Josie Maran's Argan Oil

Lightweight, non-greasy and fragrance-free, argan oil is the new vaseline—a beauty marvel for sensitive skins. According to Josie Maran's website, argan oil has been used by Moroccan women for centuries for its nutritional and cosmetic benefits. We've been using it everyday under our moisturizer for extra hydration, but it's also great on cuticles, hair ends and any other dry spots on your body. Plus, it's all-natural and organic. Consider us hooked.

7 Tips For Flawless Winter Skin

Every winter we lament our wan skin. This year we're taking preventative measures. Here, the seven tips we swear by:

1. Water.  Most women try to consume two liters per day but according to the Mayo Clinic, "no single formula fits everyone." Know your body.

2. Omega-3 Fish Oil. We started taking the softgels and noticed that it gave our skin a  dewy sheen. Read about the benefits of this miracle oil here. Our favorite brand: Nordic Naturals.

3. Pure Oxygen Hydrating Mask. Plump and nourish your skin with this incredible mask from Luzern. It gives skin a glow that will make your friends wonder.

4. Cream Body Wash. Soap is drying so we use an organic cream body wash to retain moisture. Apply with a natural bristle brush to cleanse and exfoliate.

5. Hair Oil. Hair gets dry during the winter so use a thick conditioner and keep locks hydrated with Moracconoil, our secret weapon for perfect hair days.

6. Major Moisturizer. We step up our body moisturizer in the winter by layering an organic balm like Kerry's Miracle Salve beneath a lighter lotion like Fresh Sugar Lychee.

7. Extra Winks. Go to bed one hour earlier than usual and you'll be a fresher beauty.
