And by the looks of the half-empties in my bathroom, it’s high time I fill you in on the things that have been getting me through winter and combatting the beauty blahs—dry skin, dull hair, general boredom from being stuck indoors. Clarins Instant Light Lip Protector in Plum Shimmer ($26) is the perfect sheer berry, but I also j’adore the formula for shine and moisture, and feel French every time I take out the sleek tube. Rodial Instaglam Magic Pen Corrector ($26) super easy to use (while NOT driving) because it doesn’t require a brush, layers over other concealers, won’t spill in your bag, and doesn’t budge. Votary Toning Serum ($118) is one of the products that seems totally unnecessary (what exactly IS a toning serum anyway? ) and yet is the thing I look forward to apply most—in the morning, right after I’ve cleansed, before face oils or creams.

Simply blend the ingredients together, toss it into a pretty glass, and sip on the couch with your latest Netflix-binge-of-choice (we can’t stop talking about The Crown). It’s chock-full of superfoods that help you heal from the inside out, including dates, cucumbers, ginger and coconut water. Cucumber is a fast and powerful way to rehydrate the body, and coconut water packs an electrolyte punch. Lastly, adding a teaspoon or two of seeds (pumpkin, flax, hemp or sunflower) will add fiber to help extract extra toxins and support digestion.
