I wanted to share three beauty products that are getting me through the cold weather. There are a few tools and products that I turn to as my skin and hair seem totally different depending on the months — here are a few that I’ve been using recently.
ONE | Aesop Reverence Aromatique Hand Balm | This balm is so good for my hands that get so, so dry in the winter. Especially with how often I wash them {London underground hands, ew} which completely strips any moisture that my hands have. This balm is extremely thick, it takes a while for the skin to absorb it but it keeps my skin so soft. It also smells amazing. very natural and earthy.
TWO | Shu Uemura Silk Bloom Treatment Masque | My hair dresser recommended this to me when I was asking him about getting a keratin treatment done on my hair. He said that the keratin would make my hair too flat and I wouldn’t like it. This was suggested as an alternative to the keratin treatment {and when you’re comparing costs, this masque is a bargain versus the full keratin treatments}. I use this once a week on my hair. There was a noticeable difference the first time I used it {my hair didn’t turn into a NatFro at the first sign of humidity, it kept it’s shape and was really soft} but the more I use it the healthier and stronger my hair gets. It also smells delicious! I will keep buying this, it’s definitely the best treatment I’ve found for my giant, frizzy hair and the price is totally worth it.
THREE | Burberry Fresh Glow Fluid in Golden Radiance | Skin can tend to get a bit ashy in the winter months. I mix this in with my foundation {just a little bit goes a long way} to add in a little more color and a fresh, dewey look. I love it! I wouldn’t recommend it for very oily skin as it could start to look greasy — mine tends to be dry so it works ok for me.
What about you? What beauty products do you incorporate into your routine for winter?
That hand cream has been on my wish list for a while! May just need to order it soon! Great products Natalie! As always you have amazing taste!
That hair mask sounds like just the thing I need!
I’ve heard about this hand cream, but it’s good to read your thoughts on this. Sounds like a perfect hand cream for ‘the London hands’! One of the products I love using in winter is a Rosehip Oil – I mix it up with my face moisturiser and I’ve noticed that my skin looks a bit plumpier and not as dry as it used to.
Oh I LOVE Aesop. Oh my gosh it’s one of the best. And such cute branding too. I have been using a lot of coconut oil on my face at night lately. Keeps my skin from getting too dry.
I just came across the aesop shop in San Fran and I was wondering about the products, good to know that about the hand lotion, my hands get very dry too!
