I’ve partnered with Johnson’s Baby and The Motherhood for this post!

I grew up in an age when the scent of bleach meant you could trust something was really clean. My kids are growing up in a world where we no longer want to breath in or touch harsh chemicals unless absolutely necessary.  Now all I want is the most gentle of products that are effective. And it didn’t take long for me to discover that many of the kids products we had lying around could just as easily be used for adults. Here are just a few gentle beauty hacks every girl should know!

Cleaning Makeup Brushes

I’m not going to lie. I went for much of my adult life not cleaning my makeup brushes at all.  But did you know that you can use JOHNSON’S® baby shampoo to clean your makeup brushes? It is super quick and effective!

I swirl mine in a small dish with a little water and baby shampoo then pat dry on a paper towel. Voila! You’ve got clean makeup brushes.

Cracked Heels

I live in Minnesota so you can better believe that cracked heels during the cold winter months are a problem. JOHNSON’S® baby lotion is perfect for adding to your heels before bed and you’ll love that fresh, nostalgic smell around you right before bed!

Hands and Face

Be extra kind to your hands and face during the cold winter months by using JOHNSON’S® baby wash when washing your hands and JOHNSON’S® baby moisture wash as a mild face wash.  If you use JOHNSON’S® BEDTIME® baby bath when washing before bed, the scent of lavender has a calming effect to help you relax before you crawl under the sheets!

Lock in Moisture

Locking in moisture after getting out of the shower is extra important during the winter. Use JOHNSON’S® baby oil after a shower to keep your skin feeling super soft. If you don’t like the feel of traditional baby oil, try JOHNSON’S® baby oil gel. It can lock up to 10 times more moisture on wet skin than ordinary lotion can on dry skin which is exactly what I need this time of year.
