The Zodiac Signs in Relationships: Expressing and Receiving Love

Winter Beauty & Body Care by the Signs| Isthmus Nekoi

I've personally tried out each of these products and found them most suitable for use during a long Canadian winter.

Aries

Rams can buff and exfoliate away dull winter skin with Elizabeth Arden's Clear the Way facial mask. Gentler than drugstore exfoliaters, this mask will never dry out or stress your skin, leaving it fresh and soft.

Taurus

When the weather outside gets too nasty for bulls, there's nothing better than a long massage indoors to soothe dry skin. Take the odourless Body Shop Massage Oil and mix in a few drops of essential oil for a sensuous Taurian experience. (hint: use lavendar to relax, or citris oils for a pick me up)

Gemini

For a product that does double duty for the twins, St. Ives' Medicated Apricot Scrub with salicyclic acid is is great for smoothing out skin, especially in areas like the back that can sometimes be prone to acne. Not recommended for those with sensitive skin. Also is too harsh for facial use, although that is what the product is marketed for.

Cancer

There may not be such a thing as "comfort body products", but Ivory's Moisturizing Body Wash comes close. With a gentle honey scent, the gel/cream wash is a sweet smelling way to get clean without stripping your skin.

Leo

Lions can tame static prone or dried out locks with a small amount of Redken's Butter Treatment. Your hair will never be softer and you can even leave it in for very unruly tresses.

Virgo

Virgins aren't the types to be impressed by fads. Labello's Hydro Care lip chap maybe plain as porridge, but it is cheap, rich and superior at keeping your lips smooth and soft.

Libra

Librians appreciate a soft touch, and Kiehl's Creme de Corps provides a non-greasy body lotion that is lusciously rich and leaves your skin beautifully moisturized.

Scorpio

Scorpions ought to avoid razor burn and invest in a triple blade Venus Razor from Gilette. And don't forget to use a thick shaving cream like the Skintimate line with Vitamin E.

Sagittarius

Fun loving Sags can take a beauty soak after a hard night's partying with a Butterball Bath Bomb from LUSH. Drop one in your bath and watch it fizzle! Made with slivers of cocoa butter, this bomb leaves your skin soft and smelling lovely.

Capricorn

Every practical goat knows that just because the skies are gray, it doesn't mean UV rays aren't getting through. A high quality facial moisturizer with SPF protection is ideal for Caps, especially since their ruling planet Saturn, is associated with skin. Older skins can try Lancome's Primordiale Optimum Fluide, a light lotion with SPF 15.

Aquarius

LUSH's popular Buffy the Backside Slayer exfoliating massage bar is the perfect quirky product for dried out skin. It scuffs and smooths off all the rough bits, while moisturizing so effectively, lotion need not be applied afterwards! And contrary to their product description, each bar can last for far more than 3 applications. Extra points to LUSH for no animal testing and avoiding preservatives whenever possible.

Pisces

Fish suffering from the flu or cold can treat themselves with a little TLC and triple ply tissues from Kleenex's Lotion Tissues. Non-scented and very gentle on tender noses.
