Brisk Weather Beauty

As spring approaches (not quickly enough, however), we’re left dealing with the winter’s slushy aftermath.

That means trying to reverse the inevitable strain on skin and hair that happens when the climate cools and heaters hum. As women of color seeking to maintain satiny complexions and healthy manes, we must take special care, during the year’s brisker months, to adapt our beauty routines to the changing climate. Keeping this in mind, Vixen has uncovered some of the best cold weather-friendly beauty products, to help you through the rest of the season.

For the BodyLather up in the shower with Dr. Bronner’s Pure-Castile Soap ($2.49) to cleanse and refresh your skin, without stripping it of moisture. “Cream up”, as my mother would say, with Jane Carter Solution’s All Natural Nourish & Shine for dry hair and dry skin ($20). This freshly scented organic hair and body butter will intensely hydrate even the most sensitive skin without irritation, leaving a subtle (non-greasy) sheen all over your body. When used once a week, Bliss Super Slough Scrub ($32) will gently buff dull winter skin from scaly to silky in minutes.

For the Hair Before shampooing, slather on PhytoSpecific Revitalizing Treatment ($28), to pump up protein and moisture in the hair. Carol’s Daughter Tui Hair Oil ($8) will amplify softness and shine (while imparting a delicious scent), when used as a daily hairdress. Oscar Blandi’s Protein Mist ($18) coats hair with a protective shield, so that you can revitalize your hairstyle using your favorite hair appliance, with decidedly less damage.
