In a few weeks time I'm going to have the opportunity for some concerted dressing time. So the countdown has begun.
First things first. Shave those legs. I'd almost forgotten how good that feels. I shave my chest anyway but that got a going over to.
Next, start to apply some Dove summer glow tan, you know, the one that builds colour slowly so you don't end up looking like an umpha lumpha. Not just to the legs but also to the top of the arms, shoulders and chest. Need to hide those farmers arms and the polo shirt V neck tan. If you're wearing scoop neck tees or anything lower cut then that polo neck V tan sticks out a mile away.
Of course going on in the background is deciding what to wear. As I'll be away from home there's a limit to what I can take so careful planning is called for.
Check the makeup bag. Am I low on anything. If yes then get it in advance. Don't want to be messing around wasting valuable dressing time. Ok I could shop for it enfem while away but I'm not yet that confident in my getting out there journey. Out and about yes but not yet shopped. Baby steps still.
Eyebrows, need to start gentle shaping. Thin out arm hair. Loose the knuckle hair altogether. Armpits, I'm sure I've forgotten something but there's just so much planning needs to go into this.

Helen,
I await the adventures with great trepidation.
Just avoid the floods. :)

It's OK Bev, it stopped raining today for at least an hour... :heehee: Actually spring might well have arrived...

Helen - what an exciting time! Great tips too - you must keep us updated as you think of more things... Like the Dove summer glow. I like getting tanned but this early... need something synthetic but subtle so I'll try that.

I envy you the anticipation, but hope that you'll continue to share it with us... :)

yes it is VERY close to self tanner time....Time to start building that base up like Helen said...I was just thinking about this the other day..it is on the shopping list for my next drug store excursion. I get nerdy with my planning...and make lists...i either start from the top (wig) and work my way down to make sure i got everything I need down to shoes and manicured toes...or visa versa...( nerd alert)
