10 Hot Winter Beauty Must-Haves
1 of 10Elemis Pro-Radiance Hand And Nail Cream, £24.00
The real hero in this ant-ageing wonder is the Omega 7 oil, which along with camellia and macadamia help to deeply nourish the skin.
2 of 10Aurelia Probiotic Skincare Refine & Polish Miracle Polish, £57.00
A powerhouse of fruit acids to exfoliate, rice bran to lift dead skin and an essential oil complex to hydrate, this scrub is your one-way ticket to supple skin in winter.
3 of 10Redken Pillow Proof Blow Dry Express Primer, £11.85
A Grazia Daily fave, this handy spritz has heat protection and helps whittle down your blowdrying time, but most importantly, keeps snow and sleet induced frizz at bay. Buy two.
4 of 10RITUALS Himalaya Scrub, £19.50
Blending Himalayan salt with essential almond oil, this scrub will slough off stubborn dead skin and leave you with a baby-soft body. A luxurious must-have.
5 of 10The Mio Body Brush, £14.50
Now, we can't be sure, but we reckon Elle Macpherson has about eight of these. The combo of boar bristles and little rubber massage nodules make this not your average body brush - it boosts lymphatic drainage and helps bust cellulite, as well as exfoliating. Detoxing just got a little more hardcore.
6 of 10Rodin Lip Balm, £20
A cult favourite, this balm has shea butter and castor seed oil, as well as a blend of jasmine and orange flower oils - making it THE most divine lip soother going.
7 of 10Elemental Herbology Tree Of Life Balm, £22.00
If you only buy one thing this winter, buy this. Multi-use, it can be used on dry skin, chapped lips, to tame eyebrows, as an intensive mask, as a cuticle oil, in your hair... Enriched with oils from the 'Tree of Life', (the Buriti tree) this antioxidant-charged number is our winter go-to.
8 of 10Verso Super Facial Oil, £135.00
This baby isn't cheap, but it packs a punch. Fortified with a kind-to-skin, exclusive-to-Verso complex called Retinol 8, this oil has more anti-ageing power than any other kind of Vitamin 8. Expect renewed, supple, youthful skin.
9 of 10Sally Hansen Miracle Gel Top Coat, £9.99
Protect your mani from chipping in your nightly hot bath or shower to banish the chill with this gel-effect, super-sealing top coat from Sally Hansen.
10 of 10Dior Huile Abricot Daily Nutritive Serum, £20.00
A luxury, we know, but this oil is for cuticle what a good brush is to your hair. This oil delivers smoothed-back, healthy cuticles and nourishes the nail and nail bed. We can't get enough.
If the permanent grey sky, minute-long days and freezing temperatures are anything to go by, winter is here to stay. Plus, it's the rubbish early-year kind of winter, without the festivities of Christmas or New Year to look forward to. In short, it's rubbish, you probably have a cold, it's raining constantly, oh and BLACK ICE everywhere.
While we can't offer much in the way of changing the temperature, we can make a few suggestions for beauty bits that might help ease the symptoms of the biting chill. From nourishing hand creams to super-charged scrubs, we've got a fix for all of winter's most common complaints. We also recommend developing a Game of Thrones-esque attitude to the whole thing and wearing a lot of epic furs, intricate braided ‘dos and cursing Jon Snow a lot. You know, just to spice things up a little here and there.
In addition to the aesthetic bothers of Britain’s longest season, we’d like to point you in the direction of a few handy health tips. One, zinc is better for a cold than Vitamin C. Two, your mum is right, wearing a scarf will pretty much stop you getting a sore throat. And three, you might not think you have a ‘hat face’, but it’s time to embrace the beanie, or lose your ears to frost bite. Have a click through the gallery to see our favourite buys to alleviate sore, tight skin, chapped lips and other cold-weather beauty bothers. You can thank us later.
