With a recent post about Fall I started thinking about my favorite cold-weather products which I would have a difficult time living without.
Lips: Carmex. Some people love Chapstick...but I love Carmex. All I have to do is put it on at night and I'm usually set for tomorrow. It's simply the best.
Hands: My hands get crazy dry in the winter...I mean cracking and bleeding! I have found no lotion to work better than Curel Intense Therapy lotion. It just stays on there, even when you wash your hands...awesome! I get dry patches of who knows what- eczema probably- on my face and this also helps a lot...it says "gentle enough to use on the face" right on the bottle!
Feet: Okay, this doesn't really go along with the others...but my feet get really cold in the winter, I must have poor circulation. The only sock that does the trick is the Wigwam Merino sock. I mean, this is the only sock. I must admit-its not the most attractive sock out there. But its like other socks have a time limit where they start to give in to the coldness...but this sock keeps fighting to keep my feet warm. One day I actually got called out for wearing the same pair of socks everyday. I had to inform this person, no, I actually own multiple pairs of the same sock...deal wit it!
What are your cold-weather must-haves??

i can't wait to bust out my winter products! i got some Cetaphil sunscreen for the summer but it's too greasy to wear these days...so i'm holding out for those bright dry winter dayz! i'm also psyched about socks--although i prefer smartwool to wigwam!
is it the moisturizer w/ sunscreen or straight up sunscreen? i have the moisturizer w/ sunscreen and my face is a grease bomb by the end of the day.
yeah, i agree with clamz. the moisturizer w/ sunscreen is grease city even in winter. which is disappointing because usually cetaphil makes good products.
Clamz - I love my Wigwam socks too. My feet get so cold in the fall and winter months & Wigwams are all I wear. Merino Comfort Hikers are some of my faves as well & there are some great cute patterns in other styles as well. It's a bonus that Wigwams are all made in the United States (Wisconsin)with U.S. wool. The company is family owned and operated & 4th generation too.
yeah, it's the moisturizer with sunscreen. "grease bomb" is describing my face right now--foolishly, i thought cold weather would be different!
