Winter is far from over, but who doesn’t love the season of holidays, festive-flavored latte’s, and picturesque snow-filled landscapes. Unfortunately, the low temperatures and dry air can take a toll on our skin and hair. With that being said, I have compiled a list of 8 beauty essentials that will solve all your winter woes!
The Products
1. Burt’s Bees Ultra Conditioning Lip Balm ($3.99)
Say goodbye to chapped lips! With just one application, the Burt’s Bees Ultra Conditioning Lip Balm provides lips with moisture for up to 4 hours. The 100% natural balm is enriched with hydrating kokum, shea and cocoa butters that nourish lips to give a smooth and supple appearance. Buy at ULTA.
2. Dr. Bronner’s Baby Unscented Organic Magic Balm ($7.99)
Made with Fair Trade and all organic ingredients, Dr. Bronner’s is a go-to brand when looking for effective beauty products to get you through the winter months. Their newly released Organic Magic Balm is a must-have this season. Made from a soothing blend of organic beeswax, organic coconut, and jojoba oils, this balm safely soothes skin and provides instant relief to dry or cracked areas. Buy at DRBRONNER.
3. LIPS by ToGoSpa Collagen Gel Lip Masks ($12.50)
We’ve all heard of the amazing benefits of facial masks, but lip masks are becoming the next big thing. The Coconut Lip Masks by ToGoSpa are amazingly effective for treating dry or chapped lips. Infused with Vitamins C & E and an assortment of other natural ingredients, these lip masks instantly hydrate lips to create a more full and moisturized appearance. Another benefit of using these lip masks is they also decrease the appearance of fine lines around the mouth. Buy at TOGOSPA.
4. Vaseline Intensive Care Essential Healing Lotion ($3.49)
Protect your skin this cold winter season with Vaseline’s Intensive Care Healing Lotion. Infused with micro-droplets of Vaseline® Jelly and rich moisturizers, this lotion absorbs deeply into skin to heal and hydrate from within. This line of Intensive Care lotions is available in 3 different variants: Advanced Repair, Cocoa Radiant, and Essential Healing. Buy at TARGET.
5. Coastal Salt & Soul Blushing Peony Heavenly Hand Cream ($10)
One beauty product that I never leave the house without during the cold winter months is hand cream. Your hands are exposed to more harmful elements than most other parts of the body so don’t let them dry out this winter season! The Coastal Salt & Soul Heavenly Hand Cream is a must-have for Winter and also my latest obsession. It’s fast-absorbing formula is infused with shea butter, avocodo oil, and jojoba oil that all work together to moisturize, sooth, and rejuvenate hands. Buy at COASTALSALTANDSOUL.
6. L’anza Keratin Healing Oil Hair Treatment ($45)
While it’s important to keep lips and skin hydrated, keeping hair protected from winter’s harsh elements is just as crucial. The L’anza Hair Treatment helps heel hair with it’s powerful Keratin Healing System. The Keratin proteins reconstruct hair’s inner layers to add both body and volume. The treatment is also infused with Phyto IV Complex which hydrates hair from within to create silky smooth strands. This treatment also doubles as a thermal protection spray for temperatures up to 500 F. Buy at ULTA.
7. Lavanila The Healthy Body Butter – Fragrance Free ($19)
The all-natural Lavanila Body Butter is a must-have this winter. Made with all organic and fragrance-free ingredients, this body butter absorbs instantly into skin for a deep hydration. Ingredients include powerful antioxidants and 100% pure shea and cocoa butters to give skin long-lasting nourishment. The line of Lavanila body butters is also available in a variety of scented flavors that are great as well! Buy at SEPHORA.
8. Avalon Organics Intense Defense Antioxidant Oil ($14.99)
To keep skin hydrated during the coldest of months, I highly recommend using an oil or serum on top of your regular moisturizer. My current favorite is Avalon Organic’s Intense Defense Antioxidant Oil. Infused with a blend of apricot, raspberry, and argan oil, this antioxidant oil absorbs quickly into skin to lock in moisture and protect the surface against environmental stressors such as chilly temperatures. The formula is rich in Vitamin C and other essential vitamins which reinforce skin’s natural lipid barrier. Buy at WALGREENS.
