As Spring time rolls in I am finding my skin dry and damaged by the cold, and I mean cold, Winter. Having the same problem? Help is at hand! Lets mix up our routines with some rejuvenating, moisturising products.
First things first, shower gel and face wash, to keep our bodies squeaky clean!
For the body:
This is personally my favourite, I love everything about it, from the way it smells to the way the oil turns into a foamy lather on your body. It is rich and leaves my skin feeling soft.
For the face:
A little something extra:

For the body:
Kiehl's 'Creme de crops Nurturing Body Washing Cream' £18
Containing some beautiful nourishing ingredients such as Jojoba oil (this has been used traditionally by native americans and and Mexicans for skin care), Glycerin and Shea butter, lovely.
L'Occitane 'Almond Shower Oil' £18
This is personally my favourite, I love everything about it, from the way it smells to the way the oil turns into a foamy lather on your body. It is rich and leaves my skin feeling soft.
Lancome 'Galatee Confort Comforting Milky Cream Cleanser' £19.48
This will take the day off your face whilst enriching it with all that good stuff (like honey and almond extract).
Clinique 'Take The Day Off Cleansing Milk' £19
Clinique never really fails for me, I've been using them for years and feel that there products basically do what they say on the bottle, and it's no different for this product. Removes your make-up whilst leaving your skin feeling soft and comfortable.
If these products are good, but just not good enough to go solo then here are some moisturisers that should do the trick.
For the body:
Neal's Yard 'Beauty Sleep Body Butter' £23
Now this stuff WORKS and it is FULL of some really good stuff, but be WARNED. It will make you want to enter the deepest sleep of your life as it absorbs into your skin, so if you want a moisturiser to apply during the day rather than in the evening then this is NOT the one for you.
The Body Shop 'Body Butter Duo' Sweep pea £16
This is a great product, inside this nifty pot are two different creams, one is for where your skin needs a little less hydration and the other is for where your skin needs a lot of hydration, for example your elbows, or if you're like me then all those little random patches of skin that for some reason are as dry as the Sahara.
For the face:
Clinique 'Superdefense Daily Defense Moisturizer SPF 20' £39
This face cream is full of antioxidants (which is why the product is often advertised surrounded by berries). It absorbs into the skin nice and quickly and goes on smoothly. It is a delight to wear underneath my make-up. I think of it as a layer of protection against all the harshness my skin will be exposed to throughout the day.
The Body Shop 'Vitamin C Daily Moisturiser SPF 30' £13
This stuff smells SO good, like zesty, fresh oranges. As far as the product itself, a little goes a long away. It leaves your skin feeling soft and smooth, it has a high, protective SPF and helps keep your skin looking radiant! I would also recommend the 'Vitamin C Skin Reviver' (£15) as a beautiful partnership to this moisturiser.
A little something extra:
This spray will give your face a little extra hydration during the day, if you need it.
If theses can't sort you out then I don't know what can!
