Slathering on the SPF is a no brainer in the summer, but with winter unfortunately right around the corner, it’s time to switch up your sunscreen habits to protect your skin in the cooler temperatures. Since sunscreen is the best anti-aging product out there, this really isn’t something you want to skimp out on. Packing on greasy formulas under makeup definitely is not appealing in the winter – instead opt for a tinted moisturizer or a BB Cream with an SPF of at least 30, like Clinique’s age defense BB Cream.  Origins VitaZING Energy Boosting Moisturizer ($35) is also a great option that will hydrate, energize and protect your skin, though with an SPF of 15 it’s best to pair it with a foundation or powder that has a bit of SPF in the formula to make sure you’re getting the maximum amount of protection.  Make sure to stock up on these essentials to keep your skin pretty and protected all winter long!
