My Winter Skincare Routine
Really thrilled that you’ve been liking my skincare content that I’ve been putting out there! On my Instagram, a lot of you have been asking about my Winter skincare and makeup routine so here is a quick blog showing you all the products I use daily.
GOOD MORNING
Skincare
The first thing I do when I wake up is wash my face.
I use this C Cleansing Gel from Obagi at the moment and afterwards I apply the tonic with a cotton pad.

“Even when we’re freezing our tushes out there, the sun is always out so protect those gorgeous faces with an SPF always to avoid early aging!”
Then I apply the C Clarifying Serum from Obagi and tap it well into the skin followed by a small amount of Skinesis Dynamic Defence. I love this day cream as it’s not greasy and makes your skin feel nourished and protects.

Last step is my Dr Dennis Gross SPF50 cream mixed with one pump of D-Bronzi from Drunk Elephant. This is a must even during the winter days and gives a nice glow.
GOOD MORNING
Makeup
My skin has gotten so much better recently (hallelujah!)… so much so that I stopped using foundation. Instead, I apply a powder I recently discovered from Colorescience, the colour I use is Natural Finish no. 20. I finish off with a Laura Mercier concealer called Flawless Fusion. Loving that natural look and way less maintenance- this is a lazy makeup girl’s dream!

Then I use a bit of the bronzer from Charlotte Tilbury and her blush Cheek to Chic.

I like a nude look during the day so the eye shadow palette Pillow Talk is best for me and I’m never without mascara ! I swear by Legendary Lashes by Charlotte Tilbury. My absolute favourite lip balm is from Sulwhasoo, have one of those in all my handbags.

Good Night
skincare & makeup removal
First things first...Cleanse ! I absolutely never go to bed without cleansing my skin.
I use the eye makeup remover Lash Boosting Eye Cleanse from Sarah Chapman which is really good (it boosts eyelash growth too- woo!), then I wipe off my makeup with a simple Micellar Water from Garnier to get anything extra off.

Afterwards I use the same face wash as the morning and about three times a week I add the Dual Action Scrub to it from ZOSkin Health.

Peels are a must to get great skin as it really helps your skin absorb all of your products and helps your skin to renew itself.

During winter season I apply the C Therapy Night Cream from Obagi (I started gradually as it can make your skin tingle in the beginning) and the Eye Cream from Endocare Cellpro. On top I apply the Hydrate Facial Moisturiser from Obagi Medical.
