I love Winter because of the fashion and all the layers, but it tends to wreak havoc on my skin especially as I’ve aged and since my skin is a combination of dry and sensitive. I’m such a skincare and makeup fanatic (in case you didn’t know) and wanted to share my current favorites to keep my skin glowing and dewy during this season. I’ve been trying/testing some new products and can’t wait to share my must-have winter clean beauty products!
You can read about my normal clean beauty routine in this blog post. During COVID, I simplified and changed to cleansing (with this oil listed below) and then using the Augustinus Bader The Rich Cream moisturizer. Even though I consider my evening routine more like a spa treatment, virtual school and everything else was leaving me EXHAUSTED. So I had to cut it down to two steps! Apparently, Augustinus Bader is coming out with The Rich Cream version 2.0 and I cannot wait to try it!
I didn’t include any moisturizers below because that could be a whole blog post on it’s own! I could probably write a novel on it. Anyhow, the main change to get that glowing Winter skin is to find the balance of exfoliating and moisturizing. Without further ado, here are my favorite Winter clean beauty products.

This is a fabulous oil cleaner that removes all my makeup (including waterproof mascara) in one wash! Sometimes, I will do a double cleanse and use an exfoliating cleanser after this, but this has been my mainstay face cleanser for years. It feels especially calming in the Winter.

NYAKIO SWEET ALMOND CLEANSING OIL BALM
This is a budget friendly balm-to-oil based cleanser that I found at Target. It smells AMAZING, and I use reusable organic cotton rounds to remove it. It leaves my skin feeling so soft after cleansing. This also feels like a spa treatment but requires a little more time to tissue off the cleanser.

I consider it cheating, but I’m sharing this wonderful treatment serum with you! LOL! I add one pump to my moisturizer and VOILA! INSTANT TAN!

JUICE BEAUTY STEM CELLULAR RETINOL OVERNIGHT SERUM
This has been a game changer for the texture and clarity of my skin! The retinol is encapsulated and doesn’t dry out my skin even though I use it the recommended 2x week. I have been using Juice Beauty products lovingly for years. Use code JBSAM15 for 15% off your purchase at Juice Beauty!

The Tata Harper line is so wonderful that it’s worth mentioning twice in this post! This is my favorite exfoliating cleanser of all time and often used as the 2nd step of a double (after the oil cleanser). This is one of the MAJOR ways to get that Winter glow, but you have to be careful to not OVER-exfoliate. I usually only use it 1-2x/week.
In a masterclass, I learned that you use in on towel-dried skin and apply in circular motions until you see it appear white.

This sugar scrub is so good that you could eat it (and my children try to all the time)! This is a fabulous lip prep so you have gorgeous lips even in Winter. Even if we are wearing masks out, I don’t like peeling lips!
SEED PHYTONUTRIENTS HAND SALVE
My hands take such a beating during Winter and even more so now with COVID because of the amount of hand washing. My knuckles are usually red and cracked. This hand salve has been my savior leaving a nice coating over my skin. I use it every night and as needed during the day.

I love adding these products to my Winter skin routine and hope these can help you with any problem areas on your face and body. Let me know if you are interested in a more in depth blog post about moisturizers!

Happy Friday GlamFam! This week, I’ve been completely exhausted. I’m not sure if it’s because I worked the weekend at the hospital, got my 2nd COVID shot, or just left over from last week but I’ve been so sluggish. It may also be my from 4 year old coming to visit every night at 3am, or Franklin pacing all crazy hours in the night. Anyhow, I’m hoping to get back into a “normal not tired” routine next week.
Mr. S has to go into work this weekend to make up for last week. I’m excited to do nothing!! WHAT ARE YOU UP TO THIS WEEKEND?
Thank you so much for stopping by and supporting SOS!
