I mentioned the glycerin in the hair thread but glycerin is great for people of color because it's a natural humectant. I add it to my lotions along with vitamin see and my skin remains soft, tight and supple.

I also add it to my shampoos to maintain pliability even before conditioning.


And 2 tips I learned recently:

How to get candle wax drippings off the floor. Take wax paper and place it on top of the droppings. Iron over it on low heat and the wax should stick to the wax paper.


Keep pieces of bread in a box of cookies to keep them moist.

Oh and sleeping in silicone lined socks and/or gloves keep them soft. You can add vaseline or a mixture of glycerin and lotion to it as well. And you can try just vaseline and socks. That is if you can stomach sleeping in socks.

I don't have a problem with it because I'm obsessed with looking younger.

I have something to help clear,clean and even your face up.It is a natural home remedy.It makes your face very,very smooth and cleans your pores.I use it 2 times a day.This works for men also.

You need to have baking soda,1 lemon,water,and virgin olive oil. There isnt a set amount that you have to measure.You combine all in a bowl or container,and mix until you have a paste. Then you pur it on your face and let it sit for 10-15 minutes. Rinse off with your hand in the shower,if you use a rag be gentle because you dont want to irritate your skin. The best thing to do is do it once in the morning and before bed. If you have a good face mosturizer thats even better. You will start to notice the softness instantly, and the evening off your skin tone will show in about a week.

As you know,many people also use lemon on their knees and elbows,the acid in it helps lighten dark spots.If someone tries it,let me know how it works for you.

By the way,you can store it in the refrigerator for future use.HTH

I'm single, but I'm from old school

- hot showers in the morning and before bed. I use dial soap, momma got a nigga trained from childhood not to switch up.
- wash my face with Zirh products
- brush teeth in the shower
- shave in the shower.
- spray shower with Tilex Shower Clean
- mouthwash, I use Neutragena Bath Oil, Unscented, all over while still damp !
- wipe of my sink area, no hair, none of that.
-empty bathroom trash ( condom paper, and etc. That's rude and very immature to have a nasty house, and women come over on the regular. )

- make my bed -mama got me trained
- straighten up in the morning (vacuum, start my dishwasher)
- start a load of clothes, I never let that shit build up.

I have an oil burner, I normally light it until I leave for work. Got it from Bed, Bath , & Bodyworks !

I eat at home, so I'll prep for dinner, marinate my chicken breast, pork chops, something. I rarely do the eating out, mostly weekends.

I get my carpet professionally steam every 4-5 months.

When you fuck Cameo, you'll feel at home, have a good hot meal, AND A THROBBIN PUSSY at the end of the night !

I'm with you on the carpet cleaning. I'm actually a bit anal about that.

I also follow the custom of taking my shoes off and leaving them at the door before coming into the house.

And I now request guests to do the same.

Brings less germs that you can track from the outside into your house.

Need some help with a household tip:

How does one get gum residue (or whatever was on the bottom of this idiot's filthy shoes ) off of my wooden floors? I do not want to ruin the finish of the floor and have to re-sand and re-seal it.

Home Depot suggested using ice on it (which I haven't tried yet), but looking for other suggestions.

I want to kill this idiot, which is why people need to leave their shoes at the door when they enter my place.

Goo-gone is magical. That stuff really works.

Goo-gone is safe for floors, carpet and even car paint. They now have a gel formula. You do have to get used to its citrus smell.

I'm sure they had fun in the marketing department thinking up the name and possible other uses for the product.

If you have to reheat mashed potatoes, put a SPLASH of milk in there and cover loosely. It will bubble up on top, but when you stir them up, they'll whip up again like they're fresh.
