Winter Skin Care Essentials and Must Have's

Hey Guys...

In London it has been so cold with freezing winds so I have been trying to change up my skincare to ensure my skin remains soft and supple throughout this weather!

If you follow me on my Twitter or Instagram pages you will see a few familiar products.... ;-)

 

1. Biona Virgin Organic Raw Coconut Oil - This is just a Holy Grail product of life, for skin, hair, internal health, EVERYTHING. I will be doing a separate post on this pot of gold so keep an eye out for that. For the purpose of this post I like to add a few scoops of this bad boy to my bath which leaves my skin super hydrated and soft. Also, I use this as a cleanser if my skin is feeling extra sensitive, it removes make up, hydrates skin and eliminates skin conditions.

2. L'Occitane Shea Butter - Now...this product is amazing, it is organic, pure and by a brand you know you can trust! With added vitamin E you know your skin is looked after, after a good bath with the Coconut Oil I smother the Shea Butter all over my skin, let it sink in and then jump into bed! When using this after the Coconut Oil...nothing will make your skin feel more moisturised and nourished.

3. Rosehip Oil - This is also something I will be doing a full blog post on. Rosehip Oil is a wonder product, with its high content of Vitamin A it will assist with cell regeneration and promote elasticity and its Vitamin E content will encourage healthy skin. It will brighten up dull skin caused by the strong winds and dropping temperatures to leave you glowing even in the winter! I use this after cleansing my face before my moisturiser.

4. Super Facialist by Una Brennan Vitamin C+ Brighten, Skin Renew Cleansing Oil - This is a recent find for me whilst strolling the shelves of Boots. It is now my favourite cleansing oil, it makes my skin soft, moisturised and glowing! With its high vitamin C content it promotes cell renewal, reduces the appearance of dark spots, helps to even skin tone and boosts healthy collagen production for firmer skin...a very good find!

5. GlamGlow ThirstyMud Hydration Treatment - This product is amazing, I mean all of the GlamGlow face masks are, but this face mask is one of my fave's for sure when it comes to moisture and hydration. I love the fact you just wipe off the excess with a cotton pad and let the rest soak into the skin for a deep treatment. I only use this at night or on days I wont be wearing makeup so I can let the residue really sink in.

6. Lush Lip Scrub in Bubblegum - Don't neglect your lips people! Seriously this scrub is so good! It's all natural and smells just like bubblegum! I use it a few times a week and then add some Coconut Oil to my lips after for moisture.
