Snow White's Winter Beauty Secrets Volume 2

I love winter because I love winter clothes, but I hate winter because my skin hates it. Today, I want to share  how I protect my skin from the cold. I will be sharing two secrets, both using my favorite skin care items.

1) First, is mixing your liquid foundation or BB cream. I personally mix my BB cream with Kiehl's Ultra Facial Cream. I use the Ultra Facial Cream as my last step of skin care regime, but I mix a little amount of Ultra Facial Cream with my BB Cream as my makeup base. I would say the ratio should be 6:4. Six should be your BB cream (or liquid foundation) and 4 should be the Ultra Facial Cream or a moisturizer of your choice. (I recommend Kiehl's Ultra Facial Cream or Biotherm's Aquasource).  I personally mix two items on top of my hand with a small spatula and then apply it to my face. (The picture makes it seem like you mix it as you apply it on your face :(



2) My second secret is mist! I have tried various mists but most are dehydrating more than hydrating. Therefore, I like to use Thayer's Rose Petal Witch Hazel Toner as my winter mist. Since I don't really use this toner in the winter, I love it as my mist. I use as my last step of skin care, whenever I feel like I need it, and after I finish my make up! You can purchase a small travel size mist bottle like the picture above for less than a dollar. I bought mine for 97 cents at Walmart. I carry it in my purse!
