Along with the snowflakes, gooey toasted marshmallows, and cozy cute boots come dry skin, limp lifeless hair, and a never ending battle against chapped lips. Good news is on the way because there are tips and tricks to avoid the winter blues so you can sparkle at your next holiday party!
Dry skin and eczema are unavoidable during the cool season but with the right products you won’t have to worry. The first step in having great moisturized skin starts in the shower. Check your body wash. Does it contain nutrium moisture? Nutrium moisture technology helps moisturize the skin as well as cleanse it. Our favorite body wash is Dove Moisturizing Body Wash with nutrium moisture. This body wash is the #1 dermatologist recommended body wash and has an incredibly fresh scent! Moisturizing after getting out of the shower is also key. We love using St. Ives Shea Butter lotion. It’s really light and it won’t leave you feeling sticky or greasy! Another important factor to remember is to stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water.
Limp boring hair also follows us into the winter months. Sexy Hair Concepts Hair Powder Play Volumizing and texturizing powder is a great way to give your hair back some bounce. It also works as a dry shampoo that’s great after a workout or when you’re running late for class. Generously sprinkle the powder on your fingertips and rub into your roots and style.
It’s mistletoe season, which means there’s no room for chapped lips this year. The best foolproof way to avoid cracked lips is to drink water, drink water, and drink more water! It may be no secret yet drinking water moisturizes your body from the inside out and is the most efficient way to moisturize. But when the waters not enough our favorite winter weapon is Jack Black lip balm. Celebrities like Lindsay Lohan and Bruce Willis are known to order the mint lip balm by the case. If you’re looking for a slightly cheaper solution Burt’s Bees and New VitaminWater Chap stick are both great. Plus The Vitamin Water Chap Stick tastes fantastic.
Winter brings many fun activities but it also wrecks havoc on your skins, hair and lips. But don’t let your winter dilemmas get the best of you. Just remember to stay hydrated and don’t be afraid to try new things and find what works best for you.
