With winter weather comes dry, cracked skin and other skin problems. Next to that you often start scratching your dry skin which results in little wounds on your face and a horrible look and more importantly a horrible feel! Impossible to fix this with concealer as you've all probably tried....
It makes you dream of a summery glow on your cheeks. Unfortunately we're not quite there yet.
I have two little tips for you to get your skin through winter!
Recently I started using 8 hour cream by Elizabeth Arden.
It's a cream which was invented in 1930 so it has a big history to it. Its name comes from when it was first used on a little wound which closed up the wound in 8 hours. It has a bit of a mythical status but I had never used it up till recently so I just HAD to try it!
You can't see it very well on this picture but the cap of the tube has little 8s all over it. I also love the simple design of the packaging.
It has quite a special smell to it. It's smells a bit herbal with a hint of citrus and has the texture of vaseline. The smell is strange at first but in a way it gives me an energy boost so I actually like it a lot. At first I was a bit hesitant to be putting this greasy substance on my face but it really works. My skin glows and little blemishes dissappear much faster. Also perfect for dry lips!
Second tip is this mud mask. From time to time it is really nice to be using a mask as extra protection for your skin in winter. I try to use it every two weeks. This mud mask by Skin truth is for oily combination skin and is enriched with dead sea mud. It contains orange blossom and ginger to give your face that extra glow again. I love the way my skin feels after using it. It feels balanced and relaxed.
And isn't that a great feeling, inside and out?
Take care of yourselves!
Happy Girl Dreaming.
