How to get smooth and toned legs.
Smooth Legs Step by Step
Step 1: Dry Brushing
The practice of dry brushing is so simple. It’s meant to get the blood flowing in those gorgeous legs and to rid them of dry or dead skin cells. This not only exfoliates your skin but can be effective in minimizing the appearance of cellulite. That’s a win-win in my book. However, that’s not all. You can reap additional benefits from dry brushing that are good for more than just your legs. Check out six pros from Lustre Lagoon that dry brushing can offer your whole body.
A body brush is very inexpensive. Be sure to use one with natural bristles. I found mine on Amazon. So how do you properly dry brush? Here are a few tips.
- Start by stripping down and stepping in the shower. Dry brushing is done…well, dry, so make sure your body is just that and without lotions or oils.
- Begin at your feet, using long strokes and always brush towards your heart.
- Shower and moisture as usual. If you are shaving follow our advice below.
Step 2: Shave with men’s shaving foam.
Yep, I’m totally serious. You have permission to steal your husband’s shaving foam, and I’m not talking about the expensive shaving gels store’s offer. All you need is your basic, cheap Barbasol shaving foam. You can find it at most stores or on Amazon in a pack of two (his and hers, LOL). If you want to get really fancy you can get the foam with Aloe. The foam helps protect from nicks and doesn’t clog up your razor like gels can.
Step 3: Apply baby oil gel and after shave.
This step is the real trick. After you are done shaving and before you turn off the shower, apply a layer of baby oil gel. It’s thinker than regular baby oil and does wonders for giving you smooth skin and preventing bumps and razor burn, especially in the sensitive bikini area. If you tend to develop razor burn or red bumps after shaving this after shave gets rave reviews. You may feel a slight burning sensation when you first apply but it subsides quickly. I have tried it and it does work well but the baby oil gel really prevents me from having to use anything else. If you want you can still add a layer of your regular lotion or moisturizer on top of the baby oil gel, but its optional.
Now that you know the secret to getting smooth legs, let’s get them toned with our favorite workout. It’s all about strong, sexy legs! Do this circuit 1-3 times through, three times a week and you will see and feel the difference.
