The cold months can make your skin feel cracked and dry. With a plethora of options out there, you can find just the right one for your skin type and budget.
- Protect your skin. Don't assume the cold weather means you can skip the sunscreen. You need to be protected year-round from the sun's harmful rays. Use a mineral-based sunscreen like Brush On Block to protect your skin. You can keep the portable brush in your makeup bag for quick on-the-go applications.
- Reduce redness. The cold temperatures and harsh winter winds can wreak havoc on your face, leaving you with inflamed, red skin. Wear a scarf that covers your face when you will be outdoors for a prolonged time, and look for products with soothing ingredients to reduce inflammation. You may also want to invest in a concealer or foundation with green undertones that correct redness.
- Waterproof your makeup. Wintry wind and precipitation can cause makeup meltdowns. Fight off smears and smudges with waterproof mascara and eyeliner.
- Set your makeup. If you tend to find makeup smudges on your coat or scarf, be sure to set it with a translucent pressed powder before you take on the day.
- Add a pop of color. In the colder months, it's nice to play with darker tones on your face. Think about incorporating a plum lipstick, a smoky eyeliner, and a warm blush to wake up your complexion.
