The Newest Addition to my Beauty Regime

Many years ago, in a land far, far away, I was worked for beauty companies doing make-up, massage, some skin care consultations, and discussing the right shampoo and styling options for every kind of hair.  It was a magical time, full of mascara, push up bras, hairspray, and dressing all in black a la Johnny Cash.

My beauty regime during this time was INSANE!  Full of eye creams, skin scrubs, and every new product I could get my hands on.  I think I even used a skin corrector at one point that was clearly not for white people.

As the years have gone on, my beauty routine has gone from complicated to uncomplicated.  Some coconut oil all over the bod and face.  Done and Done.  If I'm really feeling wild, a couple of dabs of hippie perfume and maybe I will push my pecs together with the demi cup bra.  But there is one thing I have added to my daily beauty tasks that I never saw coming...not in all of my wildest body care fantasies did I imagine I would be...

SHAVING CALLOUSES.

Yes non-crossfit folks.  You have to shave the fucking callouses off your hands.  You build callouses doing all of that work on the bar and then you have to shave them down to prevent them from ripping off the next time.  I promise you in all of my days at Victoria's Secret, AVEDA, and MAC I never dreamed I would ever, ever, ever be shaving callouses.  It goes like this:  shave legs, shave under arms, shave lady parts, shave callouses.  Maybe not in that order.

Have a beautiful day, my loves and remember to shave your hands hahahahahah!!!!
