Put your best face forward

Dry skin on your face is the worst! Gently exfoliating your skin at least once a week will help get rid of dead and dry skin cells clinging to the surface. Hello, miss radiant!

Viva la moisture!

Moisturizing is key to keeping skin soft and smooth. Try a moisturizer that is non-comogenic to avoid breakouts from it. Use daily, once in the morning, once at night, and any time in between as needed.

Nuts for coconut oil

Coconut oil is a natural product that’s perfect for skin! Just lather it on your face after you’ve washed it and let it do its thing for about 10 minutes. Bonus: it may even help with breakouts as it moisturizes. Use once or twice a week.

Pucker up!

Keep you lips all balmed up this season so you can still smooch your BF without frettin’. Believe it or not, your lips, just like your skin, needs exfoliating! We’re digging exfoliator-serum combos for maximum smoothness. First exfoliate and then use the serum. Voila! Your lips are good to go. Apply at least once a day.

Get the right touch

Lotion, lotion, lotion! Babes, we never need an excuse to hit up Bath and Body Works. But now you have one. Lotion is essential to keeping your hands oh so soft during the dreary winter days. Depending on how dry your skin gets, you may need to look at a deep conditioning lotion, it’s extra strong compared to the regular ones. Apply lotion as often as you need!

Bundle up

At night, try using hand gloves made especially for lotion. They may look cheesy but trust us babes, no one’s gonna see you with ‘em and they really work! Use nightly and you’re sure to see an improvement.
