meaningfulbeauty_daymoistureMeaningful Beauty by Cindy Crawford Antioxidant Day Creme spf 20. If it’s good enough for Cindy , it’s good enough for me. I like this day cream because it’s very light and provides spf protection.  I notice it helps even my skin tone

and finish outside of it. Your spa treatment of course. Get the royal treatment with Amal Oils Moroccan Hammam Collection. My favorite two products are the Moroccan Savon Noir with Eucalyptus and the Argan oil Citrus Verbena Body Lotion. The Savon Noir is a soap made from vitamin e rich Moroccan olives and eucalyptus essential oil. It is said to swell the surface layer of dead skin cells allowing them to be easily scrubbed away with their Moroccan Exfoliating Glove. Your skin is left soft, and nourished, and your nasal passages will thank you! Follow up with the body lotion, which combines vitamin E and argan oil. It has a soft citrus scent and a light consistency. So get with Amal Oils and feel oh so good….


It’s silky smooth. Yours can be too if you take care of  it post shave. Wherever you’re removing hair you want it to be soft, silky, and smooth. So banish razor burn, ingrown hairs, and irritation with the right products. Here are my recommendations:

1003_PostShave_c_hrwebRight after I shave or wax I like to apply Jack Black Post Shave cooling Gel. It soothes and conditions irritated skin, and alleviates redness with sage, rosemary and lavender botanicals.  Aloe leaf extract and chamomile help soothe and soften. Balm mint acts as an anti-oxidant to repair damaged skin.

In the weeks following a wax, or following the next few days of a shave you want to be preventative or treat any ingrowns.
pr
If you like a gel like substance, I recommend Prince Reigns serum. It removes dark spots (with glycolic acid) and softens and straightens hair for easy removal. It is all natural with ingredients like aloe vera, eucalyptus, camomile, sage, lavender, vitamin e and citrus oils.

shoba
If you prefer a cream like substance go with Shobha ingrown relief lotion. Glycolic acid exfoliates, tea tree oil protects, chamomile soothes, and glycerin moisturizes.It’s paraben free, color and artificial fragrance free.

min-new-york-solution2-post-shave-treatment-rollerball-278x278
For those of you that like a roll on application, I recommend Min New York Solution 2 rollerball. This product uses an advanced blend of liquid aspirin and organic spearmint to tighten pores and prevent redness, leaving you alleviated of razor bumps, ingrowns, and irritation. It moisturizes as well as protects against bacteria.

so take care of your skin, and get close to someone else’s….

er®. CJ’S BUTTer® products that is. These all natural products smell great and are super effective. My favorite is the Warm Vanilla Cake Body and Linen Spray. I’m addicted to it.
