Anyone who knows me personally knows that I love taking care of my skin.  Some of my friends may even attest to the smooth and soft appearance of my skin! I really enjoy taking care of my skin and I believe that every woman (and man alike) should make time every day to take care of their skin. Your skin requires 110% of your love and devotion in order to appear and feel the way you want it to... Soft, Smooth, Supple, Energized, Moisturized, Hydrated, Glowing, Full of Life!! Neglecting your skin now can lead to you hating it as you grow older.... :( ❤   Skin Care Starts From Inside -> Out! I cannot stress how much influence what you eat and drink have on the appearance of your skin.  It is important to have a healthy diet in order to have and keep the skin of your dreams... Many skin conditions are influenced by what we eat, like acne and dry skin so it is also important to include those good foods in our diet that help to give us good skin . <<< Check...
