Winter Skin

  Winter Skincare can be a tricky game and vary depending on the climate where you live.  When I lived in the Prairies, my ongoing issue was dry skin.  I can still have some dry skin tendencies, but there is much more humidity out here on the West Coast.  I often get asked by friends and readers if I’ve tried any new products lately that I’m loving, so I figured I’d share the products I use and love with you…
