Left to Right: Clarisonic Brush | Boscia Purifying Cleanser | Sue Devitt Oxygen Masque | Coconut Oil | Kiehl’s Midnight Recovery Concentrate | Tan Towels
If you live somewhere with winters like Chicago you know it’s impossible to make it through the season in one piece without altering your skincare routine to protect you from the harsh temperatures. These are our go to products that get us to spring. What are yours?









I run a humidifier at night. I cleanse with DHC Deep Cleansing Oil and Olive Soap at night and follow up with moisturizer and serum as needed. It’s overkill to wash the face morning and night: I wash at nighttime only to remove makeup.
Couldn’t agree more about washing your face only once a day… as for the humidifier… we’ll have to try it!
My Clarisonic=DUH. I love Boscia! That is my must have cleanser. Right now I’m using Neutrogena Sensitive Moisturizer, and I am digging that, but Perricone’s Nourishing Moisturizer is my absolute fave for dry skin.
We’ll have to check those out. We trust anyone who loves their Clarisonic…
I love coconut oil! I use it everyday. I also want to try Avocado oil – I heard that is really good too.
We’re addicted to coconut oil! We’ll have to pick up some avocado oil… let us know what you think! xx
Will do – I’m heading to the grocery store tomorrow
The Clarisonic I got for my birthday last year is the singlemost effective anti-aging tool I have ever used. Afterward, I use Shiseido Benefiance Wrinkle Resist Eye Cream (it really works in minutes), and Alpha Hydrox (10% glycolic acid and it’s cheap at Walgreens).
Couldn’t agree more about the Clarisonic! We’ll have to check out the other products. Who doesn’t love a good Walgreens find?! Thanks for reading! xx
