Best Bet: Chic Relief

As the first blast of fall sets in, your dewy summer glow is starting to morph into a dry, irritated, cracked mess. A new line debuting on Tuesday vows to keep skin in its moisturized glory so winters aren't always so dreadful. First Aid Beauty's Ultra Repair Cream is an intense all-purpose cream loaded with ingredients like eucalyptus oil (to heal and soothe), colloidal oatmeal (to protect), and shea butter (to moisturize) to calm everything from eczema to post-cosmetic treatments. Instead of being a thick, greasy balm with an odd medicinal smell like other multipurpose potions, First Aid Beauty is fragrance-free with a lightweight frothy texture that still manages to deeply hydrate. Rub it everywhere from your face to feet, and even on your new tattoo (took the itch away from ours), for ultimate relief and moisture.
$28.50 at Sephora.com starting Tuesday.
