My Top Winter Essentials

We are getting some cold nights so here is my updated and expanded Top Winter Essentials blog - those products that I reach for when the temps drop and the skin gets dry, lips get cracked, and hair is a mess!!

You can shop all these amazing products at my site www.youravon.com/jsmith9525 

Skin So Soft

This iconic line is one of my absolute favorites all year round but especially during Winter!  

First up is our Skin So Soft Moisturizing Shave Oil $6.50
Say bye bye to razor burn!  This product is unfortunately on the discontinued list (I have definitely fought for this to stay in our product lineup) so you need to grab this now!  This oil is amazing before you put on your shaving cream.  


Skin So Soft Original
Iconic.  The Skin So Soft Original - I remember using this oil growing up - it was a staple for mosquito filled nights at the lake.  And it is an amazing moisturizer!! 
 Spritz this on after a shower and you are set.  $6.99 

Bath Oil Spray


Skin So Soft Original Gelled Body Oil $7.99


Skin So Soft Bath Oil $15.69 16.9 fl oz
A few capfuls of this oil in your bath and your skin will feel amazing!!



Skin So Soft Soft & Sensual
Body Wash 
Another iconic scent - this one reminds me of vintage glam feminine scents!
A spicy floral that you will love - my husband always comments when I use this body wash and body lotion.




Lip Care / Lipstick / Lip Balm / Lip Gloss

Winter leaves your lips craving moisture!!  And these products below with natural oils will moisturize and brighten your smile!

Moisture Therapy Lip Balm - Fragrance-free, no residue, and works amazing!  $1.39
This is the best for everyday!



Dr. Belmeur Daily Repair Cica Moisturizing Lip Balm $12.00
This lip balm with main ingredient cica - will be the choice for those who want to prevent severe chapped lips during the winter.  If you have trouble with chapped lips each year - this will definitely rescue and heal!



Birthday Balm Lip Crayon $9.99
Beautiful natural shades with moisturizing non-gmo shea butter.  Paraben and mineral oil free.  My favorite for everyday when you want color but ease of application on the go!




Moisture Therapy 

This lotion is a favorite of my husband and mine.  Fragrance-free, doesn't feel sticky or heavy.  
33.8 fl oz for $12.69


Extra Strength Cream is the BEST for really dry spots such as knee, elbows, and ankles.  $4.79


Moisture Therapy Balance and Soothe Line
This line is top notch!!  Our advanced microbiome formulas with prebiotics and para-probiotics help to balance and soothe your skin.  The body wash is my favorite!!  It has little capsules in the body wash that hydrates and moisturizes your skin to protect against winter weather!
$20 Body Lotion  $18  Body Wash



Hair Care with Argan Oil

This is an absolute necessity for me throughout the year and especially during the winter!  It leaves my hair looking healthy and vibrant.  I use this every single day! $10.49


Elastine Botanicals Hair Care Line
This line is hands down one of the best values in the Avon brochure right now!  
$3.79 each Shampoo and Conditioner available
(conditioners are sulfate free!)
Three lines to choose from depending on your haircare concern:  
Volume?  Rosemary & Sea Salt
Frizzy Hair?  Avocado & Quinoa (my personal favorite!)
Dry Hair?  Cherry Blossom & Hyaluronic Acid



Skincare / Makeup 

Our Hydra Fusion line is a mega hydrator and the perfect addition to your winter skincare regimen.   And this product right here - amazing!!  I use this serum at night on the days when my skin starts to really feel dry.  Skin instantly looks plumped with our highest concentration of hyaluronic acid, which can hold up to 1,000 times its weight in water for immediate and lasting hydration.
$24.99


Dr. Belmeur Cica Recovery Cream $34
WOW!  This product right here literally has transformed my skin over the past year or so.  I am a firm believe in cica!  Cica is known to relieve irritated skin, strengthen the skin barrier, and gently moisturize.  I can't recommend this product enough!!



Isa Knox LXNEW Clean 2-in-1 Exfoliating Cleansing Balm $24.99
Melts away makeup and impurities.  Enriched with panthenol (vitamin B5) and bamboo stem powder.  This feels so gentle and effective on my skin.  I had never used a cleansing balm like this before and really love it!  A little goes a long way so it lasts a long time!



I have a number of favorite cleansers for my winter skin needs - the cleansing balm above from our Isa Knox line for sure!  Two others that I find myself reaching for more and more are these two:

The Face Shop Rice Water Bright $11
This gentle formula lathers up with a creamy foam including rice water and soapwort extract that leaves skin looking clear and bright.


Isa Knox Anew LX Ultimate Rejuvenating Gel to Oil Cleanser $15.99

I wasn't so sure about this cleanser when I first started using it.  Is it a gel?  Is it an oil?  But my oh my this leaves my skin feeling so nice and glowy!  I have become a believer in this one and find myself reaching for it more and more.


Physiogel Intensive Cream for Face
$31.99
I use this every single day in the winter!  I use it to really boost my skin with hydration but also as a primer underneath my winter foundation and the application of my foundation just glides on!  I just reordered this the other day because I cannot be without it!


Cashmere Complexion Longwear Foudation $24.50
This line has 30 shades to choose from!!  You will absolutely find your perfect match.  This is extremely longwear - looks amazing all day and is the most natural looking matte application.  Highly recommend this one.


I will be continuing to update this page because there are so many more of my favorites that I need to add to this but wanted to get this out to you so you can be prepared for these dropping temperatures!!
Thanks for checking out my blog!  And please feel free to pass my blog along to any friends or family who are looking for products to help with all their skincare, bodycare, and makeup needs!
