The Elevated Etiquette

🌸The Elevated Etiquette Tip🌸

Let me be clear before anything else:

Ashy skin is not a Black thing. Dry skin is not a race thing. It shows up on every complexion — it just looks different. On darker skin tones it shows as a gray or white cast. On lighter skin tones it shows as redness, flaking, and roughness. Different in appearance. Same cause. Same fix.

So this is for all of us. No exceptions.

Here are the five spots everybody skips:

🫧ONE — YOUR EYES.

Crusty corners at noon mean you didn’t wash your face this morning. Wash your face. Every morning. Get into the eye area. Done.

🫧TWO — THE WEB OF YOUR FINGERS. That little V-shaped skin between each finger? It dries out and cracks because you wash your hands constantly and moisturize nowhere near it. Lotion goes between every finger. Every time.

🫧THREE — YOUR ELBOWS. No oil glands. Cannot moisturize themselves. That is your job. Lotion after every shower — on purpose, both elbows, every day.

🫧FOUR — YOUR KNEES. The forgotten sibling of the elbow situation. Most people stop at mid-thigh. The lotion goes over the kneecap. All the way down.

🫧FIVE — YOUR FEET. Cracked heels, ashy tops, rough calluses, toenails living their best unsupervised life. Foot cream nightly. Pumice stone weekly. Trim the nails. Dry between every toe.

Four extra minutes a day.

That is all this takes. Let’s pay better attention to our whole body. .

You are moisturized from your eyes to your feet — or you are not there yet.

Let’s get there.That’s All.
