Few things in life feel better than when your skin is perfectly hydrated and smooth. With winter temperatures showing no signs of letting up, the cold air tends to dry out our skin, giving it a scaly and rough texture I like to call “lizard legs.” Or maybe you’re just susceptible to dry skin, no matter the time of year. We’re often asked how to achieve silky soft skin and hair year-round, which is part of the reason that Fur was created.
Here are our three secrets to silky soft skin, however that looks for you.
Hydration
Whether you’re implementing a nighttime moisturizing routine or ensuring you drink eight glasses of water a day, hydration makes skin happy. Skin thrives on hydration, however you provide it. If you’re looking for a natural moisturizer, Fur’s Stubble Cream provides hydrating smoothness to both your skin and your fur. In addition to keeping a water bottle close by and moisturizing daily with Stubble Cream, add a supplemental routine by treating your skin to Fur Oil, which includes key ingredients of grape seed oil and jojoba oil. Grape seed oil includes hydrating vitamin complexes E, D, and C, and jojoba oil is known to imitate natural hydration properties that your skin already possesses. It’s a lightweight oil, too - meaning your skin gets all the moisture without feeling greasy post-application.
Exfoliation
Soft skin is waiting underneath the dead skin cells that naturally occur, which is why exfoliation is such an important skincare practice. Fur’s Silk Scrub both exfoliates (with a quick massage) and acts as an exfoliating mask (if you want to leave it on for 10 minutes and let it do the work for you). We recommend using the Silk Scrub 2-3 times a week for maximum smoothness, and to make sure you’re always a step ahead of the dead skin. A couple of the Silk Scrub’s key ingredients are papaya and pineapple enzymes, which kiss away dead skin cells, revealing your skin’s natural glow.
Soothing
If you’re implementing a hair-removal process such as shaving or waxing, you may be susceptible to ingrown hairs, which could be the only thing standing between you and your silky soft skin. That’s why we created our Ingrown Concentrate. Its key ingredients include tamanu oil, which boasts antioxidants which makes the skin smoother, and tea tree oil to help prevent ingrowns from happening in the first place.
The soothing, natural ingredients that comprise our products were concocted with smooth skin in mind - they remove any irritation, soften dead skin cells and fur alike, and reveal your gorgeous skin in its natural glory.
