A piece of peppermint bark here. A caramel brulée latte there. If you expect to ring in the New Year in your new favorite frock (without using a pair of pliers to pull up the zipper), step away from the s’mores. Check out these locally-carried appetite suppressants that actually do a body good.

A quick spritz of the Peppymint from Aveda will keep you from turning your candy cane tree decorations into an afternoon snack. Available at Paris Parker Salons, $8.50.

Winterize your scents and sensibility with a dab of Love Coco perfume (pictured). Fresh as the new fallen snow, each spray is a mix of subtle coconut, bourbon vanilla and fresh white cedar, and comes in an uber cute to-go coffee cup. Available at Anthropologie, $98.

Rival the chestnuts roasting on an open fire with a body-contouring chestnut organic airbrush tan from Throwing Copper. Nothing tastes as good as tan looks. Available by appointment at Abeille Nola.

A moment on the lips with the Cinnamon Kiss Plumper, will save you from a gorge that could last a lifetime on the hips. Available at Earthsavers, $28.95.

Add a little cacao to your crown with the Chocolät Smoothing Collection from Carol’s Daughter. This sweet mix combats styling damage and rebuilds hair’s structure. Available at Macy’s, $54.
