Face masks- Treat your face as it starts to dry out in the cold with a relaxing face mask! To get rid of dead skin use a peel off mask. Start by washing your face and patting it dry. Then pull your hair out of your face and apply a store-bought peel-off mask. Relax by listening to music or watching TV while it drys. Once it is dry, peel it off for amazingly smooth skin! Apply some unscented or sensitive-skin lotion to keep moisture in your skin. If your face breaks out easily or is very oily don't apply lotion. You can also buy other types of face masks such as mud masks or you can make your own! One recipe is to combine oats with honey and pat it onto your skin. Facials will leave your skin feeling fresh, soft, and bright!

Protect your hair- Dry, cold air can really damage and dry out your hair, as well as giving it unwanted split ends! Keep it soft and moisturized with an anti-breakage spray or conditioner. I have recently been using Garnier Fructis Fall Fight strand saver and anti-breakage spray. You can spray this product on damp or dry hair and massage it into your hair. It conditions and strengthens hair to make it softer and prevent breakage. If you don't want to buy a product such as this one, try using olive oil! At night rub a small amount of olive oil on the ends of your hair or even throughout your hair (caution if you have thin hair this may make hair look oily.) Olive oil naturally softens, strengthens, will even moisturize your hair!
*I was not paid to advertise Garnier Fructis Fall Fight  it is all my own opinion.

Keep your skin moisturized- it can be hard to keep your skin soft and moisturized with hot showers, blasting heaters, wind, and dry or cold air drying them out, but don't worry! You can follow just a few simple tips to help have soft skin even in the harsh cold. First remember to DRINK WATER! You have probably heard this a million times but it's true, water is one of the best ways to hydrate your skin and avoid cracked lips and heels. It can be hard to drink water, especially for me, so try a tasty mix-in or flavored water. Secondly, avoid hot showers. Steaming water might feel nice in the cold but its sucking moisture from your skin. Turning the heat down a little will help your skin a lot in the long run. Finally, apply a moisturizer. Treat yourself to a new lotion or creme in your favorite scent! If you have cracked heels or lips rub some olive oil (it works for more than just hair) on your skin!
