3 Tips for Stunning Summer Legs

·         First prep your legs by removing all those dead skin cells through exfoliation you can make a great homemade scrub with two simple ingredients ½ cup of raw sugar then add enough olive oil to moisten your mixture, if you rather pick something up I recommend Burt's Bees Cranberry & Pomegranate Sugar Scrub around $12 @ your local drugstore or Boots Mediterranean Body Scrub - Melon/Sugar/ Mint $9.99 @ Target. Add some firming action into the mix by adding coffee grounds the caffeine helps tighten the skin.

·         Now it’s time to remove that unwanted hair whether you wax or shave is up to you, if shaving start with a good sharp razor( the sharper the razor the less likely to nick) Venus Spa Breeze is a my personal favorite you can grab a 2pk @ Wal-Mart for $13.34. Now add your favorite shaving cream or gel for women as these are designed for a close shave and are packed with moisturizers to keep things smooth. Try Gillette for Women: Shave w/Silk Dry Skin Vitamin Rich Botanicals Satin Care Gel or Aveeno Positively Smooth Shave Gel @ Target, Wal-Mart and drugstores around $5. Shave against the grain of hair growth, rinse and pat dry.

·         Your legs are now smooth and ready for moisturizer, be sure to moisturizer within 5 minutes as your legs are not completely dry and will absorb the most hydration. Cetaphil for dry, sensitive skin moisturizing cream is great for all skin types and can be found in drugstores, Target and Wal-Mart for around $8. You may find your legs might be a tad pale for those shorts; sundress and skirts to give your legs a sun-kissed glow try Jergens Natural Glow Revitalizing Lotion or Jergens Natural Glow Express Moisturizer both around $9 @ Target and local drugstores.
