WINTER-PROOF YOUR SKIN

It's only the start of winter and your skin is crying out for some much needed TLC. Hydration is obviously key, but bare in mind all of the below when you come to choosing your winter-proofed skincare... A revolving wardrobe of moisturisers With ever-changing weather, your skincare shelf should be thought of as a skin wardrobe, prepared for every eventuality it meets throughout the year. Think of your moisturiser as your coat and jacket collection - throughout the year it will vary according to how thick and heavy they are. In summer, you might be able to get away with super-light Balance Moisturise™ , but as the colder months draw in, your skin could be crying out for something heavier. Thicker formulas act as an occlusive barrier to protect your complexion from battling cold winds and dry air. This calls for Ultimate Recovery™ Intense , the ideal heavy-duty moisturiser to protect parched skin from the extremities. Bump up your moisture levels by layering Hydr8 B5™ under whichever moisturiser you choose to wear. The all-important sun protection We’re just going to say it; wearing SPF during the darker months is still just as important as wearing it throughout the summer months. UVA rays (the ones which cause the dreaded wrinkles) can penetrate through clouds, which means that while you think you might be completely safe going SPF-free during winter, you’re not. Be safe all year round from the sun’s rays and make sure to apply daily sunscreen like our Physical Sunscreen Anti-Pollution Broad Spectrum SPF 30. Vitamin C bringing back that dewy skin It’s easy to fall into the rut of dull, lacklustre skin over the winter months, but when it’s time to get your sparkle on, you need something to kick your skin into action. Turn to C-Tetra+ Intense, which not only helps to seal in that all-important moisture but also gets your skin looking bright and radiant.

You can even try mixing it with your foundation for dewy, looking skin. It’s packed full of vitamin C to give you that all-important antioxidant protection which is essential all year round.
