5 Cold-Weather Beauty Tips



Cold weather can be a very beautiful thing.  Stay glowing with these specialty beauty tips!

1. Put your summer foundation to good use.  Summer foundation gotten too dark for your lightened complexion?  Don't want to throw it out, but don't know what to do with it either?  Apply it to your neck.  We usually have a pale spot where our chin blocks the sun.  Plus, a darker neck looks longer and slimmer!  Just remember to blend well :)

2. Keep your lips from drying out- efficiently.  Cold weather can mean chapped lips.  As you're brushing your teeth, give your lips a gentle brushing as well.  This exfoliates them to remove build up of dead skin cells.  When you apply your moisturizer, apply it generously to your lips too!  It will soak in within a few minutes.  I do this with my clients all the time.

3. Protect your hair from frizzing in the cold.  Leave your conditioner in for a few minutes longer during your shower before rinsing it out.  You may also need to apply a little more product to protect it from the harsh cold. I like TIGI Bed Head Hair Wax Stick or extra gel/ leave-in-conditioner for curly hair.

4. Keep a rosy glow.  Our skin can look pale and drained in cold weather.  Instead of bronzer,  I love a shimmery, rosy blush in the winter.  For large pores or more mature skin, ditch the shimmer and add an additional light color on the tops of your cheekbones instead.  A simple eyeshadow works great.

5. Wear eyeshadow!  This is is my favorite time to wear creative eyeshadow looks and colors!  In the summer, our makeup doesn't last as long.  So take advantage of the cooler weather and have fun!
