The dry season has arrived!

It's almost November here in Shanghai, where I have been staying for approx. 9 months to learn Mandarin Language. It's the fall season already with winter coming in just a pinch of time. This only means one thing: it's the dry skin season! We all know the feeling: dry, raw, itchy dry skin that seems to return every fall and winter.

So, despite of the rip-off prices here at Sephora and Sasa, I finally repurchased my ultimate weapons to fight this season: Clinique Dramatically Different Moisturizing Gel (460 RMB at Sephora) and Jergens Shea Butter Lotion (79.8 RMB at Sasa). Thanks to them, no more dry skin for me!!



*tips for using your moisturizer: use it right after you shower (you have to shower with warm water, not hot water. by then your skin will still be damp and moist, and the moisturizer helps lock in the moisture from your shower.
