New Year, New Skin

So it's 2017 and I am trying to get back into the blogging swing, it's 11 pm and I am rather tired so let's see how this goes. I've come to the understanding that blogging shouldn't be forced but for some reason tonight, for the first time in months I feel a real kick to start writing. So here I am.

With a New Year comes a new start and if over Christmas you've been neglecting your skin, a little like myself then you can jump back on the waggon with me.

I don't know about you but I have had this awful winter cold that is going around and my skin is super dry. So the first step is hydration and I say when it comes to skin, the dewier the better. If like me dewy skin is your destination then you need to invite the Kypris Antioxidant Dew into your skincare routine. This super potent serum has become a favourite of mine recently and it has really boosted the glow in my skin, I have a whole rave review on it HERE. I have been loyal to my Murad moisturiser for years but recently I have fallen in love with the Clinique Moisture Surge Extended Thirst Relief Moisturiser. Its light texture and ultra hydrating formula is so comfortable on the skin that I haven't wanted to use anything else. Dark circles have been the enemy lately and there is nothing like the January blues to get those bags showing. The Darphin Ideal Resource Dark Circle Eye Illuminator is the perfect morning after late night pick me up. It has a slight peach tone to it which corrects the dark circles and the cool metal tip melts away any bags, ahh bliss. If my skin is feeling super yuck and lack lustre then it is time to bring the big guns out, in the form of Omorovicza's Oxygen Booster. I have again written all about this gem HERE if you want to know more, but in short it is super hydrating, firming, and adds that punch of glow. To get the glow we speak off, exfoliation is crucial, and personally I am not one for heavy scrubs or masks when it comes to sloughing away those dead skin cells. I am a huge fan of a chemical exfoliants in liquid form like Alapha-H's Liquid Gold. This hero product has been around for donkeys years but some how I have only just got round to trying it. The formula is maybe a little to harsh for very sensitive skins but I find used just once weekly it gives my skin that much needed brightening and makes it feel as soft as a feather. Lastly of course January is certainly the right time to get in some skin pampering, pop on you favourite mask and think of your resolutions ahead. A current favourite of mine is the Peter Thomas Roth Cucumber Gel Mask. This neon green slim looks pretty grim but it feels incredible on the skin. The gentle formula soothes and hydrates while calming any red winter complexion. After a particularly heavy night this popped in the fridge and then slathered on is amazing.

So, What's your New Year, New Skin resolution?

Love...
