Holidays and parties go together like New and Year. You have been working on your weight and health to get into that beautiful dress for a special occasion. Great!

But is your skin a sin to behold?

Although Halloween is over, would your winter make-up still frighten small children because it looks like a mask on your dry skin?

As one of the C3TV hosts for Wicked Housewives On Cape Cod, making sure my make-up is not a sin is very important because HD cameras magnify every cosmetic mistake or flaky flaw, tenfold**.**

Your skin is a breathing organ. It the largest organ you possess and one with which you cannot live.

Therefore, you must care for your skin and keep it as healthy and beautiful just as you would your hair, teeth and physique. It is one of the few organs not moisturized from the inside out. Cold weather from outdoors and heated air indoors from homes and workplaces take a toll on skin, especially your face which faces the daily elements.

First impressions are lasting ones. Make them beautiful.

Moisturize twice daily, morning and night, to reduce beauty sins and create glowing results. End your nightly routine and begin your morning one with clean skin that radiates health.

Here are four “skin sins” to avoid with ways to help you make a warm and lasting impression on anyone you meet during the cold winter months.

1.) Dry Skin Sin– apply moisturizer and then primer under make-up foundation. It avoids the “wrinkled map look” that can leave people staring at your face looking for the X that marks the spot. That spot needs extra moisturizer.

If a dog is man’s best friend, primer is woman’s best friend.

Primer can:

a.) hold your makeup in place so it does not “travel” to wrinkles that will begin to look

like the Grand Canyons

b.) trap moisture on your face and keep it from evaporating from beneath your

make-up foundation for that all-day healthy glow.

c.) be tinted and worn alone, without make-up foundation, for the same glowing

results

2.) Dry Lip Sin– apply rich lip moisturizer at night right BEFORE bed, so it has 8 hours to work. This will help you avoid the “prune lips” look with lipstick. Dry cracked lips look worse with lipstick. Keep your lip balm beside your bed. Moisturize again in the morning and dab off any lip balm not absorbed before applying lipstick. This will keep your lips moist without interfering with the staying power of your lipstick.

3.) Chapped Hands Sin- apply a rich moisturizer at night BEFORE bed so it works while you sleep. Your hands and face are the first places people look when they meet you. Reapply in the morning AFTER your shower and makeup. This will keep he moisturizer on your hands longer. Apply a small amount of cream to hands throughout the day after you wash them. Keep your hand moisturizer beside your bed with your lip balm. If your hands are very chapped, wear a pair of light weight household cleaning gloves while you sleep over the moisturizer. I will keep the moisturizer on your hands and off your sheets.

4.) Powder on Dry Skin Sin- Powder makeup on dry skin makes lines look like dried up river beds and draws attention to flaky areas. Powder on dry skin accentuates sin number one and two. Use liquid rouge, or choose a foundation a shade or two darker than your regular one and apply it to the apples of your cheeks or on your cheek ones. It will look natural and healthy. Rather than using bronzing powder, use a bronzing cake-makeup or liquid.

Remember, the name of the game during the cold and drying winter months is Moisturize.

Take care of your skin and it will take care of you.
