The winter time isn’t just for changing your hair and go-to nail color, it’s also for changing your beauty regimen. The weather is getting colder, which can cause puffy eyes, dehydrated skin, cracked lips, unruly hair, and so much more. You’re going to need to make changes in order to make sure your skin and hair are winter-ready — here are a few products that should help:
Ursa Major Perfect Zen Body Lotion
Moisturizer is important but so is body lotion. And nothing beats Ursa Major! This lotion works hard to deeply hydrate your skin. It contains aloe, meadowfoam, sunflower, and lavender; all very hydrating and soothing ingredients. Does the winter time usually cause your skin to get dry and itchy? It’s the weather! And you really need to make sure your body lotion conditions your skin during these harsh months.

You can use the bar soap or the liquid soap — all that matter is that you’re using Dove this winter. You want to avoid harsh products that could actually remove moisture from your skin. Dove soap is simple but it’s also very gentle. You want gentle when you’re trying to keep your skin hydrated!

Kiehl’s Ultra Facial Moisturizer SPF 30
During the winter, you really need to double up on your moisturizer and typically creams are better at hydrating than lotions.

Not to mention, it’s suitable for every skin type AND contains sunscreen. Yes, you need sunscreen in the winter too.

Whipped Argan Oil Body Butter
This stuff looks good enough to eat. But, don’t eat it. This Whipped Argan Oil Body Butter improves the skin’s texture and nourishes it. This body butter contains shea butter, white tea extract, and avocado oil that will reverse your dry skin and have it feeling fresh and hydrated. You can buy this butter in different scents, too. But if you have sensitive skin, you should opt for unscented so you don’t experience any irritation.

Kiehl’s Lip Balm #1
And because I’m still not done talking about Kiehl’s, this lip balm is JUST as good as the moisturizer. It’s incredibly hydrating and actually lasts on your lips. How many lip balms do that? Not many! Kiehl’s is a pretty heavy duty, but it doesn’t look that heavy duty which means you get the best of both worlds — constant protection without it looking like you have three layers of vaseline on your lips. FINALLY!
