Beauty tips on soft skin for the modern bride

Beautiful skin is always a must and there is nothing better than soft skin all over. We feel our best and rather it's the extra step before your wedding or your general beauty regimen. You've done a good job protecting your face from winter's freezing winds and cold temperature, but what about the rest of your skin, covered in warm clothing. 

The first step to getting soft skin all over is to exfoliate. When dead skin builds up it gets rough, dry and flaky, the dead skin accumulate over time and can leave your skin feeling rough and dry, but exfoliation removes dead skin cells, dirt and oil. While your face may respond better to exfoliating products. Other hard to treat areas may respond better to physical exfoliation like scrubbing. Heels and elbows are some of these areas. Soak in warm water, also try bath salts, followed by a scrub with a loofah, pumice stone or exfoliating shower gloves.

The next step is moisturizing to maintain soft skin. Apply moisturizer to freshly exfoliated skin to lock in the moisture and prevent dryness. Make sure to use lighter serums and lotions for your face and stay away from heavily oiled based creams as they can aggravate your skin. The moisturizer you use for your elbows, knees and heels are recommended for your face. Please note to take care in choosing moisturizers and read labels carefully.

Your skin regimen should shift to accommodate the changing weather as well. During winter try for heavy creams to keep extra moisture in from the biting cold. Spring’s daily fluctuating’s in temperature might be difficult with changing humidity levels. Also remember applying sunblock once per day is not nearly enough attempt to touch up at least 3 times daily. Use lighter serums and products during the warmer months and they can become overbearing and keep you soft and smooth without being too oily.
