The BD team’s go-to products for surviving and thriving during the winter chill.
Sukin Renewing Body Scrub - Green Tea and Jojoba – Issy
What it is: A renewing body scrub made from natural antioxidants.
My experience: This scrub is gentle and helps skin feel refreshed, clean and exfoliated. Made from green tea, jojoba and rosehip oil, it hydrated my skin leaving it soft and nourished.
Natio Home Happiness Ceramic Essential Oil Burner Gift & Starter Set – Caitlin
What it is: An aromatherapy gift set which contains an oil burner, essential oil blend and meditation CD.
My experience: I used all three products right before bed, and together they helped relax my mind and body, so I was able to slip into a good night’s sleep. The oil blend has a subtle yet calming scent, and the CD transported me to a distant rainforest.
Circa Home 1969 Narcissus & Patchouli Classic Candle – Georgie
What it is: A warming candle with a sultry blend of Orange Blossoms and spice combined with Bergamot, Cardamom and Musk.
My experience: I love Circa Home candles and this warming scent is perfect for the winter months. It’s a very inviting smell so perfect to light when guests come over for a glass of wine or two. The fragrance lingers nicely even after the candle has gone out meaning that my favourite scent in the world – orange blossom – is still in the air when I wake up the next morning. Heaven.
Guerlain Shalimar Souffle De Parfum Collector Edition – Aja
What it is: A feminine eau de parfum for women after a classic, oriental scent.
My experience: The warm notes of sweet vanilla, amber and bergamot make this fragrance perfect for the cooler months. The limited-edition bottle, inspired by India's National bird the peacock, adds a luxurious touch and is perfect for displaying on your bathroom counter.
LYCON SoBerry Lotion – Laura
What it is: A strawberry scented, lightweight body lotion that works to hydrate the skin.
My experience: I applied this body lotion all over right after showering and it absorbed thoroughly, leaving absolutely zero residue! My skin felt soft and smooth after and maintained it’s moisture throughout the day.
Clarins Tonic Body Treatment Oil – Steph
What it is: A 100 per cent pure body oil that moisturises and promotes suppleness.
My experience: Just a little bit of this luxe body oil applied on damp skin instantly revives and hydrates dry and scaly limbs. My body instantly feels revived and nourished and the organic scent is really refreshing - bliss.
Saya Skincare Cleansing Lotion – Tash
What it is: A certified organic cleansing lotion infused with enzymes to thoroughly cleanse, effectively remove impurities and refine skin.
My experience: This silky smooth cleanser not only removed makeup residue but also deeply cleansed my skin. Formulated with papaya to gently exfoliate and remove dead skin cells, I noticed an instant improvement in texture and tone after cleansing. Passionflower and aloe vera also helped to soothe and hydrate my skin for a glowing complexion in this dull winter weather.
Environ Skincare A, C & E Body Oil – Sam
What it is: A combination A, C & E vitamin body oil that deeply nourishes dry or sun damaged skin and is suitable for both face and body.
My experience: This oil is completely odourless which means it can easily be used with your regular beauty routine. I really enjoyed how quick this product was to fully absorb into my skin as I can’t stand that oily residue that some products leave behind. I also love the fact that this product is full of vitamin goodness.
CND Creative Nail Design Aurora Collection - VINYLUX® Weekly Polish System – Tina
What it is: A pale blue with silver and blue glitter nail polish.
My experience: If you’re after a fun and frosty finish, the CND Weekly Polish System in the shade Glacial Mist is for you. The icy blue shade combined with the silver and blue glitter looks awesome during the winter season.
jane iredale Mineral Makeup Hydration Spray - POMMISST™ – Zoe
What it is: A hydrating boost of antioxidants that hydrate and protect the skin.
My experience: Harsh winds and cold weather this winter have wreaked havoc on my skin. I keep this hydration spray on my desk and a small spritz always soothes redness and instantly hydrates. Plus, the scent is divine and super calming.
