Top 5 Winter Beauty Products

I think it's pretty safe to say that we all hate that our skin get sooo dry during the winter. Following are a few of my favorite products that help me stay moisturized through the cold!



MAC Prep + Prime Skin


I prefer this primer a lot better over Smashbox Photo Finish during the winter.


Jergens Natural Glow Firming Moisturizer

I've used this product for a long time and recently came upon the firming one. Love this because it keep my tan going throughout the winter, and I actually notice the firming effect.


Smashbox Emulsion Lip Exfoliant

My lips get dry and cracked so easy when it's cold. As long as I use this stuff at least once a week I really don't have problems with dry lips. I find it works best when I use it in the shower.


Burt's Bees Lemon Butter Cuticle Cream

I bite my nails (which I realize is a disgusting habit that I've been trying to break my whole life) and my cuticles really take a beating from it. Combine that with cold ass weather and I have myself some gnarly looking fingers! This stuff works great and smells good!


Olay Body Butter Ribbons with Joboba Butter

I've never been able to find a body wash that left my skin actually feeling moisturized after I got out of the shower. After I step out of the shower and dry off I feel like I've had lotion soaking into my skin for a few minutes. Not a greasy feeling, just moisturized. It's great!








I know none of these are new products, but are definitely my tried & true. Let me know if you've used any of these & what you thought!
