The ingrown hairs, dry and cracked skin and short hairs can be discouraging when it comes time to put on a bathing suit and enjoy the beach or pool.
The appearance of these Granites are very common, and although they look like acne, they are not, they are caused by hair growth. Often, the hair is too weak to penetrate the skin barrier and go outside, so that, as it grows, a "clogging" occurs which manifests itself in the form of granites.
I give you some simple techniques in your daily hygiene ritual to have softer legs naturally:
Wearing a horsehair glove is a good choice: regular exfoliation It helps the skin become thinner and the hair costs less to break that barrier. It is important to always use it on moist skin and in circular movements, without getting irritated. You can complement your action with a exfoliating product which helps eliminate those dead cells that form a wall at the exit of hair. But the most important thing is to do it daily and constantly.
Do not forget, in addition, keep using a body moisturizer because if the skin dries, it becomes even more impenetrable.
With regard to hair removal, use the razors can alleviate the problem, since with each pass is removed a very thin layer of skin, and so hair is easier to leave. However, it is convenient to do it practically every day, because if you pass the blade over the granites, you run the risk of producing cuts when the blade is found with an irregular surface.
Mix 1/2 cup of oil olive with 1/2 cup of brown sugar in a bowl and take it with you to the shower. Apply the mixture on the entire surface of the legs. Rub gently in a circular motion for about a minute. Rinse the skin mixture. Do this once or twice a week to remove dead skin cells that make your legs look dull and dry.
Apply olive oil on the surface of the legs about 30 minutes before of going to bed Rub the oil in problem areas, such as the knees, and where you have dry skin. Use as little oil as possible, and wear long pajama pants on the bed to avoid staining the sheets.
Other tips
- Wax your legs in a beauty salon or try waxing on home
- Never apply the exfoliating mix with pressure. Excessive rubbing only irritates the skin. Use gentle circular movements to get better results.
- Never exfoliate and depilate on the same day.
