WINTER… In Texas, you never know what it is going to be like. Sometimes it can snow, & other times – like today it can be 69 degrees in January. I am a bit late getting to this post this time around… & to be honest – I have no good excuse. haha. š Somehow most of these things ended up being about skincare. It is really important to always keep your skin hydrated & nice, but especially when it is cold outside.
I hope you enjoy my winter favs – Please do not hesitate to leave a comment for any requests you would like me to cover on a post or in a video! I would love to hear from you!!

Hempz Vanilla Plum Lotion.
We all get a little ashy during the winter… I have a hard time with certain textures & smells. I am very specific on what lotions I use. By chance at a Tjmaxx one day – I came across this lotion. I bought it originally for the smell but quickly fell in love. Now, it is my FAVORITE lotion… & one of the things.
Hempz Vanilla Plum Herbal Moisturizer is enriched with 100% pure organic hemp seed oil, & blended with natural extracts to provide dramatic skin hydration & nourishment for 12 hours.

Carmex Winter Mint Lip Balm
If you are like me, not only do I struggle with dry skin in the winter – but also DRY LIPS! It is the worst & it can really hurt. Like I said in the previous item above – I am weird about texture & scents… When I found this chapstick, it was like my lips were in heaven. It is not sticky & it ACTUALLY HYDRATES your lips! The only unfortunate thing is that this scent is a limited edition… I am not sure why, because it is SO FREAKING GOOD!
I do have a link that you can find it at below if you are interested. This flavor reminds me of Trident mint gum… yummmmyy š
Hyaluronic Moisture Boost Serum
OKAY… this post is unintentionally becoming all about skin, so I am just going to roll with it! š One of the greatest things I found this winter was Trader Joe’s Hyaluronic Moisture Boost Serum. It helps you to enhance your skinās natural moisture, then you can add to it as needed. Did you know – one gram of hyaluronic acid can attract & hold onto several liters of water. This Hyaluronic Serum was formulated by top dermatologists to contain 1% sodium hyaluronateāmaking it a lightweight, water-based, unscented serum to moisturize skin.
Instructions: Apply to freshly cleansed skin and follow with a liberal application of your favorite moisturizer.
The amazing thing is that it is also only $8.99 ā itās a high-end Serum at a really reasonable price.

Blueberry & AƧaĆ Facial Scrub
& the facial care recommendations continue… I think that skin care is vital. I love scrubs & exfoliants, & when I ran out of my favorite one this winter – I wanted to discover more products that I would love for cheaper… I found this amazing scrub at Trader Joes. It reminds me of yogurt, & it smells so amazing. In a typical drugstore situation – it can be hard to find a legit scrub that can do the job. I found that most scrubs were heavy on the gel & way less of the scrub. The Blueberry & AƧaĆ Facial Scrub comes in a heavy, frosted-glass jar & youāll immediately smell its sweet blueberry scent.
Instructions: Use 2-3 times per week for best results.
The Blueberry & AƧaĆ Facial Scrub only costs $5.99 ā a product your face will thank you for.
Thanks for some different ideas ,
Ha, Ha…I see you must like Trader Joes! I have been wanting to try the moisture serum…Next trip! Thanks for the tip.
