It’s time for a change

Hi my loves,

it is time to change our daily skin routine. Now in winter we need a quite different care than in fall. Our skin is rough and dry because of the ongoing changes of climate, heating and cold. This is a lot of stress for our skin. So it is time to pamper our skin with rich and moisturizing creams. Lay it on thick is allowed!

If you have enough time use a face mask 2-3 times a week. A real thick layer. I prefer to go to bed with my mask. So I awake with skin like a baby. Well, ok almost 🙂

Pamper and treat yourself whenever you have the time for it!

In winter it is also time to take some hot baths. For me it is one of the best ways to relax. I just take a good book, a glass of red wine and some scented bathing salt. I like lavender a lot. It helps me to switch off. I also have 2 small bags with fresh lavender flowers (from our garden) next to me in my bedroom. The ethereal oils are balm for my soul.

After taking a bath I use some creams for my body. I prefer almond, lavender and citrous flavours. Wrapped in one of these flavours I fall asleep after a long working day. Heaven on earth!

But of course we should not leave our daily face care beyind. Sun defence is also a must in winter! Even if the sun is not shining. UV rays don’t care about the season. I have also mentioned it here some time ago. If you are an enthusiastic winter sportswoman you already know the sun cream from Avène, right? The ulitmate must-have! And before that I usually use a strengthening and rich in vitamins serum. So I am prepared!

For in-between I refresh my skin with a thermal water spray. In summer and also in winter. My skin is thankful and reward myself with a fresh and clear appearance! By the way: thermal water is perfect to fix your make-up. I use it as a finish. So my make-up does not look like a mask at all.
