Cold and dry weather will make your lips crack and chapped lips is not a cute look! ?

To avoid having chapped lips that will not look good in photos, slather on lip balm whenever you get the chance to - before applying makeup, before you go to bed or after you eat. Just remember to bring your lip balm with you everywhere and apply whenever you feel your lips getting dry.

#3 Face mask

Hydrate, hydrate and hydrate your skin when you are in a cold country!

Dry, flaky skin is a big no-no. If you want dewy skin, it is important that you put on moisturising sheet masks at night. Depending on your skin condition, you might even get away with using one sheet mask per day because of how drying a cold climate can be.
