Ready your skin for winter

So you've started thinking about Christmas shopping, you've turned the heating on and you're getting used to the dark evenings - the classic signs that winter is officially beginning.

But have you shifted your skin care regime to suit the changing environment?

Winter is generally a time of lower humidity, which means there is less water carried in the air. Central heating also creates a dry air environment, while wind and cold days also add their challenges to your skin.

Your skin is sensitive to these changes and will naturally become drier and requiring of more moisture in order to stay healthy and soft.

1) Facial Oil

If you are not already using a facial oil, add one to your regime. Oils are a great way of feeding your skin nutrients and our Anti Ageing Facial Oil also helps to support the structure of the skin.

2) Face Mask

Use a deep-cleansing face mask to keep skin feeling clear and fresh. Our Purifying Mineral Mask absorbs impurities from the skin and can help you to handle breakouts caused by the changing seasons.

3) Rich Moisturiser

Switch to a richer moisturiser to combat the low humidity. The Reviving Day & Night Cream is a lovely anti-wrinkle cream that is packed with natural actives to nourish and pamper dry skin.

4) Avoid drying products

Some skin and body care products are drying on the skin because they contain ingredients such as SLS and ethyl alcohol. Make extra effort to avoid these during the winter season.
