Whether we like it or not, winter is on its way. As you guys probably know by now, I do not like the cold weather — I’m team summer all the way and really don’t mind sweltering afternoons and glaring sun! I know we’re only about a month or so into fall but here in Oregon it’s already starting to feel like winter, especially mornings! Waking up to the kind of dark that feels like it’s midnight is just wrong, are you with me?
My fall/winter routine means spending more time indoors (sigh) and getting less sleep thanks to an amped-up schedule. And with the holiday season not too far away, it’s going to get even crazier! That said, the one thing that always helps me stay focused and positive, even on those super gloomy winter days, is my workout sessions. No matter how crazy things get, I can always count on my zumba class to put some pep in my step! It gives me that #girlboss feeling of being put together and ready to take on the world.
That’s why I make it a priority and set aside a minimum of three hours a week to workout, especially during winter months. On days when I am feeling low and sluggish or totally un-motivated (it’s just so hard to step out in that nasty weather sometimes!), I remind myself about the end game. Will skipping this workout make me feel better or worse? The answer is obvious! And to stay on top of my fitness game, I try to always be ready for the gym, which of course means smoothly shaven legs and arms! When it comes to shaving my legs, I like to use a razor that gets a super close, smooth shave and gives me the maximum amount of time between shaves. Enter my new favorite, BIC® Soleil® Glow® Razor!
BIC® Soleil® Glow® Razors feature a COMFORT SHIELD® head that evenly distributes pressure, effortlessly glides and helps protect skin from irritation. It has 3 flexible blades that individually adjust to all your curves while the ergonomic, rubber-grip handle and pivoting head makes it easy for getting hard to reach places like the ankles and knees. Another plus is that the blades have vitamin E and aloe enriched lubricating strips for soothing dry skin.
Also, I love their pretty pastel colored handles and covers! Those covers are really useful and stay in place until I slide them off (great for travel)! And best of all, a pack of 3 razors retails for under $7…can’t beat the value!
After shaving, I always, always make sure to apply lots of moisturizer to lock in hydration. With cold weather comes the dry skin, so this is one step I never skip to keep my legs looking smooth and shiny! My favorite for the fall/winter season is the Lavanila Healthy body butter (Vanilla Grapefruit). Not only is the formula very soothing & hydrating but also has a feel-good citrusy sweet scent that I really like. Aaaand, voila! All I need is a cute zumba top and I’m ready to make my own sun!
From the beautiful sunny colors to the fabulously silky-smooth shave, the BIC® Soleil® Glow® Razor is one of my must-haves to help me get through those dreary winter days! Try it out if you also need a little extra help in the perk-me-up department during the cold fall and winter seasons.

First off, I love your commitment to fitness. Second I absolutely love the Vanila Vanilla Grapefruit lotion. I have never applied it after shaving. I will give this a try. Great Post.

They look SO much better than the regular BIC razors! I also ALWAYS moisturize after shaving or showering, otherwise I’ll just start peeling like a snake…
