Juice Beauty Stem Cellular Exfoliating Peel Spray & Stem Cellular Anti-Wrinkle Solutions Kit
Celebrating its 20th anniversary this year, Juice Beauty has been a trailblazer in the realm of clean, organic, and clinically proven skincare — and, naturally, it has some fantastic products to help keep skin vibrant and bouncy all winter long.
First, dull-looking skin is a a common gripe come winter. To remove the dead and dull skin cells that accumulate on the surface of our skin, causing this unwanted dullness, it’s important to incorporate an effective but gentle exfoliant. I suggest the Juice Beauty Stem Cellular Exfoliating Peel Spray ($52 at ULTA Beauty and on ULTA.com, which instantly reveals brighter and smoother skin after just one use. Unlike most peels, it comes in a handy spray format: you simply spritz onto your complexion, wait a few seconds, and massage onto skin, using circular motions. As you do so, you’ll be lifting away dull and dead skin cells so that, once you rinse your face, your skin will appear rejuvenated and radiant.
And complete your skincare regimen, pick up the Juice Beauty Stem Cellular Anti-Wrinkle Solutions Kit ($52 at ULTA and ULTA.com), which includes 3 best-selling products from the Stem Cellular Anti-Wrinkle collection that are designed to nourish, hydrate, soften, and rejuvenate skin: the Booster Serum, Moisturizer, and Eye Treatment.
CurrentBody LED Light Therapy Face Mask Series 2
There’s nothing like snuggling up and enjoying some self-care on bitterly cold days. For the ultimate anti-aging treatment, reach for the new CurrentBody LED Light Therapy Face Mask Series 2 ($469 at US.currentbody.com), which harnesses the power of LED technology to stimulate collagen production, resulting in smoother, firmer, and brighter skin.
It features 236 LED bulbs that emit light in 3 different wavelengths: red light at 633 nm, near-infrared light at 830 nm, and deep near-infrared light at 1072 nm. The deep near-infrared lights are strategically positioned around the eyes and mouth, where aging signs tend to be more pronounced, therefore minimizing and preventing both fine and deep lines therein.
After a 10-minute session, you’ll notice your skin looks more radiant and, of course, the results are cumulative so that, within 8 weeks, your skin will appear significantly plumper and smoother.
Made from liquid silicone, the mask is soft and malleable, easily adapting to the contours of the face, and it has a strap under the chin for full-face coverage.
And unlike other LED masks, the CurrentBody LED Face Mask Series 2 comes with a certificate of efficacy from Veritace®, an accreditation program that rigorously tests and evaluates every single CurrentBody Series 2 mask throughout the production progress, ensuring maximum LED light coverage and optimal bulb dosage. In fact, every mask comes with its own unique Veritace® certificate that’s outfitted with a microchip, so consumers can track the mask’s production process using their smart phones.

Bye-Bye Weekend Drink Mix
During cold winter weekends, we might indulge in heavy, starch-laden “comfort” foods or have one too many drinks while watching football games or hanging with friends. And, when we consume too much alcohol or sugar, that can irritate the gut and the liver, leading us to feel sluggish, bloated, and off-kilter. Luckily, you can start the workweek feeling energized and laser-focused with Bye-Bye Weekend, the first-ever hydration and recovery drink that specifically addresses digestive and gut relief, so you can say bye-bye to bloating, indigestion, brain fog and fatigue.
This doctor-formulated drink mix goes beyond hydration, combining electrolytes with powerful ingredients at clinically studied doses: among them a vitamin B complex, probiotics, and herbs like dandelion, lion’s mane, and milk thistle that support healthy liver function, reduce inflammation, and promote a healthy digestion. Lion’s mane is also a popular adaptogen that has been shown to help enhance mental clarity! Plus, Bye-Bye Weekend contains zero sugar and less sodium than typical hydration drinks.
Bye-Bye Weekend comes in two delicious flavors: Lemonade and Strawberry. A 10-pack is $19.99 on Amazon and ByeByeWeekend.com
