7 Tips to keep your skin soft and looking fabulous during the Winter January 18, 2018 15:23

Did you know that your skin is your biggest organ? Yes, skin is an organ and the cold

winter months can take a toll on your skin. Here are some great tips to help you keep

your skin moisturized and you looking great during the Winter.

1) Avoid taking hot baths that are too long as the hot water steals moisture from your skin. But that doesn't mean you have to avoid your tranquil hot bath. Just add a few drops of some avocado oil or almond oil mixed with a drop of an essential oil to add some moisture and a bit of aroma. (Just be careful getting out of tub as they can make it slippery)

2) Apply lotion after taking a bath or shower to lock moisture back in your skin.

3) Even though the temps are cold, you still need to moisturize from the inside by staying hydrated with water or if you're like me...green tea.

4) Add some lemon: When you wake up, add some lemon to warm or room temperature water. Citrus, such as lemons, has been shown to help keep skin clear and moisturized as well as help fighting off the cold and flu as it's packed with vitamin C.

5) Exfoliate: The moisture can't get through dead skin cells so you need to get rid of it. Weekly exfoliating helps keep skin smooth.

6) Extra Over Night Moisturizing: Slather extra lotion on hands, feet and elbows before bed. Those areas have thinner skin and loose moisture faster.

7) Wear Chap Stick! Apply chap stick before bed and under your lipstick before going out to keep lips smooth and avoid cracking.

A Necklace, A Scarf and the Perfect Nude Lip December 15, 2017 19:09

scarf, Morganite, choker necklace, nude lip, fashion tips

The season of scarves! Yes, you see snow on the ground, that's from our second snowfall and today we had our third snowfall in less than a week. It sure feels like Christmas and Winter here in New Jersey. I paired this beautiful scarf that has a blend of shimmering warm shades with the Morganite Necklace. A chunk of natural gorgeous Morganite, the stone of divine love.

Scarves and necklaces pair really well together. Some may think you can't wear both, but you can mix them and create fun Winter styles. The scarf gives a pop of color (as well as functionality of keeping warm) and the necklace adds some sparkle. I also mixed two of my favorite lipsticks Loreal Sandstone #810 and Matte Finish Caron #800 creating the perfect nude lip to complete this warm look.

Have fun creating your scarf and necklace looks and feel free to share them with us on our Facebook and Instagram pages.
