HARMATTAN 101: 9 ESSENTIALS FOR HARMATTAN SEASON

Hi guys! First off, I would love to really apologize for not posting in a long time (final year things..)  and also let me be the first to wish you a very merry xmas hols in advance anywhere you are!

The harmattan season is here (especially West African countries) and as you know it, this season brings in a lotta dry dusty wind, a bit of cold and a slightly a bit sunny (depending on the day) and more importantly, this season tells us that xmas is lurking! *yayy* happy dance*

Here are 9 essentials to keep your skin from dryness and keep it warm and glowing and don't forget that your hygiene level would be scaling up to 101% (ya heard it!). They are;

1. Body oils - Don't dry your body entirely after shower. Leave it a bit damp and apply any nice body oil of your choice (look out for ingredients tho). This method helps oil to penetrate the skin and keep it fresh even after it's dried off.
2.  A Bottle of water(s) - Harmattan is a dry weather and it makes your throat dry as well and you keep yearning for a drink but to be 100% healthy, make sure you have at least a bottle of water with you. Water refreshes your skin and makes it glow
3.  Hand Creams: You know you need this in case your palms get dry and quite crackly.
4. Hand Sanitizers: If you go around touching dusty cars, chairs or even your clothes, you are simply attracting germs that come with the dust and you could apply hand sanitizers when you are not close to a tap.
5.   Tissues / Handkerchiefs/ wipes: For sneezing, cleaning or dusting.
6. Chewing gum: N.B. if you aren't supposed to chew gum for medical reason, please ignore. To keep fresh breath and chew gums with mints.
7. Minty sweets: Same as chewing gums and eat moderately.
8. Lip gloss / Lip balm: To avoid cracking of the lips and keep a soft, smooth healthy lips (all males allowed). 
9. A red Lipstick: From your Classic- Ruby Woo to your Revlon, any red lippie of your choice would do this season and don't forget to add a bit of shimmer on it. 

Hope you try these and give me your feedback! Happy Holidays!
