4 Best beauty products for dry skin
Does your skin takes a 180 degrees when it gets to the winter times like mine? - changing from being healthy and hydrated into a flaky, irritated, and dull complexion. Before winter gets into full gear, I have prepared some product recommendations to everyone that I gathered from frantically searching around the web to save my skin! These products have not only soothed my irritated skin, but also worked to nourish, plump, and hydrate my skin. I have also included a make up product that will also prevent your make up from looking dry due to indoor heating.
Banila Co. - Miss Flower & Mr. Honey Essence Oil (30ml)

In the winter I find that just a moisturizing cream is not enough. I always need to include an oil in my fall and winter skincare routine to really deliver moisturizing benefits to my skin. This essence oil is feels extremely nourishing and luxurious and great for dry skin! Even though the oil is thick, it spreads smoothly, absorbs easily and has a slight sweet smell of honey. Once patted in, my skin is left feeling both hydrated and moisturized, and my dry irritated skin is instantly soothed. I never had a oil that absorbed so well without leaving a heavy sticky residue - thats the difference between this essence oil and regular facial oils!

Since dry skin needs some extra TLC, I like to do a sheet mask every other day or at least 3 times a week to keep my skin's hydration levels up! This one from LuLuLun is extremely moisturizing and affordable. It also more environmentally friendly as there are 7 sheet masks in each packaging instead of one. These masks are soaked in plenty of milky hydrating essence that will can also replace your moisturizing toner too! Although it is a milky essence type, it gets absorbed into the skin really well and does not leave a sticky and heavy feeling like how other masks might. Instantly after taking off the mask, my skin feels hydrated and looks noticeably brighter! This is one of the best face mask I have tried!
It Cosmetics - Your Skin But Better CC+ Cream with SPF 50+

When my skin is dry, I like to avoid foundations because it tends to get flaky and dull looking as the day goes on. Instead, I like to go for a lighter cc cream instead like this one from It Cosmetics. It is good for that natural make up look! This cream also has SPF 50+ which provides more sun protection and when it snows, the sunlight will reflect on it and be damaging to your skin! This is why it is ideal to wear sunscreen all throughout the year! This cream is a staple for me as it feels light and hydrating yet provides enough coverage for an everyday look.

Liah b. - Aglow Face Mist
I have never used a hydrating facial mist as good as this one! I like to use facial mist when my skin is looking dry and dull - especially after working in an extremely dry office. The spray on this is extremely fine and has a slight calming smell of lavender. A couple spritz of this and my skin looks hydrated and glowy, my skin feels soft and refreshed, and the dry texture on my skin is smoothed! Although it comes with a heavy price tag, I think this is one of the products that is really worth it.
