Worth every penny, Mustela Bebe Hydra-Stick magically moisturizes even the driest skin. Sensible for even sensitive skin and those with eczema, the pleasant scented formula is perfect for moisturizing lips, cheeks and other dry patches. The second I apply the product to my lips,  it instantly forms a protective barrier and I feel my lips become more supple. 

Seemingly lasting forever, Mustele Bebe Hydra-Stick doesn’t run out quickly like your Chapstick, Carmex or other drugstore stick. At $10 a pop, this is the best buy in my make-up bag.

I’m obsessed with vintage and antique style jewelry and understandably have taken a liking to the Gold Vermeil Vintage Locket by Three Sisters Jewelry Design. Blending current trends with a classic feel, this vermeil gold and glass locket sports a little charm, is 1″ in diameter, hangs low on a 24″ chain and houses a precious memory. Send a personal photo to the company when you order and the Three Sisters convert it to a black and white locket size for you to hold close to your heart.

Quench thirsty skin.

Get Fresh Spa Dry Oil Body Spray, $22.50

Get Fresh Spa Dry Oil Body Spray, Available at GetFresh.net, $22.50

This blistery cold weather has my skin dry and cracked with an insatiable thirst for moisture. I apply, reapply, and apply again, only to find my skin is still itchy and dry. My current cure for this dilemma is to apply a body oil over my moisturizer in order to seal the skin. I found that fast absorbing Get Fresh Spa Dry Oil Body Spray works miracles. Packed with essential vitamins and antioxidants, the silica, blue marine algae, and shea butter ingredients smooth the skin and help lock in moisture. While a little on the pricey side, I think it’s $22.50 well spent.
