Please could you advise me on the cream i will use that will soften my skin especially my palm and foot.?

Answer 1

Udder cream is the best, but I've only seen it in large quantities. The Boby Shop's Hemp Body Butter is really good too. Put plenty on and wear cotton gloves/sockettes (available from Body shop)overnight and you'll fairly notice the difference. After a week your skin will be just like a baby's!

Answer 2

It's hormonal. Most women will acquire some moustache growth at some point in their life, especially after age 30, but many from early teens. If there's not too much of it, do you really need to do anything? Most guys are OK about women with a slight moustache. If you do decide you have to do something, then be very careful, because there's a lot of wrong "information" around. Facial (and also body) hair on women comes about in the same way as on men because of 1) your body being sensitized, before you were even born, to testosterone -- doesn't happen to all girls, but does to many 2) your body producing high levels of testosterone The growth rate and coarseness of the hair depends on just how much testosterone is circulating in your bloodstream. Steer clear of bleaching -- when someone sees you against the light you'll look as if you have a glowing moustache and/or beard. As far as removing it is concerned it's worth remembering that * Waxing, plucking, threading, epilating all pull the hair out by the roots and where the growth is hormonally-driven can actually stimulate a dormant follicle into producing more hair quicker. They also distort the root if done repeatedly, leading to hair growing at strange angles. And you've got to let the hair grow to quite a length before you can repeat the exercise. It can also damage the skin and discolor it. Long-term use of waxing also causes bad wrinkles. * Chemical depilatories strong enough to remove the hair are very likely to burn the skin, cause swelling and cause long-term discoloration of the skin. * Laser is also liable to cause burning and discoloration and in any case only works effectively on a dark hair/light skin combinantion. * Electrolysis is very liable to cause scarring and discoloration of the skin. Which, like it or not, leaves shaving which does not damage the skin. Best done with a men's-style electric razor, the best of which, for women, are probably those from the men's range of Norelco razors (Philishave outside the US). Most women who try a men's Norelco wonder why nobody ever told them about it before.

Answer 3

The key things to have a soft palm and foot are the following:

1. expose less to air, detergents and dust. This can be done by wearing socks whenever possible.

2. use a pumice stone to remove the dead skin.

3. before going to bed, scrub well and apply some rich cream (Nivea would do) and wear socks and gloves during the night (if you don't have gloves, wear another pair of socks on your hands)

keep this routine for a few days, and you will be surprised with the results.

Answer 4
