i love this. i really enjoy doing things the challenging way lately. it’s an opportunity to really focus on the task at hand and get lost in doing something. so many things are quick and easy but not as rewarding or so mindless that you’re not even engaging, just getting through it to move on to the next mindless thing. that’s how the days start slipping by and feeling far away or meaningless. all that to say, imma moisturize the hell out of my legs this week.
emily, it’s so nice to see you here after reading so many of your glossier pieces over the years!
a cousin gifted me with a gallon-sized bottle of kiehl’s creme de corps last christmas and i ended up decanting some of it into like, twelve bottles to give away. i think finishing this giant thing is my moisturizing endeavor for now.
Loved this piece. I'm actually a big moisturiser fan - love a body oil (although it's not exactly convenient for getting dressed quickly), and a body butter will never not feel indulgent. I too have the Aveeno eczema relief... always gotta keep it on hand for when those little patches strike.
This reminded me of the unused kate McLeod body stone sitting in my drawer. What it lacks in application difficulty it makes up with butteriness and the emotional satisfaction of being a person who massages her legs
I keep it in the cheesecloth AND in the bamboo (I think?) box. So chic. When I travel, just the cheesecloth. Sex stone has more slip (so even less work)
As a en eczema sufferer, I very much enjoyed this short post. If you ever see the Aveeno body oil, you should try it because it smells so nice and it feels so moisturising
I bought the flamingo one after you mentioned it and loved it! It fits perfectly in my cabinet so finally after all these years, I can apply moisturizer right out of the shower

Do you keep it wrapped in cheesecloth? I do. I only have the sex stone (gifted)...not sure it differs from the others though

Ah yes the box how could I forget
