Winter Beauty SOS!
Ottilie & Lulu offers top winter skin tips for tweens.
The last of the leaves have fallen, cold is in the air and with the shift in seasons come new wardrobes, activities and beauty regimes. And while most women are able to adjust seamlessly (after years of practice) what about teens who are slightly newer to the game? Deborah Hernan, beauty guru and creator of tween sensation Ottilie & Lulu, a line of skin, body and hair care products, offers the following tips for the new season:
Begin every winter day with a gentle face cleanser. Don’t use soap or harsh cleansers that strip skin and make it feel dry and itchy. Also, apply a light facial moisturizer with a sun protection factor to slightly damp skin everyday. The light lotion or cream helps to seal in moisture and the SPF protects your skin from harmful UVA/UVB rays.
Always use a lip softening balm with a SPF. Because winter robs lips of moisture, many girls wind up biting their lips. Keep your puckers super soft and healthy by applying a balm at least three times a day. And be sure to get the corners of your mouth because that area chaps easily, too.
Unruly, fly-away hairs need extra care in cold, winter months. Be sure to use an enriching conditioner and massage your head and hair a few extra minutes. It gives you the time to work the conditioner from the top of your head to your ends, and you will feel more relaxed. You may also want to tuck your precious strands into one of this season’s great berets, too! Check out www.goody.com.
Take extra special care of your hands. First, plug in your favorite music. Second, rub your hands with Vaseline and then tuck them into a pair of gloves. Third, sit back, relax for about a half hour and think about all the great things you accomplished in the last week while the petroleum jelly works its magic.
Remember, your winter beauty regime starts with a healthy you! Every beauty regime includes a good night’s sleep and healthy, balanced meals. Oh, yes, and a friendly smile!
Created to fill the void of responsible skin, hair and body care products for the tween set, delivering a sophisticated, yet simple product range with age-appropriate formulations and positioning is a new brand— Ottilie & Lulu. Experts agree that like eating well and exercising, a proper grooming routine should be taught at a young age to establish healthy habits for a lifetime. Yet while most tweens know to steer clear of hydrogenated fats and the difference between yoga and Pilates, when it comes to skin, hair and body care, they fall short. As their nickname suggests, this age groups finds themselves in an in-between stage: too old for some things, too young for others. Ottilie & Lulu products are specially formulated for consumers ages of 7 and 14. It’s ideal for the tween who wants a collection to call her own.
Ottilie & Lulu’s easy-to-use products, ranging in an affordable price bracket, include a Shiny Silky Detangler & Conditioner, Feel Good Shampoo & Body Wash, Clean Skin Facial Wipes, Everyday Moisturizer with a non-chemical Sunscreen, SPF 20 and a Body Glow Lotion. All are created with gentle formulations, of antioxidants for protection from environmental stresses, vitamins to nourish and enriching botanicals to soothe. They are non-irritating and do not contain parabens, phthalates, SLS, mineral oil or petrolatum. Ottilie & Lulu products are dermatologist, allergy and clinically tested (never on animals) and are made in the USA.
