The stress of going back to school doesn't have to damage your skin here are five ways to keep your skin dewy and bright all winter long.

1. Hydration

Drinking water helps keep your skin hydrated and glowing. If you don't like the taste of plain water spice it up with some fresh fruit.

2. Exfoliation

Especially if you go to school somewhere cold exfoliating about twice a week can help keep your skin looking fresh and healthy. Exfoliating removes dead skin cells and prevents your skin from becoming flaky or dull.

3. Tinted Lotion or Self Tanning Mouse

Spending too much time in the library or binge-watching Netflix with your roommates can cause you to lose that summer tan you worked so hard for. Using tinted lotions or self-tanning mouses can help bring back some color into your skin. My favorite is the Saint Tropez tanning moose.

4. Hair & Face Masks

Keeping your hair healthy and soft is just as important as keeping your face hydrated and glowing. Hair and face masks are a great way to repair the damage that the cold brings as well as the stress of school. Some good ingredients to look for in face masks are coconut oil, honey, tea tree oil, charcoal and many others. My favorite hair mask is just a mixture of natural yogurt and honey, it helps replenish your damaged hair and keep it hydrated.

5. Vitamins

The vitamins that we need to keep our hair and skin looking healthy can be found in the food we eat as well as daily vitamin supplements. The reality of being a college student and living off dining hall food is that we don't eat all the nutrient-rich foods our body needs, so sometimes we need supplements to give us that extra boost. Good vitamins too look our for are vitamin C, E, A, omega-3 fatty acids, iron, biotin, and zinc. So make sure to eat foods that contain these vitamins or take daily supplements, your hair and skin will thank you.

It's the most wonderful time of the year! Christmas is one of my personal favorite holidays because of the Christmas traditions my family upholds generation after generation. After talking to a few of my friends at college, I realized that a lot of them don't really have "Christmas traditions" in their family, and I want to help change that. Here's a list of Christmas traditions that my family does, and anyone can incorporate into their family as well!
