When it comes to caring for my skin in summer, I get pretty lazy. I can strip back my routine to the bare bones of cleansing and moisturising, and my complexion doesn’t seem to be the slightest bit effected. Winter, however, is a whole other story. As soon as the temperatures start to plummet, so does my skin’s appearance. My lips chap, my eyes water, my skin becomes irritated, and almost every morning I wake up to find a new spot has taken up residence on my face.
Sure, it used to knock my confidence, but as I’ve come to expect this annual skin meltdown, I know how to better combat it. I start reintroducing acids to my regimen, and have various masks on rotation. However, as my skin is suffering more this year than most – I put it down to fabric mask-wearing, spending more time indoors, and generally just feeling a bit run-down – I’ve begun looking for new products to improve my skin. And, as it so often happens, I feel as if I’m being followed on social media by one specific product.
