All hail to the First Lady, Michelle Obama! Not since Jackie O has a nation been so enamored with the wife of a sitting President. Aside from the obvious, Michelle catches and keeps our attention not because she’s black, but because she represents the epitome of class and sophistication.

While Michelle’s fashion sense is celebrated, emulated and documented, there are still people who scoff at her decision to wear clothing that reveals more skin than the previous First Ladies; naysayer’s listen up – don’t hate the player, hate the game. Beyond her clothing, it’s apparent that Mrs. Obama takes great pride in all aspects of her appearance which reminds us all to do the same.

There’s something to be said for glowing skin as evidenced here – it makes an impact when you’re wearing a strapless number or when your arms and much of your neckline are on display. A dress alone isn’t enough, so put a little more effort into your look by using an oil moisturizer like Alba Botanica’s Kukui Nut Organic Body Oil ($9.95, albabotanica.com) on your exposed parts. Blended with tropical nut oils for a silky feel that leaves your skin feeling soft, you can’t go wrong with this oil.

Bare Hands White Tea & Licorice Hand Renewal Brightening Balm ($2.99, freemanbeauty.com). Impress everyone with hands that are luminous, soft and chapped-free. The two main ingredients in this balm to help brighten and combat the signs of aging are white tea leaf and licorice extract.
