Winter is a season that our skin takes a huge hit on especially if you're dry like myself.  It seems like nothing ever really hydrates your skin sometimes and you lack radiance making you nostalgic of the summer months when your skin glistened like honey.  

I am a complete skincare junkie that invests a lot on my skin so I came up with a few items to help you beauties choose from if you need some help in the skincare department and don't know where to start. 

Cleansers

You'd be surprised at how many women do not use any type of cleanser to cleanse their skin.  Nothing is wrong with that, however if you are looking to combat oiliness, dryness, dullness or whatever the case is, then you just might want to start buying skincare that targets your issues.  A lot of people think cleansers do not matter and all you need is soap, but to be completely honest is a very important start in your skin prepping process.  A bar of soap doesn't target your large and clogged pores and dull skin which is why being more selective with your cleansers help to target your exact skincare needs for more fulfilling results.

Nars Gentle Cream Cleanser $29

Skin Type: Normal/Dry/Seasonally Dry

The Nars Gentle Cream Cleanser is another great creamy cleanser that removes dirt,makeup and impurities while maintaining your skin's moisture balance.  Being the fact that this is a creamy cleanser, this one will not get foamy or sudsy either.  This is actually my go-to cleanser at the current moment because I want to maintain my moisture balance and radiance during these cooler months being the fact that more foaming cleansers strip my skin making my skin feel parched and this does the total opposite. It's easy to use and very gentle on the skin. Copy and paste this link in your browser to buy this cleanser: http://go.magik.ly/ml/89r0/

Masks and Exfoliators 

Masks are important to incorporate into your skincare routine because it gives your skin that "Umph" it's missing from the daily routine you have.  At least 2-3 times week I am using a mask of some sort for whatever my skin needs at that exact moment.  Exfoliating is another thing that is important to do a few times a week because your skin is constantly creating new skin cells and it's best to exfoliate those dead skin cells off to rejuvenate and refresh your skin for a better appearance.

This mask is great to use on face and dry body patches such as elbows and knees!
