Winter tends to be drier so your products should have a more moisturizing effect. Moreover, during summer which is approaching rapidly, use products containing lots of SPF to protect skin.

The disheveled brow is like the beauty nod to the messy, bed-head look proving that you don’t always have to be absolutely perfect to be considered beautiful.
