5 Winter Beauty Must-Haves For Glowing Skin

ByMercedes Diane Griffin Forbes January 22, 2017May 23, 2026

Looking for products to keep your skin glowing this winter, I have some gems for you. These products are some of my favorite winter beauty musts.

1. Soap & Glory Beauty Sleep Accelerator

I have this thing about sleep. Although I know I need it, I hate going to sleep. I always feel like there is soooo much more I need to be doing and sleep gets in my way. I know, I know, not a good thing! What that means is that I never get enough sleep and, unfortunately, it’s my skin that pays the price. Soap & Glory Beauty Sleep Accelerator is a miracle cream that helps me fool my onlookers by giving me hydrated, glowing skin, that looks refreshed and youthful! You’d never know I only slept 6 hours last night and 4 the night before.


2. Urban Beauty United Manicure Pack Fame & Nail

The worst thing that you want is to meet a potential client with unmanicured hands! You might not realize it but people actually notice and they immediately think “ungroomed.” Why is this a problem? Because, ungroomed equates to unorganized and unreliable in many people’s minds. The Urban Beauty United Manicure Pack Fame & Nail kit is perfect. It packs small and is a super cute thing to whip out when your on the go.

3. 12 Days of Beauty Faves Advent Calendar

If you have seen my video on traveling light, you know if there is one thing I love, it’s all things in mini! In one box you have your beauty brush, you moisturizer, your nail polish, your lip gloss, your face wash, your finishing mist, and much more more. You really have the whole kit and caboodle with the 12 Days of Beauty Faves Advent Calendar. This handy little kit has all your go to essentials together so you can easily grab it and go, no matter where you are headed, and be your most fabulous.

The last two products on my January’s Best list come from Zoella. Zoella makes some of the best girlie goodies out there. If you are in the mode to just feel pretty. You know the feeling you had when you were 5, wearing your pink tutu and twirling around with your Barbie in your hand? That type of pretty! If you are in that type of mood, then you gotta get these two products.

4. Zoella Beauty Pretty Polished Sugar Scrub 9.8 oz

At 41 year’s old, keeping my skin soft and supple is paramount. I’m constantly looking for products that allow my outside to reflect the youthful person that I am on the inside. Zoella Beauty Pretty Polished Sugar Scrub is great for sloughing off dead skin and prepping for better absorption of your moisturizer. This little jar is great to pop into your suitcase. So even if you are rushing about from one destination to the next, you can take a little time to make sure you take care of your skin. After all, it is the vessel for your brilliance.

5. Zoella Beauty Blissful Mistful Solid Fragrance 0.8 oz

Last but not least, is Zoella Beauty Blissful Mistful Solid Fragrance. This light subtle fragrance is not only great because it keeps you smelling good but the scent is rather relaxing and will help to keep you in a calm focused state of mind. I especially like the fact that it’s solid so you don’t have to worry about spillage in your bag. Plus, it comes in a super cute heart-shaped container that’s sure to turn heads. The attention fiend in me loves when people say, “Where did you get that!” LOL (◕‿-)
