Arm yourself with these six products to fight off the effects of the season's chilly forecast.

Strands will need an extra boost of moisture in frigid weather. One to two drops of Aveda's Dry Remedy Daily Moisturizing Oil on the ends of your hair will keep hair soft and shiny without weighing it down. $27

Aquaphor is the cult favorite superhero of ointments. It helps heal everything from diaper rash to burns, but people with dry skin swear by this as a face moisturizer during the fall and winter. $12.95, 14 oz. jar

If anybody knows about braving the elements during cold autumn weather, it's soccer moms. My friend Cory swears by Burt's Bees Ultra Moisturizing Lip Treatment while she's cheering on her son from the sidelines to prevent dry, cracked lips. $5

I fell in love with this hand cream when I was pregnant (the lemon scent reminded me of lemon merengue pie) and I've been hooked ever since because J.R. Watkins Hand Cream is the only hand cream that keeps my hands moisturized, even after multiple hand washings. Added bonus: It is made of 98% natural ingredients. $9.99

I literally inhale this stuff every time I get a chance. Not only do I love the spicy, exotic aroma of Bath and Body Work's Wild Madagascar Vanilla 24-Hour Moisture Ultra Shea Body Cream, but it's also my favorite body moisturizer during the fall and winter months. It's thick and luxurious in texture, but never greasy. $12.50

Dry, cracked feet are a common complaint in colder seasons. My husband has been using Heel Tastic consistently every morning and it made even his dry and scaly feet feel soft and moisturized. $9.99
