry face. Thankfully there are ways to combat the cold by revitalizing your face with replenishing products.

Follow some of these tips and your face should be able to handle the harshest of weather conditions.
Don’t Stay in Hot Water too Long
Even though staying under hot water in the shower is nice and warm, your face is getting more dried out the longer you stay in the shower. Hot water and soap strips your face of its natural oils. Instead use natural products that are gentle on your skin and are made without unnatural impurities. Luke warm water is adequate to use to get your body clean and your face will retain its much needed moisture in the process.
