avoiding the winter "dull"

Over the holidays, I had some down time and was able to do some fun before and after looks. It was a much needed breath of fresh air (seeing how Utah's air quality is worse that Beijing's) to do a few fresh faced looks in this gloomy winter weather. Since the air here is so dry, I really tried to focus on brightening up the complexion and keeping the skin hydrated. I have a few tricks for restoring moisture and radiance to the skin, but my very favorite one is a simple product EVERYONE should use: Josie Maran Organic Argan Oil. Yes, I said it. OIL! It is a hydrating and restorative oil that you can use on your face, nails, hair, anywhere that you need a splash of hydration. And it isn't just for dry skin. This 100% organic oil actually helps to balance oily and combination skin types so the skin doesn't produce excess natural oils. Not only that, but it has a naturally occurring astrigent property that can help prevent blemishes and acne. Needless to say, I am obsessed!


Only one ingredient? Yes, Please!

I use a few drops on clients' skin before every makeup application to give the skin a natural radiance.

Here are a few of the fresh face looks I did using the Josie Maran Argan Oil. Enjoy!
