Answer: They are all skin ailments than can occur during the Canadian winter months- sometimes all at once, yahoo.
These are some of my all-time favourite products: ones I turn to again and again that soothe my skin over the colder months (though some are used year-round because they're that great!).
I have been using Blistex Lip Medex for over a decade; it soothes, tingles a bit and works so well. I first started using Carmex (book nerd alert!!) as soon as I finished Sloppy Firsts because Jessica Darling, the protagonist used it and I loved her. I use Burt's Bees Lip Shimmers at work; the menthol is refreshing without being cloying, and they provide a solid wash of shimmery colour. I'm showing (and currently using) the shade "Watermelon" shown above which is a pretty dusty-rose colour.
The Body Shop's Peppermint Intensive Foot Rescue is one I keep returning to. I don't why I try different foot cream out as I always come back to purchase this one! I think the minty freshness makes it extra appealing, and it feels so refreshing and soothing. The Aloe Eye Defence for sensitive eyes, also from The Body Shop, is a relatively new product for me, but I have grown to use it more than any other eye cream I own. The texture is light while being moisturizing, it smooths out well and doesn't make my eyes itch or water. I use the Vitamin E Intensive Moisture Cream on my face and I find it lovely. It feels luxurious, smells like a dream, and really sinks into the skin. I'm not sure if it's suitable for all skin types, but I have combination skin and I've had no problems, no breakouts. It just makes my skin feel so soft and niiiice!
The Body Shop's Hemp Hand Protector is wonderful- my absolute favourite hand cream, and my year-round night cream for hands. I use Curel Extreme Care during the day at the library as it's lighter, slightly quicker to absorb and fragrance free. Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Cream I use for cuticles and dry patches on my face. I also recently used it to soothe and treat my poor nose during a really horrible cold- it did not sting or burn whatsoever.
