Zit Zapper

Aquaphor is I swear a miracle product. I use this stuff on my chapped lips, on my cuticles, on anything really and I’m aways happy with the results. However, I JUST NOW realized that you can put these on your unsightly blemishes and it cuts the healing time in half!!! (I found this out after my skin decided to revert back to its 14 year old self..)

Smooth As A Baby’s Butt

My little munchkin has had some eczema outbreaks during this TEXAS COLD SNAP ’09/’10.  So I thought I’d share with you what we are doing to FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT the eczema!!

  1. Boudreaux’s Baby Kisses Infant & Kids Lip and Cheek Moisturizer-If you haven’t heard of Boudreaux’s Butt Paste for diaper rash then you are missing out!  That stuff works and so does this!  But this stuff is for your little one’s lips and cheeks.
  2. Aquaphor Baby Healing Ointment-For all over, this stuff is thick and we’ve used this head to toe, especially now when the cold wind is a whippin’.  The bonus with this stuff is that after you’ve slathered the kiddo, you can rub this into your cuticles for a little mini mani!
  3. method baby Squeaky Green Body Lotion-We use this mainly for our little guy’s legs and knocks those dry spots out pretty quick.

Brush the OPI oil all along your nail bed, rub that in. Take the Aquaphor lip treatment and dab it at the base of each fingernail, rub that all around.  Then finish everything off with a little squeeze of the Neutrogena Fast Absorbing Hand Lotion.  That’s it!  It’s super quick and it’ll have your fingers looking 1000% better in no time.  I also keep these items in my car* or purse so that if I’m out and about and in need of some nail resuscitation.
