As restrictions ease and we’re starting to get our social life back on track many of us are now meeting friends and family to dine outdoors. But after months being locked down, it’s vital that we take care of our skin.
REACH FOR A SERUM:
If you’ve been enjoying the great outdoors recently you may have noticed that your complexion is a bit on the dry side, especially as the weather starts to warm up. Add a serum to your daily routine, because they penetrate deeper than a moisturiser and are easier for our epidermis to absorb. My SOS Oil Serum balances oil levels, hydrates and feed the skin while its vitamin content can help to repair acne, scars and damage. Team it with a healthy dose of my Silver Bee Venom Mask for the ultimate treat.
MAKE LIFE EASY:
When you get home from a night out you may not feel up to cleansing you skin. Make it easy on yourself by putting your products by your bed so you don’t forget this important step. Grab an Ella Jane Health wipe and use with my Hydro Cleansing Milk to really shift the day’s grime – not only will this ensure you’re having a thorough cleanse but it will make your products last longer too.
PUT A STOP TO SENSITIVITY:
After a day or evening outdoors you need a product that will repair skin and soothe any sensitivity your may have. By harnessing the power of our own interferons – proteins that are produced by a variety of cells – my new Dock Cream nourishes and softens, healing over-indulged skin to leave it looking and feeling its best.
RESIST OVER-INDULGING:
It’s easy to say yes to one too many glasses of fizz when you’re seeing friends for the first time in ages and there are few things nicer than sharing a bottle in the sunshine. Because alcohol is a diuretic it’s very dehydrating; it decreases our antioxidants – which help cell renewal – meaning you become more susceptible to damage from the sun, pollution and free radicals. It can also have a negative effect on collagen production, leaving skin looking aged and dull.
THE POWER OF PRISM
My Age Defiance Cream has been reformulated with Prism Light Defiance TechnologyTM to boost the skin’s own natural defence system, turning the sun’s rays into a day at the spa. It works in tandem with light to inform your skin to replenish specific areas with more elastin and collagen – you’ll look younger after being alfresco!
DRESS YOUR SKIN:
Protect with a layer of foundation to help block the sun’s rays – just make sure you apply it all over your face, nose, chin and forehead especially. My Silk Skin Bee Bee Cream is the first all-day BB cream that contains hyaluronic acid and ABEETOXIN®. It is designed to moisturise your skin, tackle breakouts and reduce fine lines. It also boasts an SPF 20 and reacts to the colour of your skin. In fact, my daughter Ella Jane (pictured below) swears by it, it not only gives her a radiant glow but also stops her skin from drying out.
