Happy hump! It's been time and a half since a beauty post hit these rosy parts, so the time has come to break the silence. Winter does a number on my skin (and everyone else's...because don't even lie, y'all know we're all on this struggle bus together), so I've learned to be more in tune to what my skin wants and needs when the thermometer drops. ...
