How To Keep Your Skin and Hair Beautiful During Winter!

Since it is snowing right now and the air is dry I thought I'd give you my secret tips to keeping healthy glowing skin and hair. I should really follow this more myself but I have a few tricks and tips to keeping your skin and hair moisturized and not dry.

My number 1 top secret is coconut oil! Coconut oil is GOD. Everything about it is amazing. I use an organic coconut oil so there's nothing bad about it. Before I go to bed after I wash my face I use CO on my face, on my scalp (not a lot just a thin layer), always make sure you get your neck, elbows, knees, legs after I take a shower! Everywhere! I use the one from Cunningham Farms. It keeps everything set for the winter time!

For my curly, frizzy hair conditioning it is must! I deep condition my hair 2 twice a week. This might mean I have to wake up an extra half hour earlier to do so. Especially since it's cold and I air dry my hair it takes longer to dry. Sometimes I will use the defuser on my hair dryer to make it at least half dry so I don't get sick. But always conditioning your hair will help keep the moisture in and dryness OUT!

My favorite kind lotions always come from The Body Shop! I've been using them for years and I love them. I usually put lotion on before I go to bed and wake up feeling great! I always carry small handbag lotions from Bath and Body Works just in case! 

One of my favorite new products that I've been using a lot this winter is the Burt's Bees Lemon Butter Cuticle Cream. I'm sure everyone can agree when I say nails are the hardest to maintain. I always feel like my nail cuticles are peeling but not with this! I put it on every morning after I finish my makeup. I've notice a big difference since!

LIPS LIPS LIPS!!!!!! I can't explain how important keeping your lips moisturized!!!! I keep legit 2 lip glosses, chapsticks, sugar lip scrubs in my purse or jacket at all times during winter! There's nothing worse then talking to someone with chapped lips. I feel like that's all you focus on. DO NOT lick your lips while outside! You don't want Kylie lips that are chapped... My favorites are Vaseline lip therapy (it's tiny and will fit anywhere!), Fresh Sugar Lips (Amazing! But very expensive...I got one last year or the year before for my b-day gift from Sephora! Still have it! A little goes a long way!), Baby Lips by Maybelline, EOS lip balm (if you feel like your lip sphere is dry take a plastic knife or knife and shave off around it. It should make it soft again.), and Burt's Bees!  

Keeping your skin healthy and glowy is essential during winter. It's hard to keep up because as humans we get lazy but true not to be lazy this winter! You are going to thank yourself in the end!

Let me know what your favorite products are for winter time! I'm always up for trying new ones!!!

Lots of Love,

Girl Talk : EOS Vs. Sugar

                                                  {Pic}                                                                                       {Pic}

Hey Everyone! Today I have a Girl Talk post for you. If you don't know what that is it's when I talk about different subjects (mostly makeup...) and tell you what I feel about it. Remember it's totally 100% my own opinion! I'm not being sponsored by any companies unless stated in the post as well. I just want to give you the advice I've found from over the years! 

Well, it's starting to get very cold where I live so lip balm is a must! No one wants chapped lips now do we...This past week I've been experimenting with different lip balms and I've come to a conclusion! But before I tell you I want to battle the two I've chosen. 

"EOS Lip Balm"

LIKES

-Like the cute packaging. Always a convocation starter when I take it out and the person I'm with has never heard about it.  

-Like the flavor of the mint! I also have Summer Fruit and Strawberry Sorbet! But I think the mint one is my favorite!

-Like that it's 95% organic and 100% natural so there's nothing that can potentially kill me in the long run! ;D 

-Like the price! $2.99 at Target! I'll take that!

DISLIKES

-Dislike that it's not smoother on my lips.

-Dislike that it doesn't stay on as long as I want it too.

So basically I like it but I don't at the same time. I think EOS should put something that will make your lips smoother in it like the Sugar lips one. Overall I do like it and will use it but not as much as Sugar. 

"Sugar Lip Treatment"

LIKES

-Like the packaging! Nothing special but I like that it can fit in my pocket which I like. 

-Like that every time I use it my lips are very smooth! 

-Like that it has SPF 15

DISLIKE

-The price....$28 for a mini sample of lip balms is a very high price but it's so good!

Overall I LOVE this product and hate to say this but I would deff pay the $28 for it. I got a sample of it for my birthday gift and absolutely LOVE it! 

I surgest both of these products to anyone! I really do! I would say use Sugar in the morning and at night and EOS during the day! Hope you enjoyed this post! Don't forget to comment what lip balms you like to use!
