Tips for soft skin

Tired of having rough, dry skin but don’t know where to start in achieving smooth and soft skin?

Follow these simple body care tips and say sayonara to dry skin and hello to soft skin.
1)   Drink lots of water. By keeping your body hydrated, you’ll also be keeping your skin hydrated.
2)   Add oil to your bath. Body products that contain an oil such as jojoba oil, olive oil, or hazelnut oil will help add extra moisture to your skin while you bath.
3)   Make sure water is lukewarm. When bathing, make sure the water isn’t too hot as it can dehydrate your skin, leaving it feeling dry and rough.
4)   Exfoliate your skin. Exfoliating once a week will get rid of dead, dry skin and allow your skin to better absorb the nourishment you are giving it in the form of hydrating body creams.
5)   Use a hard-working body lotion. Try: La Prairie Skin Caviar Luxe Body Cream, which is a rich body cream that contains caviar extract to deeply moisturis dry skin. The luxury body product also firms and clarifies skin.

What body products do you use to keep your body hydrated?

Agree al round, especially with drinking lots of water, not the easiest thing to do in winter.

I have a couple of products I'm using, however my post-shower lotion I'm using right now is Sukin. My skin soaks it right up!

Nice tips, just be very careful getting out the bath if you've added oil to it!

I use good ol' Nivea Creme. Nothing works as well for me, I find.

I know it's bad, but I love having really hot showers at the end of the day - I find it relaxing.

I really love avon moisturising body lotions - my fave is milk and honey. I also love sorbolene cream, its great and non-greasy for my whole body. I use dove body wash with a loofah in the shower for soft skin as well :) I love eating olives and fish for my skin, and the healthy fats in the olives and fish make your skin glow :) Next time u wanna snack, have a few olives on a cracker.
