Happy Sunday! Who’s ready for a Lipstick League round up? I am SO honored that I was chosen by G of Nouveau Cheap & Stef from we heart this to join this amazing group. Each week, myself and some of the biggest & BEST beauty blogs on the web, will post a question of the week and weekly links for you to check out! (Mine will be posted on Sunday afternoons) You can read more about The Lipstick League HERE.
Question of the Week: Now that the weather is getting cooler in the Northern hemisphere, what product do you rely on to keep your skin soft and moisturized?
Jess’ Answer : The Ultra Repair Cream from First Aid Beauty has been a lifesaver! Not only is it great for moisturizing your face, but you can also use it all over the body. I love that it’s not greasy and hydrates my skin so well. Definitely worth checking out!

A good, moisturizing sugar scrub, I’m in love with Tree Hut, right now. And lots and lots and lots of lotion to further moisturize and nourish my very dry skin. The Bath and Body Works Shea and Vitamin E lotion are very good and smell yummy, too. When I am super dry, it’s Curel Ultra Healing Lotion all over. For lips, I rely on my prescription ointment. 😀
I haven’t changed my routine yet. Soon!
In cooler weather I rely on body oil or in-shower body moisturiser. I’m very lazy with body moisturising and these products make the task easier.
Gosh. I go through a ton of stuff so my routine changes very often
I have a what seems like a million-step routine right now, but my cold weather must-haves are facial oils. I like the one from Tatcha.
My weather hasn’t changed much here in Florida, but I do find myself using more lip balms as the seasons change! I’m digging on the EOS balms right now, especially the new ones for the holidays!
It’s no lie that I am addicted to coconut oil… especially with my severe eczema… but I have been really loving a thick moisturizer and argan oil lately… and a good mask that will sloth away all the yuck from dry skin.
As the weather gets colder I make sure to use more moisturizer or else my face will crack
With these colder days I make sure to use a good moisturising product, to keep my skin in good condition.
I use a ton of products in cooler weather, Karma cream from LUSH and H2O lotions are my favorite right now.
I love FAB products! When I lived in NJ, the Ultra Repair Cream was the only product that kept my skin from getting dry and itchy!
I haven’t changed my routine yet… Fall still hasn’t come to California
