Beauty Essentials you will need this Winter

Does Winter call for different beauty products? In my opinion, it absolutely does. The cold has a real effect on our bodies and that calls for specialised products.

As always, I am one for ‘less is more’, so the less products you can buy and get away with, the better.

Here is my list of Winter Beauty Essentials:

 

Anne Semonin nude body scrub, 200ml

Costs £79 from Net a Porter (currently on sale for £55) or Luisa Via Roma (£90)

Susanne Kaufmann Bath Oil for the Senses

Costs £25 for 100ml from Alkaya (very interesting website which has all her range and global free shipping, perfect for gifts) and Cult Beauty. 

My star bath product for a few years now – it just smells divine and instantly relaxes me.

The Chemistry Brand Hydration Complex, 100ml

Costs from £12 from Look Fantastic UK  (they also have a North American website) 

I have ‘hard heels’ and have been looking for something that really worked – and this is the best cream I found so far. I love the Look Fantastic website as they really have a great mix of brands and this little thing did everything it said. Start with a fresh pedicure and you may be in for 3 weeks before you may need another one (if only nails didn’t grow!).

La Mer Hand Treatment, 100ml

Costs £85/$85 from La Mer UK, Selfridges, or Nordstrom (it is slightly cheaper in the USA, which is not always the norm with this brand)

Pricey? A little. But it is rich yet not sticky, has a very subtle scent and really does hydrate your hands like very few others. You really notice how dry patches disappear and a nice subtle shine. A little goes a long way, so do expect it to last a whole Winter.

For other hand cream ideas, see my edit.

By Terry Baume De Rose SPF15

Costs £40 from: Harrods, Net-A-Porter, Saks Fifth Avenue

One of the best lip balms around for a while now – it is obviously one of my 5 tried and tested lip balms for Winter. I like the subtle taste but what I really like is how it truly prevents lip chapping and how it restores your lips when it is too late. You will keep buying this product.

Dior Ambre Nuit Hand Soap, 350ml

Costs £50 and you can get it from Dior or select airport locations

This was one of my last airport purchases pre-lock down and I LOVE this scent. It is warm, it is sexy – I love Amber. And the bottle is also gorgeous (and much larger than many others featured below)

If you like hand washes, have a look at my favourite ones.

REVLON Pro Collection Salon One Step Hair Dryer and Volumiser

Costs from £55/$45 from Amazon UK, Amazon USA

Currently sold out in the UK. But a new version for medium and shorter hair is now available and it is fantastic. 

For best results, let hair air dry for 5 minutes or so, so it isn’t dripping wet (but it still works well). As I am a tiny bit lazy, those 5 minutes allow me to style the hair much faster. Current timing is 10 minutes. Watch this short video (it is the one that made me buy it)

Boots Dual Defence Nasal Spray 20ml

Costs £5.99 from Boots

I have to thank Mary-Anne, a blog reader from the USA for this one who asked if I could buy this spray (a handful of them) for her. I was intrigued and bought an extra one for myself – and for the past 2 winters, we have been living on this. As soon as you get the first sign of a cold, you start spraying. I don’t want to jinx it, but we have been cold-free for 2 winters now and I buy this for all my family, name each with a sharpie and wouldn’t dare travel without it. Is this a beauty product? Well, maybe!

I hope you like my selection of Winter beauty products and do let me know if you try one more more.

If you are looking for more specific round ups, have a look at my favourite luxury hand washes, hand creams and hand sanitisers. And also my Spring, Summer and Autumn beauty essentials.

Another week, another table setting, because why not? We are on our 3rd week of lockdown and I’m finding it much harder than before. The motivation to cook is dwindling but has to be done. What are you planning to cook this week? We are having zaatar chicken thighs tonight, Cottage pie tomorrow and steak Wednesday. Leave a comment below so it may inspire someone else, please. Every little helps (and thank you!)
It’s the first #PrawnThursday of 2021 and deserves to be immortalised on the feed. Our fishmonger took a little break and now I can say, it feels like proper lockdown. (For background, we discovered this great fishmonger who comes to our door every Thursday in April last year and he’s definitely made our lockdowns much better). Do you like #prawns or not so much?
Very wise words by my dear friend @molly.schoneveld. They really struck a chord. Here’s to a good first week of 2021.
As 2020 comes to an end, it will certainly be a year we won’t forget, ever. It was tragic in more ways than others, but there were also silver linings.

Let’s try this again. Christmas 2020 at the Os. Very grateful. 😍
In a challenging year for everyone in the world, we met the most important person of our lives. I know we ‘are not there yet’, but today it feels we are, so that’s exactly what today and tomorrow is all about. We have each other and our health and that is all we want for Christmas. Wishing you and your families a very Merry Christmas.
