Taking good care of our body skin is necessary as taking good care of our face. Just like our face we need to identify our skin type (normal or dry).
I use a couple of lotions to help my skin moisturized.
I am not pregnant however, due to rapid weight gain (and now I’m losing weight), stretch marks begin to appear in my butt and thighs. I bought Palmer’s Massage Lotion in Cocoa Butter Formula as this is proven to help reduce appearance of stretch marks.
Apart of being a makeup addict I am also a sports enthusiast. I play volleyball regularly as part of my exercise. I like to play sports because it’s a total exercise for my whole body. As an active person, I need to take care of my body inside and out. I have a certain diet (will share it soon) and for the outside, I’m using Lander Firming Lotion. Firming lotion helps tighten and tone for younger looking skin. It has Vitamin E that also helps moisturize the skin. As we lose weight our skin needs to be toned as well so, after playing a sport or after exercising make sure to apply firming lotion. I also apply this in my stomach because I’ve been doing some core exercise to flatten my tummy.
Block and White is my all time favorite lotion. Since I’m in highschool I’ve been using different variants from Block and White, from Block and White Ultima, Intensive Whitening, Pearl Glow and Papaya. I am faired skin and don’t need to use whitening products however, I find it helpful in keeping my skin fair. During summer, I love going to the beach so, expect the tanning. But, with Block and White, I immediately return to my natural skin color.
I also have this Watson’s Cocoa Butter Lotion, I use this occasionally because I don’t want to spoil my skin too much with Palmer’s. Palmer’s lotion is a bit expensive compared to Watson’s. It costs P475 for 250ml while Watson’s is only P109 for 532ml. I use the Watson’s in the morning and Palmer’s in bed time.
So, here’s the routine:
Step 1: After shower, I apply my Palmer’s Massage Lotion in my butt and thighs.
Step 2: Apply, Lander Firming Lotion in my stomach, legs and arms.
Step 3: After 10 mins, or if I felt that my skin already absorbed Lander’s, I apply my Block and White Papaya Lotion.
