You know what I think you can never go wrong with, no matter your skin type? A moisturising skin care regime. Why? A few reasons.
As I'm writing this I can confidently say. Winter is here. And no, I'm not living my alternative life in Westeros - I'm talking the real world. New Zealand is in Winter. And whilst there is something to be said for those rosy (albeit cold) cheeks, winter generally means our skin is going to suffer. The bracing winter air causes our skin to be more dry than usual.
And in Summer? Well you gotta keep that moisture locked in for fresh, glowing summer skin. You don't want to look like you've spent forty days in the desert.
And here's the thing - even if you don't think your skin is particularly dry right now, nature is against you. You see a common factor of ageing skin is in fact, dryness. As we age our skin thins, collagen production lessons and we lose oil glands. All of these factors contribute to increasingly dry skin. Add to that the fact that dead skin cells do not shed as quickly and the turnover of new skin cells decreases slightly and you can see why including moisturising ingredients in your skin care routine becomes more and more important.
Well. Do we have a power house trial opportunity coming up. We're looking for some of our Expert Reviewers to put THREE products by the ever-fabulous Linden Leaves to the test. Each member of this trial team will review the:
Miraculous Facial Oil
An antioxidant-rich treatment oil to help repair and regenerate skin cells. This natural oil is enhanced with natural ingredients such as rose hip to soften and treat the skin whilst reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. High in antioxidants, this hydrating facial oil provides an instant boost to skin and delivers a radiant glow.
Essential Facial Moisturiser
A light moisturising cream rich in carotenoids and allantoin to help treat blemishes and enhance the skin’s recovery cycle. This moisturiser aims to improve skin elasticity by maintaining moisture levels and balancing skin to restore a youthful appearance.
Regenerating Night Cream
A restorative night cream enriched with powerful natural ingredients to aid overnight skin repair and slow the visible signs of ageing. With the antioxidant properties of certified organic white tea and vitamin rich goji berry, this night cream leaves skin looking hydrated and glowing. Special ingredients such as echium, meadowfoam, mulberry and sweet almond oil work to deeply nourish and firm the skin in a gentle formulation.
Yes it is crucial for the products I choose. My skin is on the dry side so I love lush moisturisers that make my skin feel nurtured. The linden leaves products have always impressed me. (I love their rose massage body oil ) so I would be very excited to test this range!
