Glow Like a Surfer Girl ☀️

The_slightly_hippie_mom

Am I the only one who has a strange wish to be a healthy, glowing, Hawaiian surfer girl? Their skin always looks so… quenched. Lol.

Anyway, with winter coming and our forced air system getting ready to dry up our skin, I was hoping to see what everyone’s home remedies are for dry, flakey alligator skin. 🐊

I’ve tried a humidifier, lathering myself in coconut oil, and going through an entire stick of lip balm a week and still get pretty crocodiley … So I would love to hear other ideas 😄

In the meantime, I highly suggest the brand Kopari. They make natural products with coconut oil that smell amazing and keep you sun kissed throughout the winter. ☀️ (Not endorsing the brand, just generally love it and suggesting it highly!). They are a bit on the expensive side in my opinion, but I love how the smell brings me right back to summer 🌊

Anyway, wishing everyone a moist winter (sounds strange, but you know what I mean)!

  1. I used to have alligator skin all the time from washing my hands too much. My cousin made a balm with beeswax, honey, and coconut oil that healed my skin right up when nothing else would. If you can’t make something like that yourself, I would try Burt’s bees or similar for the same effect. And the burt’s bees lip balm can be used on hands and arms, too.

  2. I am not sure where you are located, but I LOVE Rodan and Field’s active hydration serum. It’s available in the US, Canada, and Australia. If this applies to you, let me know. It may be worth giving a go!

    PSA- as amazing as coconut oil is, it does clog pores. Be careful with it, olive oil and a couple others can give you similar results with could the risk of clogging 😉
