IT'S NOT EASY BEING A SOUTHERN BELLE-EVEN AFTER YEARS OF PRACTICE!

KEEPING UP APPEARANCES!

It is NOT easy keeping up appearances-once you reach a certain age! I know when I step out of the door that this "natural" look appears effortless-BUT! Let me give you the sequence of the day that leads to "A La Naturale":

Beginning of the day: a 3 step skin regime for the face-with 5 minutes between each step. That is BEFORE you begin applying makeup.

Soak my feet for 5-10 minutes-per dermatologist and then apply cream

Showering with liberal use of a razor-following with sunless tanning cream-followed by moisturizer.

I am GOOD TO GO.

The fun part comes at night:

Remove the day's make up (the part that remains after a good workout full of sweat).

Another foot soak and cream application.

A scalp massage with lotion recommended by dermatologist (she obviously has NO LIFE).

The face regime with another 3 steps .

The lash application to promote growth.

MANY days another shower (remember I work out A LOT) with more application of moisturizer.

None of this begins to enumerate the hours of exercise SIX days a week!

After all that though-----the results are so worth it! I LOVE THE NATURAL LOOK!
