skin care products, skin creamsWhy do you use skin care products? The most obvious reason why people use skin care products is that they want to keep their skin feeling clean, supple, healthy and soft. I use skin creams and other products for all of those reasons too. However for me there is a little more to it than that. I also use skin care products because I like to be kind to myself. I spend a lot of time doing things for others so that now and again I like to do something that is only for me.
A couple of times per week I go all out with my skin care products. I start by running myself a bath and adding some bubble bath and a few drops of essential oil. I use a high end exfoliating body wash to scrub myself from head to foot with a loofah. Once I get out of the bath I cleanse and tone my face. Then I use two different skin creams. One of the skin creams is fragranced and I use it on my body, the other is for my face. I also put deodorant on and if I am feeling particularly self-indulgent I will even apply some fragrance perfume that matches my body lotion even though I am not going anywhere. This routine with skin care products takes at least an hour and it always relaxes me so that I emerge from the bathroom feeling great.
