NYC’s metro areas have been fortunate enough to experience warmer temperatures for this time of year. However, there have been a few really cold days, and with cooler temperatures on the horizon you need to pay extra attention to your skin. The #1 winter skin problem that many of us complain about is dryness. With this issue in mind, here are a few of the best products to keep your skin healthy and moisturized during the winter…
Dove VisibleCare Renewing Creme Body Wash {$7.49, walgreens.com} This ultra creamy wash gives new life to your skin as it cleanses and moisturizes. After bathing, your skin feels seductively soft, and there’s less of a need to pack on any heavy lotions.
Carol’s Daughter Love Butter {18, carolsdaugther.com} This skin saviour busts’ ash like no other! Especially if you have really dry skin in the winter, the rich blend of shea butter, cocoa butter, and sweet almond oil will have your body feeling as smooth as a baby’s bottom.
Rosebud Salve {$7, Sephora.com} Usually termed as a “cult favorite,” Rosebud Salve is that classic all-purpose balm that you should have in your purse at all times. Mostly used for conditioning lips, Rosebud is also beneficial for elbows, knees, and after care on minor cuts.
Aveeno Smart Essentials Daily Nourishing Moisturizer {12.47, drugstore.com} With SPF 30, Aveeno’s new Smart Essentials moisturizer allows you to protect your skin from sun damage. The sun actually beams a little more in the winter, and the UVA/UVB protection is just enough to safeguard your pride and joy.
L’Occitane Shea Butter Mini Hand Cream {$10, usa.loccitane.com} I have been around the hand cream block and back, but I have NEVER come across a hand cream as moisturizing as L’Occitane’s Shea Butter. Kind of surreal. No lie!
