3 Secrets For Smooth Skin

Written by Vivianne

We review our smooth skin essentials: C.O. Bigelow’s tea tree oil, Murad’s Clarifying Body Spray and the Salux beauty skin cloth.

Tea’s company

Next time you feel a breakout coming, try dropping some melaleuca alternifolia on your fingertip and rub the critical area for a few seconds instead of obsessing about the swelling and rushing to pop a non-existent zit. Repeat this every two hours and watch the monster be gone without going into eruption. Swear. Because it won’t dry up your skin like so many other “instant” acne treatments from the drugstore, tea tree oil will soon become instrumental in your skin care routine. We get ours from C.O. Bigelow ($10 for 10 ml.)

Bacne? Non, merci!

Bikini season is at our door and we’re working out a lot in order to get back in amazing shape. Although we’re feeling pretty good about our cardio routine, we at times have had to deal with annoying breakouts on our chest or rough patches on our upper back i.e. “bacne” – due to nothing else than good ol’ calorie-burning sweat. If the same thing ever happens to you, please do yourself a favor, run to the beauty store and purchase Murad’s Clarifying Body Spray ($36 for 125 ml.) The tingling sensation may surprise you at first, but the results are absolutely worth the discomfort and will save you the extra $$ of a full-body scrub at the spa.

Harajuku Girls you got some wicked skin ♥

Straight from Japan, the Salux beauty skin cloth is our new shower obsession. Much longer than a normal wash cloth (it’s 35 inches), it is designed to easily reach and exfoliate the neck and back. Plus, everybody keeps raving about how radical this product is for cellulite massages – what’s not to like? We found it for as low as $2.50 on Amazon.
