    keeping your legs etc. smooth

    hi, i just wanted to know what are you girls' secrets for keeping your legs (and everything else silky smooth?

    i've heard using tea tree oil after you shave helps, i'm not sure if it helps me much though. waxing generally leaves me red and bumpy which is not cool. anyone have any tips? is there anything you can apply daily that will condition your skin over time and make it smoother?

    thanks and good luck y'all!

    I found that shaving with cream for sensitive skin, Bic Soleil disposable razors, and running deodorent over my legs afterwards makes my skin very smooth. Shick Quattro for women is good too, but stopped working as well after a while and I went back to Soleils

    I shave with olive oil, not soap. I also use Aveeno Positively Smooth lotion.... lots!

    Exfoliate! I make sugar and oil scrubs, cornmeal scrubs, salt... Do it every day. Then use oil for moisturizing and sheen, or alpha hydroxy body lotion/cream for extra exfoliation. If you get a reaction to waxing, maybe it's the wax, so try blue wax, which seems to leave less residue, therefore less pore clogging etc, hard wax, or sugaring.

    oh, and if you are tanning, use self tanner as opposed to a booth or sun, cuz overtime sundamage makes skin coarser.

    Best things I know:
    *Use a mans razor, they have sharper blades that allow a closer shave
    *Exfoliate
    *Use a moisterizing soap (I love Dove)
    *They have shave minimizing lotion now..I think Jergens makes some
    *They have this neat product made my Benefit called bathina but for legs.

    The Aveeno lotion I mentioned does that as well.

    Damia, for a sugar scrub all you do is make a paste of either white or brown sugar with extra virgin olive oil (i'm sure grapeseed or sweet almond oil can be used as well; i just like evoo). You can actually rub it over dry skin in the shower before you turn it on. Don't use too much oil, tho. Medium coarse sea salt is great too (also with oil), but can sting if you have nicks and cuts. Better before shaving. My fave is cornmeal and olive oil. I just take a cup, put it in a plastic jar, pour some oil in there (not too much), mix it all up and voila! Really scrubby, doesn't dissolve, and I use it on wet skin. When I used to shave I HAD to use a scrub all over beforehand, otherwise I ended up with bumps and nicks. Oh, and oils from scrubs won't completely rinse off, hence sealing in moisture.

    HTH, and let me know if I wasn't too clear!
