Winter Lip Protection

Fall and winter seasons can bring on harsh weather for the skin, particularly for the lips, as they are commonly neglected. Caring for the lips is essential, especially if you want them to stay full and beautiful.

Exfoliating the lips is best to do 1-2 times weekly; I suggest gentle products like Pevonia Youthful Lip Retinol Serum or Yonka Alpha Contour.

In addition to regular exfoliation, hydrating the lips will keep them from becoming chapped and dry during the cold weather. Peptide Lip Therapy from PCA Skin provides anti-aging benefits as well as protection against free radical damage. La Roche-Posay Ceralip Lip Repair Cream enriches the lips with lipids. this product works especially well for sensitive skin and Accutane users.

Relief for Dry Body

Dry skin on the body not only looks bad, but causes irritation and discomfort as well. Dry skin leads to skin disorders such as eczema, which can be difficult to deal with. Dry skin can be caused by the environment, hot water, climate changes and changes in diet.

Proper hydration and moisture are essential. Consider the HydraContinue Moisturizing Body Milk by Phytomer. Its lightweight formula is great for everyday use, yet still provides vital moisture to the skin cells. For highly reactive and sensitive skin try the Phytomer Accept Neutralizing Body Lotion.

Newborns and young ones also experience severely dry skin. Heal chapped and parched skin with Mustela Stelatopia Moisturizing Cream. This is ideal for eczema-prone skin, yet gentle enough for babies.

How about something organic for that dry body? I recommend Eminence Naseberry Body Lotion to smooth and restore skin. Organically grown ingredients and powerful antioxidants fight free radical damage.

Nouriva Repair Moisturizing Cream is perfect for extremely dry skin and also for mature skin types as it is very healing as well.
