    The 3 Extra Thick Moisturisers I’m Reaching For This Winter

    May 15, 2022 Steff

    Winter is coming… actually, between the single-digit evenings and the frosty early mornings, it very much feels like Winter is already here. And although I’m a big fan of layering…

I just finished my @jordansamuelskin Hydrate Mist I just finished my @jordansamuelskin Hydrate Mist and as much as I loved it, especially over the Summer (and will repurchase in the future), I wanted something with a bit more 'oomph' now that Winter is here and my skin has really dried out. I couldn't decide between these two so I ordered both 🙃⁠
⁠
@elemis Superfood Kefir-Tea Mist⁠
A nourishing, antioxidant-rich mist with Tea Extract, Aloe Vera, Coconut Water, and Prebiotics to help balance the surface of the skin. Acts as a toner, primer and hydrating setting spray in one.⁠
⁠
@laneige_anz Cream Skin Mist⁠
An incredibly fine mist with White Leaf Tea Water and Amino Acids to strengthen the skin's moisture barrier. I've used this one a few times so far and really like it.⁠
⁠
Have you tried either of these before?? 💦⁠

How is it July? 🤯 ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ I’ve had a busy How is it July? 🤯 ⁠ ⁠
⁠
I’ve had a busy, tiring, distracting month and I haven’t done enough of the things I’ve needed to do let alone the things I've wanted to do so reading has definitely fallen by the wayside.⁠
⁠
I'll be spending July playing catch-up on ⁠all the things; life admin, general errands and hopefully a fair bit of reading too. ⁠
⁠
These are the books that I'd hoped to read in monthly stacks so far this year but didn't end up getting to/finishing so if I can get through these this month I'll be stoked.⁠

What are you reading at the minute?? 📚️⁠

You know you really love a cleanser when you buy t You know you really love a cleanser when you buy the big version as your backup 😆 ⁠
⁠
This is just about the only cleanser mild enough for my skin in the morning, but somehow it also works incredibly well in the evenings to remove the day too. It's a gel that melts into an oil, and then emulsifies into a milk as you add water, then rinses clean. Magic. ⁠
⁠
This is a great product, full stop, but when you remember the price it makes it all the more extraordinary - the 50ml is $13.90 and the 150ml is $34.90. ⁠

Have you tried this product before??⁠

3 In, 3 Out ...⁠ A few of my recent empties and 3 In, 3 Out ...⁠
A few of my recent empties and what I'm swapping them for⁠:⁠
⁠
⬅️ @aspectskin Extreme B17 Serum⁠
This has been a favourite for so long, I mix a half pump of this with a few drops of my favourite Hyaluronic Acid for my perfect serum but I'm keen to see if the below product fills that spot.⁠
➡️ @viviologyskin Niacinamide and HA Serum⁠
I'm pretty excited about this new launch. It smells gorgeous, absorbs so quickly and doesn't feel tacky or sticky on the skin. Early days but so far, so good!⁠
⁠
⬅️ @rodialbeauty Dragon's Blood Velvet Cream⁠
This is the ultimate thick and creamy moisturiser for Winter, it's basically solid and has the most indulgent, buttery consistency that my skin just drinks up. I finished this huge tub which has lasted me ages, but I wanted to try something more accessible.⁠
➡️ @elfcosmeticsau Holy Hydration! Face Cream⁠
I read that this was a 'dupe' of a very fancy (very expensive!) face cream which piqued my interest, but then I saw it was sold out everywhere and then I *really* had to try it. ⁠Feels like a rich cream but doesn't feel greasy in the slightest.⁠
⁠
⬅️ @larocheposayaunz Toleriane Ultra Eye Cream⁠
I've really enjoyed this eye cream, it's simple but it hydrates really well and the tiny pump means you get just the right amount each time. Was planning on repurchasing but the below caught my eye.⁠
➡️ @cerave_aunz Eye Repair Cream⁠
This is so much thicker and creamier than I was expecting, but it's not heavy at all. My eyes are quite sensitive to Milia if I use really heavy/buttery products around them, but I've been using this for over a week so far and I've had no issues, just hydration and comfort.⁠

Well, Winter has well and truly settled in now, so I wanted to share the link again because I'm still loving them ☃️⁠

Talking a few non-face favourites today, specifica Talking a few non-face favourites today, specifically oils 🍯⁠
⁠
✨ @joicoaustralianz KPAK Hair Oil⁠
Unfortunately, this gorgeous and lightweight oil has been discontinued so I'll be on the hunt for an alternative soon. If anyone knows of a hair oil that works for thin, dehydrated hair without weighing it down but still adds hydration and shine (quite the demand, I know) send your recommendations my way, please!⁠
⁠
✨ @essie Apricot Cuticle Oil⁠
This makes such a difference to the strength of my nails, and obviously keeps my cuticles looking better too. I need to get better at using this more regularly, but even just once a week makes such a difference.⁠
⁠
✨ @dermalogicaaus Phyto Replenish Body Oil⁠
If you like a fast-absorbing body oil that hydrates without feeling greasy, I suggest you look into this one! I apply this post-shower (before, after or instead of body cream depending on how my dry skin is feeling) a couple of times a week and just let it soak in for a few minutes before I get dressed.⁠
⁠
Are there any oils you're loving at the minute??⁠

A modern murder mystery, a classic who-dun-it, an A modern murder mystery, a classic who-dun-it, an unexpected domestic thriller, a suspenseful police procedural - pick whatever sub-category you like because the umbrella term of ‘mystery’ covers quite a bit, but that’s all I want when it’s cold, dark and gloomy out 🖤⁠
⁠
Today's blogpost is about the thriller reads I have perched on my nightstand prepped for my Winter reading cravings, hopefully, it gives you a nudge if you're looking for any reading inspo for the next few months 🌨️⁠

Every morning I mix my favourite Niacinamide Serum Every morning I mix my favourite Niacinamide Serum with my favourite Hyaluronic Acid Serum to make my all-time, top-tier, crème de la crème blend that makes my skin feel amazing - so when I saw that @viviologyskin was launching exactly that in a perfectly blended single product I knew I had to give it a whirl.⁠
⁠
This very new brand has just launched with six products and I've ordered the three that I think my skin will like the most:⁠
✨ Ceramide Moisturiser 50ml⁠
✨ Gentle Foaming Cleanser 200ml⁠
✨ Niacinamide + HA Serum 30mL⁠
⁠
⁠So excited to get these all on my face, but I'll be starting with the Serum first thing tomorrow and easing the others into my routine over the coming weeks. ⁠
⁠
Have you heard about this brand yet??⁠
