When the weather starts to warm up, I get excited about unleashing myself from the bundles of winter clothes and boots. I am one of those southern belles who loves spring and summer fashions, like dresses, shorts, and sandals. One critical aspect of looking my best in these outfits is having healthy skin and manicured nails (hands and feet). I have a routine that makes it easy to keep my skin healthy that I want to share with you.  Following these three steps, using the products below, you, too, can have “marvalous” skin.

1. Exfoliate! I exfoliate my skin at least 3 times a week. I  use the exfoliating gloves for my bath or shower. Note: The gloves are too harsh to be used on your face.
2. Moisturize! Immediately after each bath or shower and before I dry off, I apply C. Booth bath and body oil from neck to toe. This technique helps to retain more moisture in my skin. Then I dry off removing most of the oil and leaving only a slight layer.
3. Moisturize! Twice a week at night, also immediately after a bath or shower I treat only my feet and legs to Now Solutions coconut oil instead of the C. Booth body oil.

In the Spring, a few times a week, I replace my favorite scented lotion with the Jergens Natural Glow. During the summer, I use this product almost every other day. I love the healthy glow that it gives my skin.
