Afternoon beauty fix: How to keep your soft, summer legs all winter long
Ever since I traded in bare legs and skirts for long pants and wool socks, my legs feel dry, itchy, and are ridden with little red bumps. How can I salvage them between now and next summer?
In our opinion, there’s nothing worse than itchy thighs and flaky calves. Zoolander nearly had it right when he said, “Moisture is the essence of wetness, and wetness is the essence of beauty”—the only point he missed is that exfoliating is also the essence of moisture. Sloughing off dry skin is key to giving your cells a healthy flow of sebum, and Consonant’s 20% Clay Exfoliating Cleansing Bar ($18, consonantbody.com) is a sure-fire way to make that happen. It’s made from certified organic clay (from Québec, no less) that removes impurities, while the included loofah dismisses dry, dilapidated cells. Use it now, next spring, and forever to guarantee smooth and hydrated stems, no matter how many layers of clothes they’re buried under.
