6 must-have products for gorge winter skin


 
Trust us: winter weather can wreak havoc on your skin. It can make it feel dry as sandpaper and extra chapped. That's why, much like the summer, your skin needs some extra attention from December to March. Read on for our must-have products this season.

  • 1olaybrush.jpg
    Cool cleansing brush
    We love this vibrating brush that exfoliates and refreshes your skin to leave it baby soft. It also helps tremendously with breakouts.

    Olay Pro-X, $22, walmart.com
  • 2neutrogenawash.jpg
    Fab face wash
    When selecting your face wash it is important to choose one that is oil free and doesn't have tons of added chemicals. This will ensure that the product cleans your skin without clogging your pores. We heart this product that is mild enough not to dry your skin out but will seriously cut down on breakouts.

    Neutrogena Oil-Free Acne Wash, $5, target.com
  • 3neutrogenamoisture.jpg
    Mega moisturizer
    After washing your face, it is imperative that you moisturize, especially in dry, cold weather! Plus, you want to be sure to replenish any natural oils you may have stripped from your skin during the cleansing process. We like the idea of matching your face lotion to your face wash, but it's not mandatory. This series also comes in gradients for varying skin types, which is helpful.

    Neutrogena Oil-Free Moisture, $10, target.com
  • 4tarte.jpg
    Tint so good
    For school days when you're feelin' a li'l pale, a tinted moisturizer is just the ticket. Packed full of SPF (yep, you even need it on snowy days) and just enough coverage that you don't need a full face of foundation, this oil-free moisturizer checks all our boxes.

    Tarte Smooth Operator SPF 20 Tinted Moisturizer, $36, sephora.com
  • 5facecloths.jpg
    Fresh 'n' clean 
    We aren't always by a sink or have all of the tools we need to give our face a proper scrub, so makeup removal wipes are key. These are perfect for travel so you don't have to bring tonsa products, and they alleviate the possibilities of spills in your luggage. Sweet! 

    Soap and Glory Off Your Face, $10, sephora.com
  • 6sheets.jpg
    Basic blotters
    During the day, your skin can attract plenty of dirt and can become greasy-even during the colder months. Blotting sheets are the best treatment for this. You can easily store them in your purse or backpack and wipe away any buildup quickly and discreetly.

    Clean and Clear Oil Absorbing Sheets, $5, target.com

I have sort of pale skin, and freckles, and am a brunette. I have green and hazel eyes. What color would look best on me? I'm trying to get a cute dress for an upcoming event, but I have NO idea what would be cute!!

 

hey girl! I think deep purple would look amazing against your skin and eyes. Or a bright blue!

Okay, so can you hide this? My best friend is on here and I don't want her to see this, but I think my best friend has an eating disorder and I've tried talking to adults about it, but nothing works because she's still considered "fat". What should I do? Also, I'm kinda popular at my school, but I honestly couldn't care less. Anyway, this guy I have a huge crush on, but is 2 years older, apparently likes me, and i want to get his number, but for some reason I'm too nervous. This has never happened before, what should I do? Thank you Smile

 

Hey girlie, take note of things that she's been doing and tell those adults about them. Even if she's heavy, it doesn't mean she's as heavy as she had been or isn't losing weight too quickly. For the boy, just keep talking to him. Get to know him better and if he doesn't make the first move ask if he'd want to hang out sometime. Then you can get his number to make plans.

ok so my ex and I always email like we used to when we were datin. He asks me about relashionship advice, and other stuff. So we were emailing the other day and he sent me a invitation to our towns toy show. I'm probably not going. My church is having a movie night and I'm thinking about asking him... the big question is.. Does he still like me? Ill admit I still like him but does he like me? Thanks!!!!

Hey girlie,

He might like you, or he might have just invited you as a friend...it's hard to tell from email! Maybe you could try to hang out with him as friends in person and see how he acts around you then to get a better sense of whether he still has feelings for you!

I have combination skin. Some spots are pretty oily, and others are dry. And my face keeps breaking out on my forehead and chin. What products should I use to help clear my skin from any acne, and to make it even out? I'm currently using Clean & Clear morning burst, a basic face moisturizer, and a basic toner. But it doesn't seem to help my skin at all. I'm going to go get new face care product today, so please answer ASAP.
Thanks in advance. x

Hey chica, here are some tips for how to find the perfect face wash and moisturizer for your skin.  Stick with a gentle face wash and then to help treat acne, look for products with benzoyl peroxide and salicylic acid.  Continue to use a moisturizer on the dry parts of your face.  Combination skin requires a combination treatment.  Best of luck!

I have liked this guy since like the second grade off and on, he found out in second and fourth grade that I like him. He asked another girl to the dance but he says its only because someone dared him or something. I'm not sure if she likes him or he likes her. We're pretty good friends, me and him, so I don't want to tell him I like him because it might ruin our friendship. I am also pretty sure he hasn't liked me since the second grade. Were too young to date so is there a point. What should I do.

Hey chica, if you don't want to tell him you like him, then there's no need to.  It sounds like you have several reasons not to tell him.  And, if you decide you want to tell him how you feel later, go for it.  Good luck!

Mod mod mod mod mod okay, I have a few things to say.
1) My friend (let's call her Amy) is dating this boy (let's call him Xavier). I'm friends with Xavier as well, and by what he tells me, he REALLY, REALLY likes Amy (he's said 'love'). But the girl, Amy, doesn't really know the effect she has on boys. I am almost positive she is going to break up with him because she can't handle that serious of a relationship. I just don't want either of them getting hurt. What should I do??
2) My best friend and I are going to Disney World. The problem is, I was originally going with another friend, who couldn't make it. First of all, how can I limit my posting on social networking about the trip so no one gets hurt (I'm posting pictures on instagram for sure)?
3) My style is kind of transitioning from preppy to a bit more indie. I used to always shop at Hollister, Delia's, , etc, but now I shop at Brandy Melvile and Urban Outfitters. I'm scared about what others are going to think. Help!

Hey girl, woah, you've sure got a lot goin' on.  Here goes... 1.) There's no need to intervene in your friends' relationship.  Whether they break up or stay together, just be kind and supportive and a good listener to both.  2.) Have a conversation with your friend who couldn't come on the trip & tell her you're sorry she couldn't be there too.  Show that you're sensitive about the situation.  Hopefully this will make her feel better when she sees pics you post online.  3.) If you're confident and comfortable with the clothes you wear, then it doesn't matter what other people think.  Rock the look you wanna' rock.  Go you!

MOD MOD MOD How do I completely change my style from jeans/sweater everyday to dresses/skirts everyday??? PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE answer my questions have been ignored all dayFrown

 

 

Hey chica! I love dresses and wear them every day, but I make them a bit more casual by wearing oxfords or boots and tights with them. That way, it's chic but comfy at the same time Smile

I am about to buy some brown riding boots, what are some ideas to wear with them, I have some ideas but I could use some more, thanks so much(:
Some of my ideas:
~Jean Jacket, Green Infinity Scarf, White Pants,and the boots
~Cream Circle Top, Orange Jeans, Pearls, and the boots
~Oversized Sweater, Black Leggings, boots
~Jean Jacket, Dress, Boots
sorry this is so long but please i need more ideas <3

 

Hey girlie, you can wear your boots with just about any pair of skinny jeans and top. I would advise against wearing them with a black top, but other than that you have tons of options! You can dress them up or dress them down!

tomorrow im babysitting and ive babysat them before but im babysitting them for 6 hrs tomorrow. Can u help me come up with activities and how to handle them? 4 yr girl: she adores me and wont let me leave her. She always wants me with her and shes super sweet. 6 yr boy: hes really wild. Hes so sweet but he is a little crazy and hes in trouble often. 8 or 9 yr boy: hes smart and likes to trick me. Hes pretty mature. He knows the house and the rules but he makes up stuff to get his way and i tend to fall for it. Can u help me come up with ideas? I cant leave the 4 and 6 yr old alone easily and i really want a little time to myself and to hang out and play video games with the 8 or 9 yr old. What activities can i do and get the 2 younger ones occupied without them causing trouble? Thank you so so so much!

 

Hey girlie, if you have time take a trip to the dollar store to buy some cheap coloring books and crayons. Coloring is fun for little kids and it's something you can do for a long time. If you have any movies at home that would be appropriate for them, you could take a couple over and let them help pick what to watch. You could read them a couple stories if they like that kind of thing. You can play a game of catch if it's not too cold outside or with a soft ball inside.

where can I get a footie pajamas with a hood thanks

 

Hey girlie, check out department stores like Sears and maybe even Target. If you're brave enough to order it online, Amazon is a great place to start.

What does it mean when a guy randomly offers his hand? Like, it looks like he's trying to shake your hand, but whenever you do shake his hand, he looks weirded out? I'm sorry this is an awkwardly worded question.

 

Hey girlie, maybe he wants to hold your hand? I'm not sure. It seems like it's not that your question is worded awkwardly, but that the situation is awkward.

Sorry to bother but what's foundation? Im 13, would I need it? I don't really wear makeup, sometimes just mascara and lip gloss.

 

Hey girl, foundation mostly just creates an even tone on the skin.

Play up your frock. Instead of pairing flats or pumps with that summer dress, try adding some edgy boots or sporty sneakers.
