Spray your favorite perfume on unscented lotion or body lotion and ...Voila! You have created your favorite perfume body lotion! (Layer your 'newly created' perfumed body lotion with a spray of the same perfume for the long lasting layering effect of your favorite scent).

I worry about absorbing all the chemicals found in most lotions and creams used for dry skin. One of the best alternatives I have found is light colored and light scented olive oil. It's been used for thousands of years to soften the skin and can even be used in place of oily products for the hair. I spritz a bit of my favorite perfume into approximately 1/8 cup of olive oil and use it all over. It feels and smells wonderful and I know it's not harmful. Use it on your feet daily and you'll never have cracked heels. I also use it unscented on dry lips. Great for women, men and children and it's not harmful to babies.

When you wash your face with some kind of solution (i.e. acne cleanser), wet your face with warm-hot water first to open up the pores. After applying the solution, wash it off with cold water to then close your clean pores.

If you find yourself out a little later or up a little sooner than usual and start to notice small bags and lines around your eyes. Try hemorrhoid cream (preferrable a new tube). Just dab a little around the eyes and it helps with puffy and saggy bags.

Winter months are the months of dry skin, dry hair, and not to mention dry throats and noses that cause colds and even upper respiratory infections for those with lowered immune systems. At the beginning of each winter (cold & flu season) my doctor begins reminding me constantly to run humidifiers at home. If you have a large house or one with an unusual shape with lots of turns and twists, it helps to have 2-3 to even 4 going at once. It helps to have a humidifier in each bedroom for nighttime running. This helps alleviate stuffy noses as well as adding moisture to your skin because the heat run in a home is extremely drying. It is best to find humidifiers that work with the Vicks Vaposteam solution as this puts off an eucalyptus scent, which opens the sinus cavities making it easier to breath but also adding extra moisture to the nose, throat, and eyes as well as the skin. When not using eucalyptus, add heavily scented candles such as New Barn, and Bath &a

For dry skin apply lotion to the skin after showering while the skin is wet. In other words don't dry off just apply lotion to the still wet skin. It will feel strange at first but keep rubbing it in and it will absorb into the skin. It helps to stand in front of a fan which will allow the lotion to dry on the skin faster. Any kind of lotion can be used.

Tip for those with dark circles around eyes: Apply cow ghee around eyes before you go to bed and wash in the morning. You can use raw potato essence during the day for a while and wash after 20-30 minutes.

Just be active! Don't worry about getting wrinkles- worrying and stress will cause more wrinkles and gray hairs. If you are like other older woman, you may have dry patches of dead skin on your face. Use a mosterizer specially made for the skin on your face, or talk to your local dermotologist for help. I hope this helps you!! LOve Sophia the 11 year old
