Tired winter skin? Dark circles? Thought so.
Time to whip your winter skin into shape. These are my top recommendations for skin that's a bit fed up:
1. Lipbalms: I have about 10 around my house, in my car, in my bag, coat pockets you name it. I'm a sucker for Smith's Rosebud Salve but By Terry's Baume de Rose is hands down my favourite. Remember lips need exfoliations too, try one of Lush's sugar scrubs which you can lick off. Its a special treat when you're on a no sugar diet.
2. Exfoliator: I like to get microdermabrasion once a month to keep my skin glowy and fresh however in between it's important to exfoliate. Be careful of drugstore exfoliators as they can be too rough on your skin, Kiehl's have a great pineapple and papaya one.
3. Cleansing: In winter I like to use a cleansing oil. This may shock people with oily or acne prone skin but it's perfectly safe as long as it's not too thick. My hands down favourite is the Boscia Makeup Breakup cleansing oil.
4. Moisturiser: I've started using a night serum from Olay which really does work wonders, you wake up with a glow. During the day I've returned back to the cult favourite Embriolysse. It's light, gentle and does the job. Somehow the French are always right.
5. Masks: Two masks save my life, first is the Bliss Triple Oxygen foaming mask which is extra fun if you're planning on scaring your neighbours. The second is my HOLY GRAIL of all masks, the Eve Lom rescue mask which is a medicine cabinet essential.
I can't recommend eye creams right now because the one that I'm using burns my eyes and gives me circles. If anyone is looking for an eye cream that makes your eyes feel like they're being barbecued I'd be happy to help!
For most people, this is the closest we will ever come to Jack Sparrow. A Westwood classic, a wardrobe staple. The best part of owning these boots is that the more roughed up they get, the more you wear them to pillage, steal and ransack other boats the better they look. Grab yours now from the US Outnet.
I was going to add in some pirate arr-ing but I just thought that was too cliche.

The thought of swimwear at Christmas is something that leaves most women in a hot sweat. If like me you've slightly over done it on the comfort food and made yourself believe that everyone gains weight over winter then I have your answer: rouched one pieces. This little number will hide all your lumps and bumps but is also sexy enough to make you appear less beached whale and more Sports Illustrated meets couture. Let's hope.
