Over winter I've kept to a quite strict skincare routine and its paid off!...The winter months can be tough on our skin so its always good to keep on top of it by really taking time and care to insure its in the best condition. I stuck to The Body Shops Vitamin E range as it really hydrates leaving m skin feeling great! I went all out and bought the whole collection as i really wanted to stick to it 100% but if you can't get hold of the whole lot thats not a problem. Ive listed below what i used but my main picks are the cleanser and toner as the first step to great skin is ditching the face wipes and doing it right with both of these! I also love the night cream, whilst you sleep is the best time to restore skin s its at its most receptive and this cream really does the trick!
What i used:
Vitamin E Toner - Has a velvety texture and doesn't dry out your skin £8.50
Vitamin E Cleanser - This stuff Leaves skin feeling smooth and supple £8.50
Vitamin E moisture cream - makes your skin super soft £11
Vitamin E Nourishing Night Cream - Gives intense moisturises skin £12
Vitamin E Body Lotion - Easily absorbed and really light weight £8
Vitamin E Sink in Moisture Mask - A great skin pick me up perfect for a pamper session £2
What makes the Vitamin E range even better is its ethical background, i like to buy into products that i know are produced sustainably and are doing something good along the way! The Fair Trade shea butter is sourced from northern Ghana, where it has been used for centuries to protect skin from harsh Saharan winds. The Body shop work with The Tungteiya Women’s Shea Butter Association to produce the rich shea butter that is used within the products. The Body Shop provides the 528 women of the Association with a fair wage, and also pays a premium for the women to invest in community projects.
My Final tips on getting great skin are:
- ALWAYS take your make up off before bed - each night you sleep with it on your skin ages by 11 days!
- Ditch the face wipes and switch to a good cleanser and toner combo!
- DRINK MORE i don't mean a few more voddys! I mean its key to keep hydrated and the best way to do so is to drink s much water as possible!
- Use a night cream/serum this is the best time to rejuvenate your skin you will wake up fabulous!
My skin is so much better since putting a little more effort into looking after it! Let me know how it goes for you!?
