Bathing Basics

Soft, touchable skin is the perfect accessory for a great outfit, good hair and perfect makeup. A few tips for getting the best possible bod:

Keep your showers under the 10-minute mark and make sure you’re using warm – not hot – water.

For shaving, opt for a razor with three or more blades and use a generous amount of shaving cream.

Exfoliate weekly with a gentle scrub, and use a light touch for the sensitive skin on your chest and neck.

After a shower or bath, dry off lightly with a towel and apply body lotion while skin is still damp.
