why is Ashy considered unattractive?

NativeTongue · (#1 (**permalink**))

is this a form of self-hate.

I don't get it. Why would not wanting to have dry skin be a form of self hate?

Aryek · (#3 (**permalink**))

Actually it would be a form of "self-love" because your getting rid of a dry, greyish-white film to let a bright, natural brown skin tone shine through. What is wrong with that? confused3

Ashy doesn't have anyrthing to do with the colour of the skin........its about dryness.

Hey chi,

the fact that your skin itches means that perhaps you are using a soap or skin product that is too harsh or you are sensitive to. Check the ingredients, some brands tear my skin up.

@BP, so that bottle of cocoa butter on the nightstand is for your legs, right?

My skin is fussy as hell and I have to cream every single part of it-particularly during winter. Those that know me laugh at long it takes me to cream myself. But a) I have to do it-I have problem skin and b) I get the last laugh when my skin looks great during the summer.
