Check out our list of winter essentials that are getting us through these chilly days.

Aveno Lotion

Martha uses Aveno lotion every day to keep that winter weather dry skin at bay. She buys the big Costco box of it.

Biddeford Blanket

April recommends this 62″ x 50″ Microplush Electric Throw Blanket from Target. We all think it’s perfect for snow day snuggling.

Laneige Lip Sleeping Mask

Charlie says her lips take a beating during the winter. But she swears by Laneige Lip Sleeping Mask to keep her lips hydrated.

Thursday Boots

Mandie recommends Thursday boots to keep your toes toasty and dry. She wears them every day and loves how supportive they are.

Coconut Oil Hand Creme

Clarissa doesn’t go a day without applying one of her Perfectly Posh Coconut Oil Hand Cremes to keep her hands perfectly moisturized.

Wild Fable Cropped Hoodie

Paige loves her Wild Fable Cropped Hoodie from Target. She pairs it with high waisted leggings. It keeps her feeling cute and trendy, but it’s comfy and casual enough to wear around the house.

Quilted Heated Mattress Pad

Mandie has owned this quilted heated mattress pad for five years. She cranks it up during the winter for cozy, comfy sleeping.

Aquaphor Healing Ointment

Angelica says she can’t live a winter without Aquaphor Healing Ointment. Dry, cracked skin, be gone!

Toppin Cool Mist Humidifier

Our friends at City Mom Collective recommended this Toppin Cool Mist Humidifier. And any desert home is not complete without a humidifier (or two or three).

Oversized American Eagle Cardigan

I live in AE’s Oversized Dreamspun Cardigan during the winter months. I love cozy, and this comfy sweater does not disappoint.
