Natural shaving cream – or any shaving cream for that matter – was off my radar for the longest time.
I was that girl that used to shave her legs dry. Creepy, huh?
I wasn’t intentionally being non-toxic then. I just couldn’t be bothered to even put shaving cream on my legs! Nowadays, I’m much more mindful of my skin 🙂
Here’s an amazing self-care protocol for your legs and feet: apply the bergamot foot mask in the bath. While the mask is setting on your feet, use the DIY natural shaving cream to shave your legs. Once complete, wash off the foot mask and apply the serum to both legs feet.
(Be careful getting out of the bath, and make sure to put on socks or slippers. Your feet will be slippery!)

This design is steller! You certainly know how to keep a reader
entertained. Between your wit and your videos, I was almost
moved to start my own blog (well, almost…HaHa!) Wonderful job.
I really loved what you had to say, and more than that,
how you presented it. Too cool!
Thanks so much 🙂
With havin so much content do you ever run into any issues of plagorism or
copyright infringement? My blog has a lot of exclusive content I’ve either written myself or
outsourced but it appears a lot of it is popping it up
all over the internet without my agreement. Do you know any solutions to help prevent content
from being ripped off? I’d certainly appreciate it.
Oh no! So sorry to hear that… I haven’t notice that but that’s for bringing the issue to my attention!
This site was… how do you say it? Relevant!! Finally I have found something which helped me.
