Keep Hands Soft

I love a good hand cream, especially when the winter months are taking their toll. I find hand creams quite addictive; if I have one there to use, I tend to apply frequently throughout the day. So, a generous sized bottle, with a formulation that works, helps a hand cream last.

Trilogy Rose Hand Cream (£13.20) is a fab little product that is a permanent feature on my desk at work, in my handbag, on my dressing table... I like to keep a few dotted around so I am never caught without! I am a fan of Trilogy Skincare as a brand (the Trilogy Botanical Body Wash is a firm favourite of mine) and this hand cream is just perfect for me.

I am not a big lover of rose scents, but I do love this one. The formulation is extremely nourishing and always leaves my hands feeling conditioned. It never leaves my hands greasy and absorbs fast. I also see a noticeable improvement in my cuticles and nails after a couple of weeks use too, thanks to the excellent blend of ingredients.

If you want to try something to soften even the roughest hands, I would give this Trilogy product a try.

Skin Therapy

As the dark evenings fast approach, winter is well and truly on its way. Skin tends to suffer more with the change in seasons than at any other time of year, so it is important to look after it. Barefoot Botanicals is a range designed to help with everyday skincare challenges, from dry and sensitive to premature ageing. The SOS range is the lifeline for those with extremely dry, sensitive, irritated or uncomfortable skin. The products deliver extreme moisturisation, are suitable for all ages and for those who may be prone to eczema and psoriasis. 

Restore skin with Barefoot SOS Soothing Face & Body Wash (£13.60), a gentle, non drying creamy wash for face and body. It gently cleanses without stripping your skin’s natural oils leaving you soft, refreshed and rehydrated. Follow with Barefoot SOS Daily Rich Body Lotion (£18.70) to restore dry and sensitive skin, and provide daily nourishment and moisture.

Hands can become dry in winter months, so massage Barefoot SOS Barrier Hand Cream (£11.10) into hands and nails to restore dry, rough hands and fingers. If your skin is seriously parched or distressed, then Barefoot SOS Face & Body Rescue Cream 100ml (£15.30) is a must. This rich cream, combining EFAs with therapeutic herbs, relieves itching, stinging and inflammation leaving skin feeling calm and soothed. The relaxing aroma of the pure essential oils is gorgeous too. Soft skin made easy.
