Great Tip for Soft Skin
 
So this tip was from my midwife after my second baby, she said it would help the soreness and irritation from pushing/stitches. But a bonus I wasn't expecting was really soft skin! So you fill your bathtub with warm water, then add a cap full of Dreft. Yup, the baby laundry detergent. This is a great bubble bath option too if you're sensitive to normal bubble baths. Then you soak in the tub for as long as you like. :)

I will definitely have to try to this one. I hope it works for me as well.

As a major fan of bubble baths, I'll try the Dreft.

I'd been having a horrible problem with flaky, dry skin on my forehead. Everywhere else I'm pretty much OK, but the forehead really looked bad. It was even ruining my makeup by making my foundation look like stucco.

Suddenly I got an inspiration and washed my face with my husband's dandruff shampoo. Works like a charm.

I came here to post that, but since the soft skin thread was already started, I added my tip in here.

You know what is really amazing stuff? Papaya soap... especially Likas Papaya Soap. It's marketed for natural skin whitening, but I quickly discovered another side effect.. it makes your skin baby smooth. All the bumps on my upper arms were almost completely gone within just a week of using the stuff. They're back now cuz I haven't kept up with it, but that stuff's amazing. Only downside is it dries your skin out so you have to moisturize after you use it. But I LOOOOOOVE the effects! :D

1/2 cup sugar and 3-4 tsps olive oil ... for the smoothest skin in the whole world lol

My son has either excema or psoriasis.....or some type of dry, flaky skin condition on the skin of his nose. The dermatologist gave him a prescription (EXPENSIVE) cream for it, but also recommended using dandruff shampoo on it once it had gotten manageable to keep it that way.
