Recommends:
For body, lips and feet...
MichelleEven though this summer has not been exceptionally hot, it is a good idea to use a rich moisturizer so that your skin does not get dried out by the sun's rays.
For ultimate skin protection and for a yummy smell, I recommend Shea Body Butter from the Body Shop. Not only does this lotion look and smell amazing, you can notice the difference in your skin immediately.
The Body Shop carries several kinds of Body Butter (Mango, Olive Oil, Hazelnut, etc.), but the Shea Body Butter is the only one that I completely fell head over heels for.
Don't be embarrassed by your ashy skin, apply a generous portion of the lotion to your skin, and leave your home looking and feeling radiant. ¤ Michelle

For a recent wedding, the bride and I decided to prep ourselves for her big day. We treated our hands and feet to a little pampering.
It was my first ever pedicure. I have always wanted to have my feet pampered but I am also very ticklish (my boyfriend can testify to that). It wasn’t easy to hold back from squirming, but it was well worth the tickle torture.
The end result was very soft, pretty hands and feet. Now, I can rock the sandals. Go ahead and spoil yourselves, it will be especially enjoyable for those less ticklish. ¤ Phan

I'm usually very low-key when it comes to make-up (low-key meaning that although I do wear it, I don't usually spend a lot of money on it). Call me cheap, but I don't think you should have to spend your whole paycheck on some product that does the exact same thing as something else that is at a fraction of the price.
The only exception is MAC lipstick. I would recommend their whole line, actually, but for a broke girl like me some of their products can get pricey. I started wearing lipstick at a very young age, so I've been around the make-up counter once or twice. Okay, so you didn't ask for my life story. All in all, I find that MAC's lipsticks are the most non-drying out there, and I pride myself on not having chapped, peeling lips. In the winter, they're perfect to wear over lip balm or Vaseline. MAC also has a very versatile line that's guaranteed to fit any complexion out there. Bonus points for their recycling program and Viva Glam line, (I simply adore Viva Glam II) which donates proceeds to HIV/AIDS research. ¤ C.Ho.
