Hi Guys,
It's nearly Christmas, that means it's been winter for a whole month!
I thought it was a good time to share some of the products I have absolutely been loving over the winter season.
My first essential is a good moisturiser, something that's going to help my skin glow, be hydrated and have an SPF.
My choice is the 'Million dollar moisturiser' from Lush. I know, I know! I've been banging on about this all year but it truly is one of my faves and with the cold weather drying out my skin it's nice to have something a bit more protective.

I love multipurpose items and a really nice one I've been using is 'Dr Paw Paw's tinted peach balm'. Not only does this make my lips super soft it actually leaves the most gorgeous pinky coral shade on my skin. It's sheer enough that it just looks like your natural lip or cheek, but healthier.

Next up is probably my most used winter essential this year! 'Salt and peppermint bark' from Lush. This amazing salt scrub is great for making my skin super soft and it helps to remove all the little lumps and bumps from my arms and legs. the smell is incredible, like candy canes. The little chunks of cocoa and cupauçu butter help to soften and moisturise as you go.

My ' Hask Argan oil' has been a savior for my hair this winter. I just apply this to damp hair and it makes my hair look shiny and full of life. I have quite damaged ends and with the air-con and heating they can become frizzy and dry. The vitamin E in Argan oil is an antioxidant so it helps protect the hair's cell structure making everything look salon fresh.

The Tanya Burr cosmetics nail polish in 'duvet day' has been my go to colour recently. A really pretty icy blue that has become a replacement for my everyday nudes. You do need three coats but it dries fairly quickly and I've had a good few complements on my nails when I wear it.

I love having a bath in winter and I have two Bath products that I love to use. The first is the 'Yog Nog' bath bomb from lush. This is an amazing custard yellow, egg nog, caramel scented bomb that has loads of Shea butter in to make your skin feel good as new. The second is the 'Sanctuary Foaming Bath Soak' from Boots. I love the smell and it makes the water feel fantastic.

Last but by no means least, a killer lipstick. I have been wearing the New Look 'pure colour' lipstick in Plum. super soft and has a rich dark red colour to it. A bit like MAC's 'Sin' but without the staying power. A nice dupe if you're on a budget.. like me.
