winter pick-me-ups

I get slightly more excited about all things gold and silver glitter during the holiday season which is why sephora's "It looks like rain, dear" nail polish by OPI is my favorite right now. It goes on great and helps keep me in a festive mood.



Another current favorite is a polish with a reddish hue by Sonia Kashuk found at Target. Its a great shade of deep red, but its the name that makes me love it - "STOP WHINING". Perfect.



From the fancy to the practical, here's a quick shout-out to the things that help my skin survive the winter cold. My skin freaks out when the temperature drops below 40, and these are some of the things that have soothed its drying/cracking hysteria.

1) Kiehl's Ultimate Strength Salve for hands
2) Eucerin's Calming Creme for body
3) Burt's Bees Chapstick for lips
4) Neosporin's Lip Health Overnight Renewal Therapy, if you need extra mojo for chapped lips.
5) Gap's basic leggings for extra layering
