Recently I've started taking classes in Bikram yoga, which is something `I never thought I'd do. Me and yoga have never been the best of friends, mainly because of my inability to sit down and shut up for more than three minutes. But the short story is, I love it.
It's a really intense workout and the heat draws all the toxins out of your body and skin.
One of my favourite parts of the whole things is the shower afterwards - I just feel so much cleaner than I do when I shower anywhere else, and it's the perfect exfoliating opportunity... which brings me to the point of this post. All you need for the softest, smoothest skin in the world is:
- A body brush. I like these so much better than loofahs or exfoliating mitts; they're lovely and massaging without being at all abrasive and they do a beautiful job.
- Shower gel. Easier to carry in your workout bag than a bar of soap, and lots have added nutrients for you skin. My favourites are the Radox Soul Soother Shower Smoothie and Original Source's Lime Shower Gel.
- An amaaaazing moisturiser. I lovelovelove Palmer's Cocoa Butter Formula. It is amazingly moisturising but not greasy, it's helped to clear up the scars and marks on my body and it smells like CHOCOLATE :) yum.
Try it for yourself - you'll be amazed at the difference in the way your skin looks and feels!
Lots of love
xx
