The Alps Are Calling...

Au Revoir mes amies! The Alps are calling and I'm off for a mini-break of sun and snow! Anyone who skis knows that while skiing at speed and not breaking your leg is the optimum outcome, the main objective is to look good while doing it. It's coming to the end of the ski season which means that it's less cold and more sunny! Sun, snow, style and vin chaud on the slopes....am I going to heaven?! The main worry for me when skiing is always my skin. Cold weather may mean great snow but it also means chapped lips, dry skin and blemishes. Body Shop Lip Butters have always been an absolute necessity for me year-round but in cold weather they don't always do the trick. My fail-safe lip balm is the Benefit Lipscription, you get one lip-buffing product and a lip balm to smooth over the top. If you haven't already got one you should definitely invest!



For my skin, I like to use a gloopy, thick moisturiser which keeps skin hydrated all day. I've recently started using the Body Shop Vitamin C moisturiser, there's all sorts available from the range and they are fantastic! Enriched with Vitamin C and, Amazonian camu camu and sesame seed oil, it also has an SPF 30 meaning skin is protected as well as moisturised!
