Topic: Go to the beach for a beauty treatment! Posted: Aug 19 2014 at 8:13pm |
So I recently came back last week from a beach vacation ! I thought my hair would be dried out from daily sea water drenching. At nite I'd co-wash w/ Suave conditioner, and the last evening before we left I shampooed w/ shea moisture, and left a slight amount of conditioner in before twisting.
My skin is soooo soft from the sand exfoliation, and my hair was tangle-free, shiny, and made a fantastic twist out that I strutted around with at work for the past 2 days, lol! It feels wonderful.
So I ask BHM--does anyone else notice these great benefits from spending a few days at the beach?
And why weren't more of yall down there either? Black folks were scarce at the beaches I went to at the gulf coast....

I have a sun allergy. (go figure... :-() The 50 SPF was just par for the course on south beach. I now have hives all over my body but my tan is okay. As far as my hair, In box braids so can't tell. Besides my hives and Sun burn, I love the beach. Glad you got tons of benefits

Absolutely 1. Darker/healthier looking skin... practically glowing 2. More calm spirit and relieved of stress

I love the beach. The sea air does me good.
I'm there about every other week.

I recharge at the beach. My skin glows and the sea water and air invigorates me. That sand exfoliates my feet in a wonderful way.

Hawaiian Tropic Silk Hydration SPF 50 You might want something stronger but this one smells great, gives a great glow and I immediately stop burning once I apply it
