As the title says, How do you do simple beauty?


Scandinavia, warm but mild summers, cold and dry winters.
28yo, 1A hair, normal/dry-ish skin, 1C/F/i hair

For me, hair is my biggest focus right now, I’ve recently started to strip my hair from silicones again. I’m not sure what my next step will be tho. I’ve done CO washes before and I might go back to that.
The shampoo I’m using is from Coop Änglamark (if you click on “produktfakta” you get the ingredients).

My skincare isn’t very regular, especially when I’m stressed so I got a cleanser that is a bit stronger, L300 Deep Cleansing Gel, I’m not sure I’m super happy with that choice.
For moisture, I use Nivea, a classic here in Sweden.
As for my body, I use a lotion from Coop Änglamark, one of the few I don’t feel sticky after using.

When shaving I use a safety razor and shaving foam gel, I think next time I’ll buy shaving soap as I already have a brush. (it’s nice to test new things once in a while)
I do get razor bumps/ingrown hairs when shaving the bikini area so I recently got an aftershave to see if it helps, so I’ll see if I can figure out if I can make my own.
According to Shenet (Swedish page) an aftershave is practically water or cream with some alcohol or other disinfectant in it.
