Valerie, get ahold of a product called "Skin so Soft" marketed by Avon. I
know it sounds wild, but this stuff really works. it comes in different
formulations, I remember years ago using the formulation that was like an
after shower rinse. Smells pretty nice and you might offer it to your
guests or place votive candles in candle holders with a little pool of it
in the bottom or somthing like that
have fun!
