Stop dry skin before it starts

 
The weather outside is frightful… well, maybe not yet but it soon will be! And with the cold weather comes dry skin. But babes, it doesn’t have to be like that. Don’t have a love hate relationship with your skin. You can maintain baby soft skin all through the winter season with a little preppin’ now. Start this regimen and you’ll be all set to have that cuddle session with your crush.

    Put your best face forward

     

    Dry skin on your face is the worst! Gently exfoliating your skin at least once a week will help get rid of dead and dry skin cells clinging to the surface. Hello, miss radiant!

    Viva la moisture!

     

    Moisturizing is key to keeping skin soft and smooth. Try a moisturizer that is non-comogenic to avoid breakouts from it. Use daily, once in the morning, once at night, and any time in between as needed.

    Nuts for coconut oil

     

    Coconut oil is a natural product that’s perfect for skin! Just lather it on your face after you’ve washed it and let it do its thing for about 10 minutes. Bonus: it may even help with breakouts as it moisturizes. Use once or twice a week.

    Pucker up!

     

    Keep you lips all balmed up this season so you can still smooch your BF without frettin’. Believe it or not, your lips, just like your skin, needs exfoliating! We’re digging exfoliator-serum combos for maximum smoothness. First exfoliate and then use the serum. Voila! Your lips are good to go. Apply at least once a day.

    Get the right touch

     

    Lotion, lotion, lotion! Babes, we never need an excuse to hit up Bath and Body Works. But now you have one. Lotion is essential to keeping your hands oh so soft during the dreary winter days. Depending on how dry your skin gets, you may need to look at a deep conditioning lotion, it’s extra strong compared to the regular ones. Apply lotion as often as you need!

    Bundle up

     

    At night, try using hand gloves made especially for lotion. They may look cheesy but trust us babes, no one’s gonna see you with ‘em and they really work! Use nightly and you’re sure to see an improvement.

So lately I've been having dry, red, and itchy skin on my face and neck. Especially in the morning. It's weird because I wash my face every morning and moisturize. My skin used to be really clear. My parents say because it's winter. I believe them, but this has been going on a long time now. Please help!

 

Hey girl, winter weather definitely dries out the skin. I would try moisturizing multiple times a day, morning and night. Look into moisturizing facial masks as well. Those do wonders!

i have really chapped lips, even though i put lip balm 2-3 times a day. do you have any other suggestions i could try?
also, every winter, my hands get really dry. and even when i put hand cream and gloves at night, it rarely makes any difference. any tips on how to keep my hands smooth and moisturized? thanks!

 

Hey girlie! Some chapstick brands make awesome overnight products that heal and repair your lips as you sleep, just check your local drugstore. For your hands, if even the most intense moisturizers aren't doing the trick, talk to your mom or trusted adult about scheduling a doctors appointment, they can prescribe you a cream targeted for your needs!

So I get a lot of pimples on my face, and it wouldn't be that bad except that they get really pussy (gross I know). Like they dont spew it or anything but at the surface of the pimple its white with puss and really hard to cover with makeup. I usually just end up picking them -_-. But what can I do to stop them getting all pussy?
And one more thing, when you was your face, does it go cleanser, toner and then moisturizer. Or cleanser moisturizer and then toner?

 

Hey hermoinelover, try to take as much care of your face as you can. Eating more healthy will reduce the number of pimples on your face. Trade in the greasy stuff for fruits and veggies occasionally. I would apply the toner before moisturizer, because the lotion will keep your face from getting dry throughout the day. Hope this helps! Xoxo

I broke out on my back and it is kind of disgusting, is there anything to help me get rid of the zits? thanx!

Hey girl,

I would use a body wash with salicylic acid and follow up with a body moisturizer!

If you’re on a diet and you’re really, really craving something, go ahead and eat it. You’ll be able to reinforce your diet longer if you don’t view it as oppressive.

Muscle weighs more than fat, so that’s why you gain weight instead of losing it when you workout regularly.
