Every season brings something new and for autumn, we find lots of changes in makeup. Here's what has just arrived or is just around the corner.

As your hair tends to be dryer during the winter months, try cutting down on how often you wash your hair. You don't want to remove even more oil from your hair.

It is a good idea to use a moisturizer containing oil if you plan to spend time outdoors. Water based moisturizers can literally freeze on your skin. Because of the extreme temperatures you might find yourself facing during the winter months, it is advisable to use a heavier moisturizer when you are outside. A sunblock of at least SPF 15 is also as important at this time of year as during the summer months.

Lips tend to dry out the fastest at this time of year. Be sure to keep them covered with a good lip balm applied several times during the day. Warm sesame oil will also soothe your lips . Avoid licking your lips and don't bite the skin on the surface of your lips. The skin will never have a chance to heal if you chew on it. This is a hard habit to break but well worth the effort.

If your latest cold has done a number on your nose, get out that tube of concealer and apply a little to the tip of your finger. Dot it carefully until the glow has lessened and then set it with a bit of translucent powder. No one will ever know.

Every night it is suggested that you massage petroleum jelly into them to soften them up. If you don't have petroleum jelly, cocoa butter or a vitamin E capsule was also suggested.

I know that taking a long hot bath during the winter, is not a good habit to get into especially if they are long in duration. I am guilty of this as I find taking a bath with a good book is heavenly. So, be warned, you could be robbing your skin of natural oils so try to limit the time spent in the tub and don't use hot water. Lower the temperature to something just nice and comfortable. Water that is too hot isn't good for you anyway. If I can convince you to switch to a shower, that is even better. And don't forget a good body lotion and slather it on.

Instead of using harsh soaps on your hands, reach for baby wipes instead. They won't strip the moisture from your hands and at the same time leave them soft and smooth. The hands have very few oil glands and can easily develop cracks.

A pair of sunglasses seems so simple -- it's two pieces of tinted glass or plastic in some sort of plastic or metal frame. How much simpler can something get? It turns out that there are many different things that you can do with two pieces of glass, and these things can have big effect on you when you use the lenses. As you will see in this article, there really are differences. There are four things that a good pair of sunglasses should do for you:

Sunglasses provide protection from ultraviolet rays in sunlight - UV light damages the cornea and the retina. Good sunglasses can eliminate UV rays completely.

Sunglasses provide protection from intense light - When the eye receives too much light, it naturally closes the iris. Once it has closed the iris as far as it can, the next step is squinting. If there is still too much light, as there can be when sunlight is reflecting off of snow, the result is damage to the retina. Good sunglasses can block light entering the eyes by as much as 97% to avoid damage.

Sunglasses provide protection from glare - Certain surfaces like water can reflect a great deal of light, and the bright spots can be distracting or they can hide objects. Good sunglasses can completely eliminate glare like this using polarization.

Sunglasses eliminate specific frequencies of light - Certain frequencies of light can blur vision, and others can enhance contrast. Choosing the right color for your sunglasses lets them work better in specific situations.

When you buy a pair of cheap sunglasses, you often give up all of these benefits and can even make things worse. For example, if your sunglasses offer no UV protection, you increase your exposure to UV rays. The sunglasses block some of the light, opening your iris to allow more light in. However, this also lets more UV light in as well and increases the damage UV light can cause to the retina.

So there really is a difference. Buying the right pair of good sunglasses for the conditions in which you use them gives you maximum protection and performance.

The biggest problem with cheap sunglasses lies in the way the lenses are made. Inexpensive sunglasses have lenses made of ordinary plastic with a thin tinted coating on them. The key to finding the perfect pair of sunglasses lies in picking the right features for your situation. Here are some of the most important features to compare when you buy a pair of sunglasses:

• Lens material · Lens quality
• Lens darkness
• Special coatings or features
• Frame and lens design
• Frame material
• Brand recognition
