I love Spring time; it’s a time for new beginnings and fresh starts, and it’s the perfect time to try some new skincare (any excuse!).

De Mamiel have created seasonal facial oils blended for your skin’s specific needs throughout the year; besides environmental factors per season, we also eat differently at different times of the year and our lifestyle habits change too- with the help of these oils, our skin can adapt accordingly. The Spring oil is dreamy! Used at night (before moisturiser or alone) it’s a perfect blend of anti-oxidant rich aromatic oils and flower essences to nourish and energise the skin, de Mamiel Spring Facial Oil shakes off our wintery dullness and puts the brightness of spring back in our cheeks! And of course, it smells divine.

It’s a good idea to think about the face mask you are using in Spring too (if any) as we might still be suffering from winter dryness. Skin tends to get very dry over winter due to the harsh winds outside and the central heating inside, and unfortunately this dryness doesn’t disappear overnight. To get a spring/summer dewy glow, try the Aloe Vera packed True North De-Stressed Mask 1-2 times a week for 10 minutes. True North are a very interesting brand; they use unique ingredients (including soy isoflavones and peptides) to create fast acting, active formulas and they do skin analyses using the same biometrics as the F.B.I to predict how your skin might look in 5-10 years’ time! My hands always look much drier after the winter too so I have been using the mask on them as well- they looked 90% better after just one application!

Another thing to think about at this time of year having more daylight hours, is your daily SPF (I am a bit obsessive about this) it is SO important! An amazing spf, especially for those of you that aren’t keen on them, is the Murad Invisiblur Perfecting Shield spf 30. It is an anti-ageing formula that blurs, primes, moisturises and protects the skin with an invisible sunscreen. It is incredibly light and silky, it makes your skin look flawless and it’s a perfect base for makeup- no wonder it’s been winning beauty awards already! It’s also non-comedogenic (doesn’t block pores) so no excuses about blocked pores!!

So that’s your Spring skincare edit, we just need some Spring weather to go with it…
