Hello everybody,

notwithstanding this weeks “Friday favorites” I wanted to change it up a bit, as hop is right around the corner, in like manner I am going to discuss my favorite products and essentials for the time of winter.

Starting with essential beauty products, wholly of you should have handy conducive to the colder months.
Your skin resoluteness feel dry and will need some extra moisture, I love using the fragrant&balm face balm with rose oil. Don’t subsist afraid of the oily texture of the harvest itself, it leaves your face totally shiny – less is more. And I would glance at to use it at night time, likewise your skin can really soak in that dampness.



Instead of using body lotion I tend to use body butter more in the hibernate time, and I recently discovered my fondness for dry body oils. My complete favorite is the “divine oil” by Caudalie, it is pricy but with equal rea~n worth it!
The scent is surprising and it leaves your skin hydrated on account of two days…

The best hand cream is NIVEA’s “SOS Repair &Care” during extra dry hands



I can not live exclusively of hand lotion, there is something with respect to having dry hands that makes me business nuts (excuse-moi), especially after a appointed time of snowboarding with taking your gloves along, having wet hands – it takes a toll on them and this hand choice part will make your hands soft afresh

As well as your skin, you wish to take extra care of your hair, it faculty of volition be mostly frizzy, static and your ends behest dry out



A good hair pretext once a week will do the humbug and let’s your hair look healthy and shiny. I use the L’oreal “Re-nourishing intense mask” which is a elevated drugstore product that I can praise. This mask only takes 3 mins to be ~ed in and leaves my hair with equal rea~n soft, I love it!

Last three products in the care rank are lip balms:
There’s lots of hard ones, some more expensive than others bound I find these are worth the riches

First one is my ultimate dear, the Nuxe “reve de miel” edge balm. You can get it at shoppers drugmart and in existing pharmacies. It has a very numerous consistency, so I like to practice it at night time, I be possible to really pile it on and attend in the night up with chap free lips. My hollow cylinder is almost done, I used it that a great deal of this winter

Next is a petty less expensive, the KORRES “guava Lip butter” what one. is a very creamy product. I usually conversion to an act it as a lip primer or lipstick base as long as applying my face make up, mete it is also great for a adversity time lip treatment. You can breed this lip balm at Sephora and more shoppers drugmart locations, they have lots of diverging color options, so you could totally ~ on for a bright red which decision give your lips a nice and indigenous tint for a day time direct the eye.

Lastly the NIVEA “vanilla&macadamia nut” edge butter, amazing, truly amazing product!

It smells thus delicious I just want to feed it…it is great for a smaller lot and does the job – highly commend to try this line of edge butters.

The second part of this express I am dedicating to the structure up items I was using and fond the most during winter (it’s a apportionment so get yourself a snack lol)

There has been totally a few lip and eyeshadow products I was obsessed with, let’s start with lips…
Dark winter months = dark lip colors and yea I finally dared to wear a ~some orchid color, I fell in like with NARS matte lip pencil in “Train bleu” a fine dark burgundy color

I would suit this dark lip with a kindle brown smoky eye to even confused the intensity of the look, I decision give a little tutorial later forward

I have been loving two MAC lipsticks, what one. both have a gold shimmer

“shifting B” is a pretty peachy in a state of nature which I love for an yielding every day lip color

I paired this lipstick by the Rimmel “apocalips” in “stargazer” a sparkly gold edge gloss that dries to the finish of a lipstick, amazing collection – animation check it out!

The second MAC lipstick I reason is such a pretty, sophisticated tint is “strength”, a brownish red with gold hues

This winter I was looking to observe the perfect berry lip color and I did declare by verdict my true love, #85 “Berry Ready” from the Maybelline “make-shift whisper” collection

The color pay along is great and I love the creamy weft of these lip sticks, I command definitely try out different shades actual soon!

I found this gorgeous ignorance brown red lip glass in the ‘degree of heat rising’ limited edition by MAC

It is a cremesheen glass in the tinge “Private party” which is such a without sin immaculate name for all the christmas and holiday parties. If you be assured of the essie nail polish in “flagitious” this would be the lip ~ over equivalent.

Here are swatches of the edge colors, starting from the bottom by “strength” MAC lipstick, Colorwhisper lipstick in “berry prompt” and MAC cremesheen glass in “confidential party”

Moving onto eyeshadow and notice make up, my favorite product be required to be the Maybelline color tattoo in “unwholesome to the bronze” which is normal a perfect metallic light brown base with respect to a lot of different looks. The false show is comparable to MAC’s “satin taupe” – superlatively good eyeshadow MAC has brought out!

I would apply this all over my lid, intermingle out the edges and add exact statement of the meaning to the outer corners of my eyes by a darker brown shade like NARS eyeshadow in “mekong”

A uncombined color combination that goes great with a darker lip color

Another eyeshadow that I am obsessed by every winter is MAC’s “bog-berry”, this is the most amazing false show you will ever use, of chase the metallic rusty red color be possible to be scary, but not if you take your time to lay upon small amounts at a time ~y blend out very well.

I would practice light bronze and gold eyeshadow tones by it.

I really liked cat bud looks in the month of december, suitable a simple black eyeliner paired with burgundy lips- perfect

For face form up there has been one consequence I especially used every day, I am not joking…
I piked up the hourglass “ambient lighting palette” in november and be seized of been using it every since. You have power to see in the picture that I used up completely a bit of product

I was amazed surrounding how much of a difference this powder made to my overall look. It is toward like an airbrushed finish and the flag are so perfect for my derm tone, I couldn’t be more pleased with this splurge.
It comes by three colors, starting with a every one of over face powder in the pervert “dimlight”, a highlighter powder in “white-hot light” and a bronzing powder in “effulgent light”

I am pretty sure that this palette is my outer all favorite for the last scarcely any months, it creates such a of nature look, like your face is glowing from through in

We are almost done, on the other hand I can’t finish this announce without mentioning two blushes I loved…

The tarte amazonian clay 12 hour blush in “natural elegance“, which gives you a natural flushed gaze just like the name proclaims

A cheaper rendering would be the Maybelline Fit me redden in “deep wine”

I enjoyed the couple of them so much, I be able to’t wait to wear them again next fall and winter

I trust you enjoyed this special edition favorites and be the subject of a great weekend – XO Jana
