With wintry weather comes harsh winds, cold temperatures and dry air that can do a number on your skin and hair. Luckily, there are small ways to boost your personal routine to help replenish your moisture barrier and luscious strands during those chilly months. Simple steps include drinking more water and using a humidifier, but you can definitely get specific with the beauty products that you use for your winter skin and hair care routines. Come along with us as we share our Desert Essence winter personal care go-to’s to nourish our bodies during those drying cold-weather conditions. 

Desert Essence Restorative Face Oil

Drying heaters and blustery winds can deplete our moisture barriers. Because of that, face oils are some of our favorite winter skincare products for boosting moisture. Replenishing moisture is within reach with Desert Essence Restorative Face Oil. As its name promises, this smoothing oil blend harnesses the powerful combination of organic evening primrose, marula and jojoba oils for a burst of moisture and a radiant glow. Rich in fatty acids, it’s a lovely pick-me-up for dry or mature skin. After cleansing, apply this botanical oil to your face and neck to absorb its revitalizing benefits. 

Desert Essence Revitalizing Oils Facial Moisturizer

Finding the right moisturizer to brave a cold, drying winter is essential. We love giving our skin much-deserved love during winter with Desert Essence Revitalizing Oils Facial Moisturizer for essential fatty acid and protective antioxidant support. This plant-based moisturizer contains good-for-you botanical ingredients such as evening primrose and avocado oil for boosting your moisture barrier and argan oil for soothing parched skin. You can apply this nourishing winter face moisturizer in the morning or nighttime after cleansing — it delivers penetrating moisture without leaving any unwanted greasy residue. A little goes a long way, so massage a small amount across your face and neck for radiant results. 

Desert Essence Anti-Breakage Conditioner

The winter hair struggle is real. Because of harsh weather and heated indoor conditions, winters can dry out hair and make it prone to static, which means potential hair damage. To help your strands stay silky and smooth, reduce hair breakage with Desert Essence Anti-Breakage Conditioner. It boosts your hair courtesy of its powerful botanical blend of keratin, provitamin B5 and saw palmetto. When it comes to powerhouse plant ingredients, it also infuses jojoba oil and coconut oil to smooth hair, as well as aloe and shea butter to detangle strands. Plus, botanical oils and radish seed extract deliver shine. If you’re looking for the best conditioner for dry winter hair, this pick will help your hair survive and thrive when the colder months deal you a rough hand. 

Desert Essence Bulgarian Lavender Hand & Body Lotion

Winter can be stressful on both your skin and your mind, as it’s that time of year when your schedule is likely jam-packed with holiday events and work deadlines. If you’re finding your skin parched and your mind hectic, pamper yourself with Desert Essence Bulgarian Lavender Hand & Body Lotion. One of the best lotions for dry winter skin, this product harnesses the deeply moisturizing goodness of sunflower oil, aloe and organic jojoba oil to give your skin silky smooth rejuvenation during those stressful winter months. Besides revitalizing dry winter skin, it offers soothing benefits for a restless mind constantly making holiday plans. It contains organic Bulgarian lavender, which touts a more herbaceous scent than traditional lavender to provide calming aromatherapy

Lip Rescue Moisturizing - Jojoba Oil Lip Balm

While pampering your skin, don’t forget your lips, either. Cold, dry winter conditions can certainly chap your lips, so it’s helpful to stash a lip balm in your bag or bathroom cabinet. The best lip balm for winter, Desert Essence Jojoba Oil Lip Balm protects and softens lips with soothing plant oils, protective waxes and pure essential oils. Infused with jojoba oil, aloe and vitamin E, it leaves a fresh, cooling wintergreen-peppermint flavor on your lips. 


Winter is one of the most important times of year to give your personal care routine a nourishing boost. The drying effects of cold weather aren’t inevitable — show your body some love with moisturizing, plant-powered formulas full of good-for-you ingredients when you shop Desert Essence’s collection.
