"Cold Girl" Makeup Has Made Its Official Return—5 Fresh Takes on the Viral Trend

Kick-start your day with this refreshing cleanser. Glycolic acid and vitamin C give you bright, radiant skin.

We all get chapped lips this time of year, and this lip balm is the remedy. It’s packed with a medley of plant-based emollients including shea butter, coconut oil, and vitamin E.

Before you apply any makeup, put on sunscreen to ensure your skin is protected from the winter elements. I recommend this one because it has a silky texture and zero white cast.

Blush sticks are super versatile—you can apply them on your cheeks, lids, and lips. I recommend applying this in a "W” shape across your cheeks and nose for a windburned, cold-girl look.

This affordable moisturizer is a hidden gem.

The best drugstore bronzer, point-blank. If it’s not a part of your makeup collection yet, now’s the time to get it.

These best-selling glosses come in an array of decadent shades. I would recommend Butterscotch, Brownie Drip, Salty Cocoa, and Spiked Toffee for "hot chocolate” makeup. It’s no surprise that they all smell divine.

Consider this iconic liner a nonnegotiable whenever you apply lipstick—you’ll see the difference it makes.

I’m constantly reaching for this cult-classic lipstick. The shades Mink, Bare It All, and Nude Fury are my top picks for this look.

Add a pretty pop of color with this bronze terra-cotta blush. Also, how gorgeous is the rose embossing?

This dewy, ultra-light blush is my new favorite. The water-based pigments blend seamlessly into the skin for a sheer, natural flush. 

A trio of aloe, vitamin E, and avocado oil makes this moisturizer a savior for my dry skin. Plus, I love the applicator—you just press down and the product comes out in a cute flower shape.

Yes, sunscreen is still necessary even if it’s snowing outside.

TBH, you don’t need to wear mascara if you curl your eyelashes.

You can still get snatched brows without filling them in.

Finish off this effortless look with a tinted lip oil. I adore the shade Chou Chou, a cool baby pink.
