FOOTSIE FRIDAY




FAB Foot Cream

I spent some time in Dollar Tree @DollarTree this week researching beauty products. I've always purchased my gift bags, cards and a few cleaning supplies there but never considered the "beauty aisle."  Needless to say, I had a blast and bought lots of merchandise to try. 
Here is a formula for fabulous @DollarTree foot cream:

1 bottle of PINK baby lotion (generic for Baby Magic)
1 tube of creamy petroleum jelly with vitamin E (generic for creamy Vaseline)

Mix both ingredients and store in an air tight container. The result is very moisturizing and softens and smoothes rough dry skin. You can use this on your feet, elbows and knees. Total cost $2.

I have it on my feet right now. After my bath, while skin was still damp, I massaged into feet. I then slipped into my purple spa socks {got them @DollarTree too} and slept with the cream on. I will wake up to softer footsies!

Discover the mySkin Community




mySkin.com is a website devoted entirely to skincare. What is different about this site is that it offers unbiased skincare advice and connects you with your skin twin. What is a skin twin, you ask? Your skin twin is someone who has a similar skin profile as you.  mySkin's approach is based on the idea that when someone is just like you, a product that works for her (or him) is very likely to work for you too


Their mission is to bring clarity to the world of skincare and to provide you with the information and tools to help you make better decisions, while remaining independent and neutral. With over 70,000 cleansers, creams, lotions & potions, how do you know what works best for you? 


The mySkin community is about sharing skincare regimens, finding your skin twin, seeing what works or doesn't work for others and sharing your skin routine on their site and on Twitter @mySkin & Facebook. There is a neat feature that lets you create your skin profile, list products and your routine. Many beauty and skincare blogs are included on their website. I'm excited they chose to include my fun beauty blog!
