These 8 Body Balms will Winter-Proof Your Skin

If you're like us, your love affair with coconut oil shows no signs of waning.The beauty wunderkind is the powerhouse ingredient in this balm along with a few other helpful moisturizers like shea concentrate, beeswax, aloe vera, and cocoa seed butter. 

This skin quencher truly does it all. Along with repairing your cracked lips, hands, and face, this mix of oils, butters, and algae also protects skin against pollution, heavy metals, and free radicals. 

Crafted from all-natural oils and plant-based ingredients, this gentle salve is a pro at calming aggravated skin. 

Warm this thick balm up in your hands and massage it on flaky spots to let it work its magic. This all-natural option owes its hydrating powress to a blend of calendula flowers, rosehip oil, sea buckthorn oil, and vitamin E. 

We love that Kiehl's balm goes easy on the most tempermental of complexions, but still gets the job of hydrating parched skin done. 

Proof that good things come in small packages: A tin of a small batch skin-saver loaded with lavender, calendula, chamomile, and olive oil. Stash these chic compact pots in your pocket or purse to sooth your sad winter skin on the go. 

The name says it all: This jojoba seed-enriched formula makes irritated skin feel divine from head-to-toe.

Think of Aesop's tube as the post-shower equivalent of after-dinner dessert. Skin-smoothing benefits aside, its sandalwood, vanilla, and tangerine cocktail will turn your skincare routine into an aromatic experience.
