- • Cleansing
If you use wipes (my pet hate a big fat no no) and foaming cleansers, you might find your skin slightly more unforgiving in a colder climate. So for those of you who prefer to hand cleanse as opposed to a cleansing device switch to a soap free hand cleanser from my Nutricentials range Hydra Clean Hand Cleanser (great to double cleanse with) milks, creams and balms of course the AgeLoc cleanser suited for your exact skintype …Normal/Combination, Dry, Sensitive, Blemish Prone, Oily….(take the skintype test on my website) used with the award winning cleansing device AgeLoc LumiSpa and you’ll feel a difference in your skin immediately.
- • Toners
Keep up with the acids. Now is not the time to slow down. Acids are crucial for keeping your skin exfoliated and fresh, ready to accept anything that follows them. Treat yourself to a new one, keep the skin challenged in a safe, non-aggressive way. If you can afford it, absolutely use more than one. I would recommend you trying the Here You Glow Exfoliating Toner in my Nutricentials range suitable for all skin types, it leaves you with a healthy glow, alternate it with the Ph Balanced toner, that’s what I do a few days of one and a few days of the other.
- • Facial Oils/serum
If you don’t already use one, now is the time to consider investing. If you’ve already boarded the facial oil train, try two drops under your moisturiser in the mornings to keep your skin protected throughout the day. Skin shouldn’t feel greasy when you do this, if it does, you’re using too much product. I would recommend the Celltrex Recovery Fluid Serum in my Nutricentials range here I adore the product it locks in moisture amazingly underneath your chosen moisturiser.
- • Change your routine times
Take advantage of the darker nights and perhaps getting home earlier and do your routine as soon as you get in from work/school run/college. Full cleanse, tone serum/oil application. Go about your business, check your skin hourly until you go to bed, and reapply if you feel like your skin is still absorbing. The skin has done most of its repairing work by 11pm, so don’t leave it until 10.30 when you’re going to bed, give it as much time as possible.
- • Upgrade your spritzes/mist spray – and use them liberally.
This is no time to be using spray water – like Evian in a can. You’ll be dehydrated already – most of us are in cold climates, and that will just make it worse. Use spritzes or essences that contain other ingredients, like minerals and oils, such as my NuSkin Moisture Mist Sprizt Spray it works as an extra layer of hydration and hold everything that follows in place, including individual serums and oils.
- Moisturisers
Finish off your routine from oily to combination via dry and sensitive with a moisturiser, there’s a way for everyone to tackle winter skin. Here are my favourite moisturisers. SPF should be used throughout the year, even in the winter! Sunscreen should be worn every day you plan on spending any time outdoors, all year round. Irecommend the Day Dream Protection Moisturising Light Lotion with added SPF30 it forms a gorgeous light base protection underneath your makeup.If you are just indoors chilling I would recommend the Dew all Day Moisture Restore Cream (my absolute favourite) its creamy light texture gives your skin a gorgeous dewy effect even without wearing makeup it contains aloe vera so its so kind to your skin. For the night time I recommend NuSkin AgeLoc Transforming Night Cream it is a rich hydrating cream that dramatically reduces the look of fine lines, wrinkles and pores, so you wake to glowing, smooth, supple skin. This exclusive cream features ageLOC to combat the ultimate sources of ageing. Plus, ultra-mild ingredients that mimic the skin’s own structure, working with its natural night-time renewal process for deeply hydrated, rejuvenated, youthful looking skin. These suggested products can be found in the LumiSpa Luxe Spa package or can be purchased sererately from me.
