Winter's coming. Dryyyyy skin is here!!
Let's talk moisturizer, yes? What do you use, at night or after shower or in the morning? Do you wear makeup?
Do you shape your brows?
Do you wax, shave, or EMJOI?
Do you treat your hair?
Anything you do to be BEAUTIFUL in particular? Do you like a particular brand of something?
Anything to share?

Do you shape your brows?No, but I would like to have it done.
Do you wax, shave, or EMJOI? Shave. Dare I ask... what is EMJOI?
Do you treat your hair?No.
Anything you do to be BEAUTIFUL in particular? Do you like a particular brand of something? I used to really like the Neutrogena products but they changed them somehow, and now I don't think they are as good.
Anything to share?

EMJOI is an instrument of torture. M got it for me to replace shaving, which I hate to do. I used to once and vowed never to touch it again... but I liked not shaving for 6 weeks so much that I got it out and did it again. I've now used it solely and haven't shaved (my legs) in months... I'm beginning to look forward to it... I may have some Morticia Addams in me... I sort of like it now.

Water. Drinking it. Lots of it. Since both our skin and our hair is actually dead cells, it seems kind of a moot point to moisturize it. And it's amazing how much of a billion dollar industry that actually is. 
So, moisturize it from the inside.

Maybe it's just me, but I need lotion especially on my hands. It sure helps them feel better when they are dry and cracked. Maybe it's the cheap soap in the bathroom which I use many many times a day because
I drink a lot of water.

Let's talk moisturizer, yes? What do you use, at night or after shower or in the morning? Do you wear makeup? I'm a major moisturizer, makeup, shower gel, bubble bath, hair stuff, etc junkie! Both my bathrooms are full of stuff and I am always buying more. Sad but true. My face is normally oily so it turns "normal" in the dryness of winter. I use several different things, either Mary Kay's Oil Free or Time Wise moisturizers, the old standby Clinique yellow moisturizer, or Philosophy's Hope In A Jar. I love their stuff....their shampoo and conditioner are SO worth the money. Makeup? Any kind, any where....I like a cheaper brand called Jane that you can find at most drugstores but if I had unlimited funds I would only buy M.A.C. (or whatever happened to be giving away a freebie at the time )And eye cream--Clinique's Daily Eye Benefits. No matter what else I put on my face, that HAS to go on daily.
Do you shape your brows? Yes, when I remember
Do you wax, shave, or EMJOI? Either wax or shave depending on the season. Summer is usually better to wax cuz it lasts longer.
Do you treat your hair? I have to, I have highlights and I swim. Conditioner EVERY DAY and hot oil once a month.
Anything you do to be BEAUTIFUL in particular? Do you like a particular brand of something? see above. I do love the Bath & Body Works Mango Mandarin line too.....and anything vanilla.....and I absolutely insist on pedicures year round (I do them myself though). Something about painted piggies just makes me happy. I wish I could be as diligent with my nails!

Let's talk moisturizer, yes? What do you use, at night or after shower or in the morning? I have sensitive skin and can't use anything scented. I use Vaseline Intensive Care w/aloe. When my skin gets too dry I use Eucerin. It's so thick! Face I use a homemade Rose Creme. For some reason the rose hip in this dosen't irritate my face. I purchase it from a woodworker I deal with in Vermont, his wife makes the creme. It's pricey but oh so worth it!
Do you wear makeup? Only if I have to.
Do you shape your brows? When I remember.
Do you wax, shave, or EMJOI? Shave. I wax the underarms.
Do you treat your hair? Highlights. Tons of conditioner and I use a leave in conditioner about 2-3 times a week. I had a bad Hot Oil experience in high school and am afraid to try it again. I really should try.

Oil of Olay with SPF every single day. Can't smile without it. After shower, use Lac-Hydrin on extremely dry arms and legs (otherwise bad itching makes bad rash who has time) I rarely wear makeup.
Do you shape your brows? No but someone else does, every 3 weeks. It's a great way to look really put together and it's not very $.
Do you wax, shave, or EMJOI? See above.
Do you treat your hair? Irregularly.
Anything you do to be BEAUTIFUL in particular? Do you like a particular brand of something? I can't overstate the good feeling I have when I see nicely manicured hands and they're my own.
Anything to share? apricot scrub does a really good job

I love anything by Burt's Bees. Bath and Body have good feet lotion. They used to have an excellent foot cool-down spray, but I don't think they sell it anymore.
