While I honestly have no experience or right to say I'm a beauty guru, I love to dabble in experimentation in the beauty world anyways. Winter is a hard time to keep your skin and makeup looking soft and glowing, but I've learned a few tricks over the years to do just that! Here are 7 of my favorite tricks and products to glow brighter than the winter snow! ★ ① Matte Bronzer While bronzer is a beauty product that everyone seems to save for the summer, for me it's actually a winter favorite. I believe that too much shine in the winter can wash you out and thus I try to stick away from the typical bold contouring and bright highlighters. That being said, I'm a strong believer that a matte bronzer can give you the summery glow you crave in the winter without getting too washed out by shine. ②Facial Sprays Facial Sprays have become increasingly popular over the past few years and I have honestly been a huge supporter of them ever since. Rose Water has become a huge trend in the beauty industry and it's believed to have a variety of benefits for the skin such as deep hydration without disrupting makeup that is already on your face (just like a setting spray but better!). I personally love Mario Badescu's Facial Spray with Aloe, Herbs, and Rose Water which keeps my skin hydrated and glowing even in the harsh winter conditions. I can even apply it over my makeup throughout the day for a skin pick-me-up without ruining my makeup. ③Thick, Dark Brows In the past 2 years thick brows have been making an extreme comeback. But now more than ever, everyone has been striving to grow thick and natural looking brows. I'm a huge fan of tinted brow gels which helps keep brow hairs in place while also enhancing the color of the brows. Strong, dark brows in the winter are the perfect wow factor pop against glowing and natural winter skin tones. ④Exfoliators I've always been a huge fan of exfoliators since my skin in the winter always gets flakey and dry. A strong and cleansing exfoliator allows for the skin to turn into a fresh start/clean canvas. I'm extremely loyal to St. Ives exfoliators, especially the Apricot Face Scrub which not only helps keep my dry winter skin fresh & glowing, but also helps control my oily and acne prone skin. It truly is a lifesaver when it comes to blemished and dry winter skin.
