Hi Julia. I hope you read this, it's the first time i check your blog and it has very interesting content!.

I use Cetaphil soap since i was 12 years old (i'm 21 now). I use it because i suffer allergies so it's a very good soap! free of perfumes and it leaves your skin very soft.

I would like to know if you have use other products of these brand, because i only use the soap but here it's a little bit hard to find other stuff.

Regards from México, i love your Videos!.

I know some people may not want to spend the money but LUSH makes some very yummy smelling and pretty long-lasting massage bars that are super moisturizing and packed full of essential oils and all around goodness.
It comes as a solid bar so you just hold it between your hands when you're freshly towel dried and as it warms and melts you just rub it all over your body and massage it into your skin.

Try Strawberry Feels, Soft Coeur or Mange Too.

How can I prevent breakouts after exfoliating? I exfoliate at night during my shower and breakout by morning. What am I doing wrong?

Wonderful is the word for such a well covered blog which more or less clearly specifies how to go through the chill.Dehydrating makes most skin dull and cracked in winter,exfoliating is easy and a good exercise for the hands too,moisturizing is anyway something done by all...sun screen is important and so is a very lip balm.....happy winter days.

For me, I know that when my lips get chapped in the winter, I haven't drunk enough water. A day of consistent water input solves this problem. but it I have to keep it up every day.

2009-11-19T22:29:12.027+01:00

I know this may sound old fashioned, but plain old Vaseline can be just the thing to keep you moisturized this winter. After your evening shower while your skin is still damp, take a small dab of Vaseline and work it into your hands to get it warmed up. Spread it onto your damp skin. You need a only a tiny amount; more will just make you all greasy-feeling. The Vaseline prevents moisture from the shower evaporating from your skin and making it dry. It seals it in and helps to keep you hydrated.

Great advices!

I'm still kinda' lost though. My skin is dry in the cheeks but very oily in the T-zone, and I just purchased (yesterday) Clinique's Clarifying Lotion 3, which I thought would work best for me, but now I'm not so sure and even afraid of haven wasted some more money. :( Well, the only way to know is trying it out, so I will see... :)

This is going to be only my third winter and my skin was just terrible in the two past years.

This is so helpful thank you! My skin has suddenly gone crazy due to the weather -- totally dehydrated!

Hey, I'm Anonymous from above answering to Tea's concern. I found this on Wikipedia:

"The use of sunscreen also interferes with vitamin D production, leading to deficiency in Australia after a government campaign to increase sunscreen use.[41] Doctors recommend spending small amounts of time in the sun without sun protection to ensure adequate production of vitamin D.[42] When the UV index is greater than 3 (which occurs daily within the tropics and daily during the spring and summer seasons in temperate regions) adequate amounts of vitamin D3 can be made in the skin after only ten to fifteen minutes of sun exposure at least two times per week to the face, arms, hands, or back without sunscreen. With longer exposure to UVB rays, an equilibrium is achieved in the skin, and the vitamin simply degrades as fast as it is generated.[43]"

2009-11-14T17:41:41.329+01:00

Tea and MissChievous:

Vitamin D is synthesized from a precursor in the skin wich is activated by UV rays. I'm not sure if Vitamin D synthesis requires the same wavelengths that sunscreen blocks; I think so but I'm not 100% sure. But I don't know if sunscreen blocks radiation so much...Anyway, just a few minutes of sun in the cheeks a day is enough to produce Vitamin D, also depending on the color of your skin. So I guess using a very strong UV filter over a long period of time in a not-very-sunny place could, at least theoretically, produce a Vitamin D deficiency...However, I think it is unlikely.

2009-11-14T02:42:37.729+01:00

hi Julia...nice tips...!I would just like to add...that if someone has broblems with dry skin...one can soak a cotton pad in olive oil and just dab the dry areas softly...it is especially useful for the nose and chin as well as forehead...and if u do the same round the eyelid and bottom of the eye...u will find out u will never get rinkles around the eyes as long as u use olivi oil once a day...!it also does wonders for dry hair...I come from Greece and we really know are stuff concerning home made cosmetics!so if anyone has any further questions u can ask!!! p.s. u rock Julia...I love the looks u do!!!!!! xxoo

Tea: Actually sunscreen doesn't prevent the production of vitamin E, it just helps to block UV rays, it doesn't mean Vitamin E won't be produced.

Good useful advise. However I have to note that althoug sunburnt must be avoided, excessive sunprotection will lead to vitamin D deficiency and this is too damaging for health.

2009-11-13T03:37:33.115+01:00

I get dry lips something terrible in the winter months! I've used all sorts of chap sticks but one day some one told me to mix vasaline and honey together. I love it! It heals the cracks in my lips and works as a great clear lip gloss and even a lovely lip primer as long as you apply it thin enough.
Great skin care tips, Julia! Keep up the good work! :-)

2009-11-12T16:40:21.236+01:00

Awesome tips! I love them! One skincare tip I have is to try a body oil after a shower every few days. Like almond oil, which absorbs easily. Also try a salt scrub in the shower that contains shea butter. For the face, I'm currently LOVING Burt's Bees Day cream with royal jelly from the Radiance Line.

2009-11-12T15:40:12.192+01:00

Oops, and don't forget the most important thing - lipbalm!!! I use The Body Shop's shea butter lipbalm. They come in packs of two and I find them really helpful at preventing dryness if you use it everyday.

2009-11-12T15:35:08.486+01:00

I have a DIY face/body scrub recipe that works wonderfully, as a scrub and as a moisturizer. Put a few tablespoon of sugar in a jar, add a bit of olive oil and a bit of honey in order to create a fluffy mixture. I don't have exact quantities but I just do it like that, adding a bit of each until I have a nice fluffy consistency. Very simple and very efficient! The sugar exfoliates and the olive oil and honey moisturize without leaving a greasy feeling. I use it every 3 or 4 days and also use it as a lip scrub (yummy!) It leaves your skin soft and dewy.

In the fall and winter my legs and arms get very dry so I buy a richer body wash. This year I got Olay Body wash plus cream ribbons with almond oil. I also take baths more oftenly using stuff from Lush or just rich bubble bath products from the drugstore (I love almond oil). As a moisturizer, I use Vaseline cocoa butter deep conditioning body lotion, especially after shaving.

2009-11-12T10:22:30.236+01:00

i use (face) oils as a moisturiser in winter every other night. one could use the argan oil or i use the face oil from THE BODY SHOP. it is really good and hydrates my skin over night. AND it is really NOT greasy at all. there are no stains on the pillow. promise!!!
I can only recommend that...

2009-11-12T09:11:57.107+01:00

Thanks Julia! I never had problem with 'dry winter skin' until coming to Switzerland, so you have great tips. One question though, can we actually get Cetaphil here? If so, where? I've never been able to find it at any chemists or pharmacies here - is there somewhere else for me to look? Thanks so much!
