Hey ladies!! This is a brand new SistaCircle. We've received some questions on skin care and health, so wa-la, SkinTopics was created. Join this group and we can explore some concerns about our skin and celebrate the beauty which is our skin. While we dont have the staff to answer specific questions all the time, this forum gives the opportunity to come together and offer info to each other in this area. I'll look for some articles to get us started. Please as you find info, do share it in this group as it will be as successful as the members within it.

Nicole, Thank You!!!!!  I am still a little unfamiliar with Reno so I am on the hunt for an Avon and Mary Kay rep.  I appreciate it and I will let you know when I get some.  Have a great weekend.

anytime Shellie...the Shea Butter I use now is by Avon...its under that Moisture Therapy group...it averages $7-8 a bottle so I just wait until they have it 50% & will STOCK UP!!!!!!! I have real sensitive skin so I cant do any of the perfumed lotions so I stick w/this & it works pretty good....I'm thinkg of trying the oatmeal one too...

Let me know if this helps.....we going to fight that "ash gene" of yours back to MOISTURE LAND!!!!!!!! lol...let me know & I will keep my ears/eyes open for any one else's master secrets for ya!!!

Thank you Nicole.  I use baby oil gel mixed with Eucerin for me and my son.  I must have some special ash gene because honey I be white by noon lol.  Who is the lotion by?  Maybe I need to try that.  Thanks again.

@ Tiff yes girl the ash has got to go lol

@ Shellie...in the past I added baby oil to my lotion & that seemed to help on the day to day....now I use Shea Butter lotion & it seems to work the best out of all the lotions I have ever tried...so much so to the point I now order my lotion a case @ a time!!!! LOL   hope this helps....

Welcome Shellie to to SkinTopics. Thanks for your question, we'll see if anyone has any feedback and try to find some for you.  LOL on #tiredofbeingashy.com ;)

I have extremely dry skin.  I mean it is dry to the point of cracking.  I heard that I could mix some olive oil with sugar and freate a paste to exfoliate and moisturize.  Does anone know if this is correct?  #tiredofbeingashy.com

Please Pray

Sistas, please pray for my family. As the SistaStrong founder I have to take my own words of advice and reach out when it is necessary. It is important we do this because our strength is not only in our own stand, our own purpose, but it is in God and it is in each other.My son and I have been battling an illness for over a month. This is one of the hardest things I've been through in my life.  Your prayers would be so appreciated, you have no idea.  Big thanks. Standing on my healing. See More
