Winter Skin

While we were all mourning the loss of the great Justin Timberlake to Jessica Biel and watching all of the leaves fall off the trees, our skin was starting to dry out.  Fall and winter, as I'm sure you know, are rough times for our skin.  Between the elements and the heater, our skin turns from soft and smooth to dry and sometimes flaky.  One of the most important things you can do for your skin is to stay hydrated.  Even if you don't feel like drinking cold water on a cold day, drink water anyway because it helps keep your skin looking pretty.  It's also important to keep your bathwater lukewarm because hot water dries out skin.  Using gentle cleanser and rich moisturizers are also important.

Moisturizing

 

 

TOCCA's Stella Bagno Profumato Body Wash and Crema Da Corpo Body Lotion are nice for everyday use for just about anybody.  TOCCA's paraben-free gentle cleanser conditions skin with olive oil, honey and candula extract.  Stella Crema da Corpo has natural extracts from sweet almond oil, shea butter and honey to moisturize and soothe winter dryness and sensitivity. Another benefit is that it absorbs quickly and nicely into the skin.

More Moisturizing
 

Bliss Naked Body Butter Maximum Moisture Cream has been their #1 body cream for over a decade.  Formulated for professional massages, it will seriously soften skin with coconut oil, lock in moisture with sodium hyaluronate and nourish with vitamin E.  Best of all, it has no smell so you can wear it anywhere or with any fragrance.

Besides winning the Ladies' Home Journal's 'Do Good' stamp, Four Truffles Body Smoother and Body Butter are the perfect combination to fight seriously dry winter skin.  Four Truffles Body Smoother is a natural sugar scrub that gently smoothes away dry skin and contains botanical oils,  organic Argan Oil, Shea Butter, and olive oil to nourish skin.  Four Truffles Body Butter uses argan oil, olive oil, virgin coconut oil, aloe and vitamin E to keep skin summertime-soft.  I personally advise buying both with the body wash, which is great for those not-so-rough areas of skin along with the concentrated argan oil for super dry areas.
