Top Moisturizers for Dry, Sensitive Skin with Eczema

My skin has always been dry and extremely sensitive – prone to reacting to fragrances and essential oils in many beauty products. Throw eczema into the mix and cold New England winters and you get weeks of dry, itchy, flaky patchiness.

I’ve learned to take preventive measures now, which greatly decrease the amount of discomfort I get from my dry skin.

New becomes old, and old becomes new. Cotton cleaning cloths are an old staple in my mother’s toiletry bag, well before the current muslin cleaning cloth craze. No shade on certain skin care brands, but $22 for three cloths? No thank you ma’am. You can make many years worth for less than $15.

Review: Tatcha’s Kyoto Red silk lipstick

Today’s post is a review of the frequently out-of-stock Kyoto Red silk lipstick from Tatcha. It’s one of the few lipsticks that Tatcha makes and has become a cult favorite for its universally-flattering and moisturizing qualities. I’ve been keeping an eye on this one for a while, and finally decided to bite the bullet ($55) when it came back in stock. But does it live up to the hype?
