Hey again!
So I was sort of a “chubby” kid and teenager...but really I was just normal...BUT I had a tummy which grew pretty fast because food is delicious and whatever anyway not important, that is a different rant for a different day. OK BUTTER FOCUS! I just wanted to pop on really quickly to say that because of growing up and being a normal person I developed stretch marks and then as I got older, my body started normalizing, and all that sweet squishy baby body stuff started going away I noticed my stretch marks getting larger and my skin looser.
NOW DO NOT get me wrong, I am not dissing on either of those things. I love my stretch marks, they are literally so SEXY. And all of these qualities of my body show that I am a living breathing WOMAN, which rocks!..but like I am also not going to complain about how tight I look now.
SO let me share super quickly how I have encouraged my skin to be more elastic and young looking.
I use an exfoliating glove in the shower on my whole body. I only do this when I do my everything shower because otherwise I don’t think I would have any skin left. So I use my normal washing soap to get clean, then I come in guns-a-blazing with my exfoliating glove and a glycolic acid soap I found. Then I lather and focus on those areas where I would like to tighten the skin. Now when I do this I don’t get the flaky gray skin like you see on the internet videos...but I don’t think I am doing anything wrong lol... I just don’t think I have those gray skin.
Here is the stuff I use:
My clean girly soap (it's glycolic acid!)
THEN I will give my body a little massage (still covered in soap). Sometimes I use my gua sha and other times it is already midnight and I just want to go to bed.
I use this stainless steel gua sha
The reason I use stainless steel is because it is not going to break WHEN I drop it in the shower, it is soooooooo easy to clean--I clean it with my face wash--and it can be used for body or face.-- here is how I use my gua sha too
THEN I use some skin tightening lotion and massage that in as well, focusing on the areas that I want to give more love to.
The lotion I mentioned (I have 2 that I really LOVE):
Nivea (i've used this stuff forever and love it)
Advanced Clinicals (I just recently started using it and I enjoy it)
Anyway hope this works for you like it works for me. OR in the very least gives you a little extra one on one time with your body.
OH PS; don’t forget to wash off the soap from the shower, I hope you don’t just hop out of the shower with soap on and start lotioning your body...because...why would you do that..👁️👄👁️
Forever yours,
Butter Blonde
