Winter Wonderskin!

As winter in the UK has its tendencies to drag, I thought I would mention a few useful winter beauty tips which I have tried and tested myself.

This probably sounds like the most peculiar out of all the tips but works like a treat! A key part of our body that suffers in winter are our hands and arms, cover your forearm and hands, from fingertips to elbow in moisturiser. Apply heavily so you look like your wearing body paint, then (here it goes) wrap the whole area in cling film and leave for 20 mins. After this time remove the cling film and rub in any excess and ‘voila’…soft, moisturised skin.

2. When your in the shower after you’ve finished your shower routines, lock in some extra moister by moisturising whilst your skin is still wet, then rinse off, for silky smooth skin.

3. A lot of skin products and hairstyling products are high in alcohol. When alcohol evaporates it feels cool, but it’s stripping away moisture, so try to avoid products containing alcohol.
