Cheverly Registered: 09/07/10 Posts: 8 Loc: Arlington, VA	I'm trying to stay motivated to continue exercising outside even when the weather gets colder - but it's hard when cold weather can do such damage on your skin! What do you usually do to keep your skin feeling healthy in cold weather?

I live in a dry climate so lotion is a must! _________________________ Well-behaved women rarely make history. - Laurel Thatcher Ulrich http://ruthrainwater.wordpress.com/ http://newbeginningsgratitudejournal.wordpress.com/ http://sablewings.wordpress.com/

Di Member Registered: 11/15/05 Posts: 2798 Loc: NM, transplant from NJ	Hi Cheverly, Sorry ladies, but forget the lotions! They keep drying your skin! Our Shea Butter is the ONLY thing to use on skin. No water/alcohol to continually dry the skin. And, you can put it in bath water (it melts nicely). Not oily/greasy by any means, as long as you "butter your body" sparingly.No need to use it more than maybe twice/day, if that much! You will NOT regret pure, unrefined Shea Butter. We sell it because we use it. See our website for many testimonials! Apologies for the shameless plug but just had to jump in here.

Cheverly Registered: 09/07/10 Posts: 8 Loc: Arlington, VA	Skin care is very important to me - especially in the winter. First because I work with Eucerin and second because I love being able to exercise outside even when it gets cold (love brisk walks in the winter :)). I agree that healthy skin comes from drinking plenty of water, eating right and using tons of lotion! I keep a bottle of Eucerin Intensive repair at my desk at work, in my bathroom and in my purse. I always have it handy!

Anne Holmes Boomer in Chief Registered: 03/11/10 Posts: 3212 Loc: Illinois	Hi Di, Thanks for jumping in to mention the importance of looking for a pure Shea Butter product. I was looking at the ingredients of a body butter the other day at the store. They called it a shea butter product, but I was amazed to see that the shea came in as the 6th ingredient -- well after water/alcohol and all the other typical lotion ingredients. So glad you sell the "real" stuff! _________________________ Boomer in Chief of Boomer Women Speak and the National Association of Baby Boomer Women. www.nabbw.com www.boomerwomenspeak.com www.boomerlifestyle.com www.boomerco.com

chatty lady Writer Registered: 02/24/04 Posts: 20267 Loc: Nevada	Our Di sells Shea Butter and if you are troubled with dry winter skin order a jar, because it really works on dry skin anytime.Di is so right about soaking in the ntub and I feel once a day is enough even when it nis very dry outside, cold and windy... _________________________ Take a peek at my BLOG: http://charleen-micheles.blogspot.com/

chatty lady Writer Registered: 02/24/04 Posts: 20267 Loc: Nevada	When going out walking in winters cold weather, (if you do)rub some E.V. Olive Oil lightly on your face and after coming home rinse it off with a damp warm cloth. This will keep it from chapping or drying out and it is cheap. This especially helpful when it is windy. _________________________ Take a peek at my BLOG: http://charleen-micheles.blogspot.com/

jabber Member Registered: 02/17/05 Posts: 10032 Loc: New York State	I use Di's Shea's Butter on the heels of my feet; this time of year it really keeps them from getting hard and rough. Of course, now I'm using it in my hair, too. So I guess you could say, from top to bottom, I use Shea's in every way! LOL... _________________________ https://www.amazon.com/author/bonnie.mill-lemke https://kdp.amazon.com/en_US/bookshelf
