I’m ready to go back into public after having the worst cold ever. What can I do to brighten my appearance?
Chapped lips, raw skin, tired eyes… blech, we know it all too well. Have you ever heard the adage, “starve a cold, feed a flu”? The same rule applies to the beauty fix for a common cold. When you’ve got blocked sinuses and have been breathing through your mouth for what seems like weeks on end, your lips fall prey to loathsome dryness and cracking. Read more »

My lips got extremely chapped during a ski trip two weeks ago and they still haven’t healed. Help!
Don’t blame it on the shussing, ski bunny—winter weather makes it hard to keep your lips healthy! Whether you’re on the mountain or spending winter curled up in the city, the degree of moisture in the air has plummeted with the temperature, taking with it the water that’s otherwise retained in your skin.

For the germ-paranoid, applying lip balm straight from the pot with your fingers is the beauty equivalent of a veggie tray victimized by a roomful of double-dippers. Revlon Super Lustrous Lip Balm ($10, at drugstores) comes with a removable applicator brush, while its fruity scent takes us back to our childhood Bonne Bell collection.

If it’s true that women consume at least four pounds of lipstick in their lifetime, let’s make the most of that nauseating stat. Bite Beauty lip products (from $21, at Sephora) are laced with the antioxidant resveratrol—a Dr. Oz fave found in red wine—and boast food-grade ingredients, like the bits of pomegranate in this multi- purpose balm.

As soon as the holidays are gone and so is our fond affection for the fluffy white stuff. Cracked cuticles, bumpy-red thighs and phyllo pastry cheeks persuade us to fight winter’s ravage with these creamy defense mechanisms.

FACE
Gentle cleansing and soothing treatments are critical for allowing it to keep calm and carry on through to spring.
Before bed is a good time to give your face a deluge of hydrating nourishment. The almond and calendula oils in NIVEA Rich Regenerating Night Care Cream ($8 at mass beauty retailers across Canada) will drown the dry.
For wearing beneath your makeup, Sephora Instant Moisturizer ($24 at Sephora) is oil-free, paraben free, and a trustworthy go-to when you need a protective fortress for your face.
