1.) CeraVe moisturizing facial cleanser - This is my go to for cold weather face wash. It's very moisturizing and soothing.

2.) Clinique Moisture Intense Skin Fortifying Hydrator - I discovered this cream from getting a sample size I got from the Clinique counter at Carson Pirie Scott, & I absolutely love it, however it is a little pricey BUT really works. My skin feels more moisturized, and isn't drying/flaking anymore. My skin was like INSTA-Moisturized the 1st time using this. This is on my beauty wishlist.

3.) Estee Lauder Advanced night repair eye cream - This item is really pricey too. I've been using all my sample sizes I got when I use to work at Carson's, luckily I have 4-5 more samples left to last me a couple of months. This eye cream is very moisturizing. You don't need to use a whole lot, but just a dab. I suggest if you want to purchase this cheaper, to check out a Cosmetic Company Outlet store if there is one near you.

4.) Aquaphor Healing Ointment - This product has a vaseline like texture. I like putting it on dry spots on my face to soothe it. I have 1 in my purse, vanity, & at work. There is a dupe for this available at CVS, AND it's cheaper too-I beleive there are 3-4 in one package vs. the Aquaphor one having only 2 in a package, it's $1 less too and you get more! :)

5.) Burt's Bee's Rejuvanating Lip Balm - I love Burt's Bees lip balms. You can use this all year round but I like this extra moisturizing one for winter time. I just got this for Christmas and LOVE it. The scent for this one smells yummers too. 

6.) Dove Cream Oil Lotion - This is my all time favorite dryg store body lotion. It's so silky & soothe's my skin without the greasiness. You can get this anywhere, Target, Walmart, Walgreens. It's probably the cheapest at Walmart.

7.) Last BUT not least - Water! You still need to drink good old fashion H20 during winter! Your skin needs it so drink up!

My new winter time skin routine-CeraVe cleanser & moisturinzing cream

My skin tends to get more dry and sensitive during winter, so I was in search of a new face wash and face cream. I read a lot of good reviews on this product and wanted to try it out.

Product Review: So far so good. I really like that these are good on sensitive skin. There is no fragrance to the products. They were a little pricer being at Target/available at other drugstores, I bought the cleanser for $12.99, and the cream for I think $15.00, HOWEVER, the amount of product in each bottle is ALOT. It can probably last me for 1 year.

CeraVe Hydrating cleanser - This cleanser is amazing. It's really hydrating, and at the same time it does wash my face, and remove makeup. At first I thought the texture was wierd because it's almost like a lotion. This is a really good product to use during winter. My regular Estee Lauder Perfectly clean face wash was drying out my face, so I knew it was time for a change.

CeraVe moisturizing cream - I really like this. I tend to get dry skin inbetween my nose, neck, and sides of my face, and the drying has stopped. I like using the cream more at night because the cream is so dense and moisturizing, I don't want to be too greasy in the day when I wear makeup. I wore makeup a couple of times on top of this, and my foundation & powder seemed to not want to stay/settle. My forehead looked more oily.

Overall I think this is a pretty good brand/product. I haven't had any skin irritations or breakouts, and I have been using these 2 every night for a month.
