This week for a Dots quick tip, I decided to share a special recipe that our Dots wellness team cooked up! It seemed like a good follow-up to last weeks quick tip on fall moisturizers. I have personally never tried a make-it-yourself body mask, have you lady’s? Good or Bad? Let’s hear your thoughts!

Beauty Corner- Goddess Yogurt Body Mask

· 1/4 Cup Yogurt

· 3 Tablespoons Honey

· 3 Tablespoons Puréed Pumpkin OR  3 Tablespoons Puréed Carrots

To Make:  Use canned (nothing added), or slightly cooked pumpkin or carrots. Drain, and purée in a blender. Pour into a bowl with the yogurt and honey.

To Use:  Draw a warm bath. Lather your face and body with the yogurt mask. Sink into a warm bath and soak for 10-20 minutes. Rinse in the shower, tone, and apply a light moisturizer.

As fall kicks in, not only do you need to update your wardrobe, but also your facial moisturizer. Right now is the perfect time to start prepping your skin for the harsh cold winter months that are to follow (major bummer, I know). During the winter months, the skin needs extra nourishment so that your face won’t look dry & dull, plus you won’t need to pile on any extra makeup.

Remember; just because you may think you don’t need a facial moisturizer because you have skin that tends to get oily, you still need it! The main reason why skin overproduces on oil, is because it is in need of it moisture and nourishment! Try Olay Complete, a light weight moisturizer with SPF 15 that won’t make you look greasy or shiny.

Look for moisturizers with these key ingredients: honey, green tea, ginseng and vitamins A, C and E.

By hat hair I don’t mean the kind kind you get from wearing a hat all day, I mean how to wear your hair while wearing a hat! As the weather is changing, so is our wardrobe. Not to mention hats make a great classic to have if your hair is behaving unruly. On those cool fall days accessorize your outfit with a cute conductor style hat. You can rock it with jeans or dress pants. Now for your hair we like these three options: wavy hair down, a side braid or just some front pieces out, like Taylor Swift. Each one of these looks is different yet they all look super cute!

Which hat is going to be your favorite style this coming fall?
