December Beauty Loves

1. Winter Candy Apple lotion from Bath and Body Works

During the holidays, I find my hands are extremely dry.  Especially from all the baking and cooking and then washing my hands constantly.  I keep this lotion everywhere.  I have some in my nightstand, some in my closet, and even some at work.  The scent isn't always Winter Candy Apple, but every holiday season, I stock up on it.  I love the smell.  And it really helps with dry skin as well.

2. bareMinerals Purely Nourishing Cream for dry skin

I use this cream as part of my daily routine, but in the winter it is a must.  Dry skin gets much worse this time of year, and this cream simply fixes that.  I hate after washing my face, the tight feeling that my face goes through.  It gets dry quick.  This cream is almost instant relief.

3. OPI Big Apple Red nail polish

With the holidays means holiday parties.  This nail polish is the perfect color to really make you look Christmas-y.  I will say, I can't find the exact polish from the picture online anymore, so the OPI color I referenced will work but really any OPI red will do.  But this is what I personally own.

4. Tattooed eyeliner by Skone Cosmetics

My ipsy bag last month had this eyeliner.  I did not give it a try until early December.  This was mainly because I wanted to try it out while around the house since it is semi-liquid and I have never used a liquid eyeliner.  It works great.  It goes on very easily and stays put all day.  I normally do not wear eyeliner, but this one is perfect for all of those holiday events as well.

5. e.l.f. Brow Comb & Brush

Your makeup cannot be complete without a brow comb.  You can find these at stores like Target for only $1. It lasts a long time and is a really great value!
