Get Baby Soft Skin to Dazzle This Summer

Summer is finally here, the sundresses, shorts and skirts are out in full force, and your skin is still scaly and dry from the harsh winter? Le sigh. Think an easy solution is out of reach? Think again!!

Say good-bye to that dry Winter skin and helloooo to skin that begs to be touched with 3 simple, affordable products you can find right at your local drug store!

Enter the moisturizing dream team: Nivea Powerfruit Blueberry Hydrating Shower Gel, Olay Fresh Effects {Bead Me Up} Exfoliating Clenser and Vaseline Cocoa Radiance Spray & Go Moisturizer. These 3 products deliver lasting softness and radiance with hardly any fuss at all, and for a girl on-the-go, a product that can deliver maximum moisture without too much trouble is a necessity, especially during the beach and sunshine packed days of Summer! 

I first found Nivea Powerfruit while searching for a new body wash. I had been using the same wash for quite a while and was jonesing for something new, fresh and fruity. I opened the cap and sniffed...and I was sold before I even tried it! The fresh, fruity scent of Blueberry and Acai berry filled my senses and I was ready to give it a try. After 1 week of using it, even my hubby was commenting on how soft my skin was. Packed with antioxidant properties that protect your skin from free radicals, this bodywash has deliciously juicy Blueberry and Acai scent, luxurious lather, rinses smooth and clean everytime, and uses HydraIQ to keep your skin feeling soft and smooth for 24 hours long, even in the summer!

While you're treating your skin to goddess-like softness with your new Nivea bodywash, don't forget your gorgeous face! Olay recently came out with a brand new line of skin products called Fresh Effects, and I just had to nab their new Exfoliating Clenser as soon as I spotted it on the shelf. I'll admit, besides lip gloss and mascara, face wash is my next guilty expenditure. I think, no, I'm certain, that I have tried nearly every face wash that's available out there; the cream clensers, the deep clensers, the clensers that come with the mini rubber buffer, the ones with the battery operated scrubber, the scrubs and the exfoliators. This new line from Olay has proven to be, as always, a skin-loving, dirt-lifting powerhouse that is still kind to your skin. With microbeads to slough off that dead skin, Olay lifted the dirt and make-up away, leaving my skin soft and glowing. Follow-up with your choice of facial moisturizer (my summer fave is the light, oil-free Simple Light Daily Moisturizer) and you are ready to apply your make-up and hit the beach!

Now, your bodywash's moisturizing effects will last a lot longer if you continue the moisture-lovin marathon with some good lotion. Obviously you've heard the age-old suggestion to moisturize right after you shower, before you even towel dry your body, to get the most out of your moiturizer. Whether straight out of the shower or after you're dry, the new Spray & Go lotion from Vaseline blew. My. Mind. No joke. I am a total lotion snob. Any kind of greasiness or residue and that lotion goes in the trash. I love feeling moisturized, but I'm not so crazy about the greasy feel that most lotions leave behind. Vaseline solved that problem with Spray & Go lotion. With its continuous spray bottle, light, fresh scent and Stratys multi-layer moisturizer, Vaseline Spray & Go has made it to the top of my fave lotion list without even trying! Spray this lotion on with the easy-to-use continuous spray bottle, smooth it into your skin, and within 30 seconds, the lotion has completely absorbed and your skin is baby soft and glowing. After a crazy-busy day, my skin was still touchably soft by bedtime. Success!

These 3 products will kick-start your routine to perfectly smooth, radiant, non-greasy summer skin, but don't forget the most important tool for healthy, beautiful skin in the summertime (and anytime!) Sunscreen, sunscreen, sunscreen!! If you love this skin routine, just be sure to supplement these skin-loving products with a healthy dose of sunscreen (especially on your gorgeous face!!) and get ready for the smooth skin compliments!
