Keeping your skin in great condition in the winter can be quite a challenge. A combination of chilly winds and indoor heating can diminish hydration levels, leading to an itchy, dry and dull complexion as well as breakouts, eczema and psoriasis.

Because our natural exfoliation process tends to slow down at this time of the year, we need to give our skin a helping hand and choosing an effective cleanser is the best place to start.

When it comes to cleansers it’s certainly not a case of one-size fits all, and in fact switching the products you use can help – swapping a foam one for a more gentle cream one for example – to avoid stripping the skin of its essential moisture. When washing your face don’t use hot water; instead make sure it’s lukewarm so it doesn’t irritate skin and make sure you pat dry with a soft towel.

Ensure you include a regular exfoliation in your routine to remove the build-up of dead skin calls and protect the skin’s natural protective barrier.

My New Edition Cleanser contains my patented ABEETOXIN® formula which means it not only deeply cleans the skin but also controls facial muscles for an immediate tightening and firming effect. The addition of vitamin A helps resurface and repair cells, and also promotes eyelash growth.

A non-abrasive exfoliator, toner and cleanser in one – my Cleanse & Foam Wash helps to improve elasticity levels while balancing oil levels to reduce shine on your T-Zone. Thanks to the presence of organic carrot oil – which contains healing vitamin A – it also rejuvenates and repairs the skin.

A real multi-purpose must-have, Heaven’s Hydro Cleansing Milk hydrates skin and removes daily pollutants while it cleanses. Created with delicate organic jojoba – the closest match to our own natural oil – it helps to balance and condition our complexion while being gentle enough for all skin types.
