3 Self Care Tips for Beauty Confidence

After a long winter on the east cost it's finally time for shorts, skirts, dresses, bikinis and sandals! Personally, I am ready to start the summer with confidence. I've got a summer full of graduations, weddings and travel already scheduled. I want to make sure I take time to visit the beach, a great park (maybe have a picnic) or have a girls night out!

I'm so excited for spring fashion too! Shorts, rompers, flared-mini skirts and maxi's with thigh-slits will be my go to looks. Before I step out I'll need to get my skin sunshine-ready. Want to know my beauty routine secret? St. Ives!

I was inspired by the Rock Your Legs Music Video for “Ready, Shave, Shine” performed by the a cappella group, The Basic Pitches! I wanted to share my top in-shower tips for beauty self confidence.

1. When showering, I use a good body wash like St. Ives Oatmeal & Shea Butter Body Wash, it's dermatologist tested, hypoallergenic, paraben free and made with 100% natural ingredients. I love this scent too!

2. For an at-home spa experience I like to treat myself to a full body scrub. Taking a moment to exfoliate with St. Ives Fresh Apricot Scrub before sharing to get rid of dead skin and a closer shave.

3. Sometimes you just don't have the time for a luxe shower.  When I'm in a rush and need to shave my legs outside the shower, I soak a washcloth in warm water and wrap it around my legs for a few minutes. Warm water will soften hair and make it easier to shave. With the Schick® Intuition® Revitalizing Moisture® razor it's the first and only razor system that lathers and moisturizes during shaving in one easy step – so there's no need to use shave gel. Gentle on your skin, the razor features a 4-blade pivoting head to glide smoothly along the contours of your legs and body.
