You’d think my skin would go dry in Winter, but it’s the opposite for me. And especially with the hot to cold temperatures, my skin is\u00a0all over the place.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n
This\u00a0Oily Skin Balancer\u00a0<\/strong>from\u00a0The Jojoba Company\u00a0<\/strong>is great at balancing my oily T-zone and breakouts but still completely moisturising my cheeks and the rest of my face so it doesn’t dry out.<\/p>\n
It glides on easily after you’ve washed your face, and I found that it helped soothe my small pimples and helped them stay hydrated which resulted in no scarring when they retracted and disappeared.<\/p>\n
I sometimes added in a bit of Retinol Serum to amp up the cell-turnover further, but it’s great on its own as well.<\/p>\n

Cold Plunge Pore Mash by Ole Henriksen:<\/a><\/h3>\nThis is the newest brainchild from\u00a0Ole Henriksen\u00a0<\/strong>himself. It’s no secret that I’ve loved and adored Ole since my teenage-years as he was the first person who introduced me to skincare and helping me target my acne – fast forward, 16 years later and he’s no less wise.<\/p>\n
This detoxifying, cooling clay mask instantly reduces the look of pores, smoothens skin texture and controls oil all day. It’s bright blue which is fun and different, but this doesn’t mean it works less efficiently.<\/p>\n
Volume Spray by OUAI HAIRCARE:<\/a><\/h3>\n\u00a0I have incredibly thin & fine hair, and not much of it either.. So you can imagine for my hair to even gain the slightest bit of volume, some good products are in order to help me with that OOMPH..<\/p>\n
Enter, the OUAI Volume Spray.. I’ve actually used this spray for a little over 7 months after every shower, and I cant live without it.<\/p>\n
It’s non-sticky, non-drying and it sprays on easily at the roots. You don’t need much and a little goes a long way. Turn your head upside down when you blow-dry your hair, and discover a new dimension of VOLUME!<\/p>\n
Detox Dry Shampoo by DRYBAR:<\/a><\/h3>\nI’m a huge lover and also in serious need (everyday!) of dry shampoo.. I genuinely think it’s one of the best inventions since sliced bread! Don’t you agree?<\/p>\n
However, I’ve come across a lot of dry shampoo’s that 1) makes your hair more greasy or 2) dries your hair out. And then, what’s the point in spending your hard-earned money on it, if you’re just going to be walking around with average, oily or dry hair? My point exactly!<\/p>\n
Enter, this little Detox Dry Shampoo from\u00a0drybar<\/strong>. It’s super light, has a lovely fresh scent and you don’t need much of it, but even if you accidentally overuse it, it doesn’t make your hair gritty and ‘powdered’ like many others do.<\/p>\n
I’m a fan, and I keep repurchasing this one along with their\u00a0Dry Conditioner<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
Lip Scrub by Frank Body:<\/a><\/h3>\nWe all want luscious and pouty lips, but how many of us actually take care of them? It’s an area we tend to overlook, but it’s actually one of the first signs of ageing that will show – particularly the skin around the mouth.<\/p>\n
I love this little (and easy!) compact coffee lip scrub from\u00a0Frank Body<\/strong> which has their signature coffee-scent. It leaves the lips soft and blushy (from the blood-flow after scrubbing), but isn’t hard on your skin at all.<\/p>\n
The lip scrub is a mix of robusta coffee and coffee seed oil, raw sugar, cold-pressed macadamia oil and ethically sourced beeswax & it’s rich in fatty acids and antioxidants.<\/p>\n
Probiotic+ DS Soothing Serum by AMPERNA:<\/a><\/h3>\nThis little helper has really soothed my skin when I had an allergic reaction to a skin-product I used (painful!).<\/p>\n
Probiotics is the (newest) craze in almost everything at the moment. From what we eat, to what we put in our bodies and on our skin, probiotics is making a serious comeback because it’s so healing and gentle that most people can benefit from this.<\/p>\n
This deeply restorative formula from AMPERNA\u00a0<\/strong>cools and helps soothe irritated skin and calm redness. The copper and zinc gluconates help to limit the spread of harmful bacteria and replenish the skin barrier.<\/p>\n
If you especially suffer from rosacea, acne, dermatitis or any other skin-issues, I’d highly recommend trying this range from AMPERNA to see if it can help you.<\/p>\n

<\/h3>\nHyaluronic Acid Firming Eye Serum by SWISSE:<\/a><\/h3>\nThis eye serum from\u00a0Swisse<\/strong> just glides on so easily and instantly moisturises the under-eye area along with it’s soothing properties in the form of it’s gel-like consistency.<\/p>\n
It’s designed to boost the skin\u2019s moisture retention capabilities by combining hyaluronic acid, peptides and red algae extract to diminish the appearance of dark circles, and visibly improve skin texture.<\/p>\n
I use it both morning and night, and I’ve noticed a big difference in my dark circles under my eyes which has lightened, and also the tightness in the skin.<\/p>\n
