Give your skin some extra TLC through the winter months
Winter time can cause havoc with our skin. Freezing cold, wet days can leave your skin red and chapped, and central heating can dry your skin right out. A few simple steps can make a big difference and ensure your skin stays glowing all winter long.
,,Keep hydrated
A change of routine over the festive season - more alcohol and sugar, may have left your skin feeling dried out. Ensuring that you keep your body hydrated with lots of water and hot herbal teas will help to keep your skin in tip top condition.
You can also give your skin an extra hydration boost by misting one of our Face and Body Mists throughout the day. Keep one in your bag, and give yourself a spritz when you need it. The botanical waters and Aloe Vera will hydrate your skin, and they smell dreamy!
Turn the temperature down
It might feel cosy sitting in a warm house, but central heating leaves our skin feeling tight and dry. Keep the thermostat turned to between 18°C and 21°C to minimise the drying effect on your skin. Similarly, long hot showers or baths are appealing when it's cold out - but if the water is too hot it can dehydrate your skin.
Exfoliate
Exfoliating helps to clear the body of dead skin, and also boosts the circulation. It gives your whole body an energy lift, which is fantastic in the winter months when our extremities are feeling the cold. Our collection of Himalayan Salt Scrubs are also enriched with organic oils and essential oils like Hemp & Coconut that give your skin extra hydration.
Add in some moisture
It is important through the winter to moisturise your face and your body with a rich and nourishing butter or balm to hydrate and lock in moisture.
Our Nourish Body Butter does exactly that, with organic unrefined Shea Butter, along with Jojoba and Avocado oils to ensure skin is deeply hydrated. Organic Rose Geranium, Lavender & Mandarin essential oils soothe skin and provide a subtle aroma.
Our Hand & Body Balms combine organic Cocoa Butter and Candelilla wax to keep moisture locked in all day and protect skin from the elements. Vitamin rich Hemp, Jojoba & Sunflower oils, along with healing Calendula and essential oils deeply nourish and soothe dry and irritated skin.
