 Pursuing peace and tranquillity in contemporary society is paramount for nurturing optimal mental and physical health. One of the most effective ways to unwind and rejuvenate is by indulging in a spa and massage experience. While visiting a professional spa like Banya No.1 in Chiswick can offer unparalleled relaxation, it's only sometimes feasible. However, with a few simple tips and tricks, you can recreate the blissful ambience of a spa right in the comfort of your own home. Join us as we explore how to craft the perfect spa and massage experience that will leave you feeling refreshed and revitalised.

SPA

Setting the Scene
Creating the right ambience is crucial for a relaxing spa experience. Begin by setting the mood with soft lighting, calming music, and aromatic scents. Adjust the illumination by dimming overhead lighting or employing candles to cultivate a cosy and welcoming ambience. Choose soothing music or nature sounds to help you unwind and release stress. Use oils or incense to fill the air with calming fragrances like lavender or eucalyptus.

Incorporating Heat Therapy
One of the signature features of Banya No.1 - Chiswick is its traditional Russian Banya experience, which involves alternating between hot and cold temperatures to stimulate circulation and detoxify the body. While replicating the whole Banya experience at home may not be feasible, you can still incorporate heat therapy into your spa session. Start by taking a warm shower or bath to relax your muscles and open up your pores. Then, use a heat pack or warm towels to apply gentle heat to areas of tension, such as the neck, shoulders, and lower back. The warmth will help soothe sore muscles and promote relaxation, enhancing the spa experience.

Prepare Your Space
Designate a quiet, clutter-free area in your home where you can fully relax and unwind. Whether it's a spare room, bedroom, or a cosy corner, ensure the space is clean, comfortable, and free from distractions. Lay out plush towels, robes, and cushions to enhance your comfort. Consider investing in a diffuser or humidifier to maintain optimal air quality and add moisture to the room.

DIY Spa Treatments
No spa experience is complete without indulging in luxurious treatments for your body and mind. Treat yourself to a DIY facial using natural honey, yoghurt, and avocado. Create a homemade body scrub with sugar or sea salt mixed with coconut or olive oil to exfoliate and soften your skin. Remember to pamper your tired feet with a soothing foot soak using Epsom salts and essential oils.

MASSAGE

The Art of Massage
One of the highlights of any spa experience is a relaxing massage to melt away tension and promote relaxation. Enlist the help of a partner or invest in a high-quality massage tool to target areas of tension and tightness. Practice gentle, rhythmic strokes using a massage oil or lotion to glide smoothly over the skin. Focus on places like the neck, shoulders, back, and feet for maximum relaxation. Don't rush the process—take your time to fully unwind and enjoy the sensation of being pampered.

Nourishing Refreshments
The spectrum of relaxation encompasses more than just massages and spa sessions; it encompasses indulgent refreshments that harmonise with the holistic ambience, enhancing the overall experience. Emulate this aspect of the experience by preparing light and refreshing snacks or beverages to enjoy during your home spa session. Opt for hydrating options such as infused water with cucumber and mint or herbal teas known for their calming properties, like chamomile or lemon balm. Alternatively, treat yourself to fresh fruits, nuts, and cheese to indulge your senses while nourishing your body. Savouring these treats amidst your spa experience adds an extra layer of indulgence and ensures you feel refreshed from the inside out.

Digital Detox
In today's hyper-connected world, constant notifications and digital distractions make it easy to become overwhelmed. Take a cue from the serene atmosphere of Banya No.1 - Chiswick by incorporating a digital detox into your home spa experience. Before beginning your relaxation session, power down your electronic devices or place them in a separate room to create a sacred space free from technological intrusions. Disconnecting from screens allows you to fully immerse yourself in the present moment, fostering a more profound sense of relaxation and mindfulness. Use this opportunity to reconnect with yourself and your surroundings, savouring the simple pleasures of solitude and stillness.

Creating a relaxing spa and massage experience at home is easier than you think with some planning and creativity. By setting the right ambience, preparing your space, indulging in DIY spa treatments, and mastering the art of massage, you can enjoy all the benefits of a professional spa right in the comfort of your home. So why not treat yourself to some well-deserved relaxation today? With Banya No.1 in Chiswick as your inspiration, you'll be on your way to a blissful state of mind in no time.

Following these simple tips, you can transform your home into a sanctuary of relaxation and rejuvenation. With a little effort and creativity, you'll be able to enjoy the benefits of a spa and massage experience whenever you need a break from the stresses of daily life. So go ahead, pamper yourself and discover the transformative power of self-care

AD| When winter winds pound your home, you know the time has come to add some cheer and cosiness to spruce up the interiors. This seasonal change reflects in every room and alters the way they usually look. To make your private burrow visually appealing, try out these basic cosmetic improvements, that will keep you warm and snuggled up, till well after Santa has bid goodbye.

cosy winter home

Set the tone with the living room
The living room is the best place to relax on the sofa with a good book in winter, and is normally a place you spend a lot of time in. Since comfort and warmth is the priority, pile up your sofa with cushions and blankets or add a stylish throw. Roll out a carpet to keep your feet warm with a rug that matches the colour scheme of the living room. To avoid a running noise, put on some socks and strut around in total comfort. Depending on the size of your living space, it may be easier and quicker to install carpet tiles. Online stores such as www.carpettilewholesale.co.uk are a good option as they offer a variety of carpet tile styles in a variety of colours, at an affordable price, perfect for any home's colour theme.

Update the bedroom
If you want your bedroom to replicate the vibe of a luxury hotel, give it a quick upgrade by layering it with throws and pillows. Curtains, throws along with velvet pillows, will not only add a touch of luxury to any room but will convert it into a place of cosy refuge till the temperature starts to rise again. Moreover, these simple accents can be easily removed whenever necessary.

Infuse cheery colours
A splash of colour can instantly change stark and cold spaces into a cheerful environment. Add a few bold designed pillows or a bright throw to get rid of the winter blues and glam up the room. If you mix the right warm terracotta and cool grey tones, the shades can last you well up to spring. The best part is that they are hardly a major investment.

Don't forget the kitchen
Winter months take their toll on the kitchen, so it is important to give a little makeover to this place as well to give it a new look. You can add a patterned shade to your kitchen windows, to make it look bright and cheery for many days. You can even stitch your own curtains by purchasing the fabric and colour of your choice and hang it from the rods using clip-style curtain rings.

Install a good curtain
Curtains help insulate a room by preventing the loss of warm air, and in turn beat the cold. Thermal curtains are not only aesthetically pleasing, they also provide the utmost privacy as they are made of thick materials. Select the style that complements your room the most, and determine the correct length to increase the look of your windows.

luxury bath pamper

Transform the bathroom
After returning home exposed to freezing temperatures and hostile winds, it is the time to treat yourself to the luxury of a steaming hot bath. Turn your bathroom into a spa by putting on the stereo, light scented candles, add a few drops of your favourite aroma to the foam and enjoy a steamy downpour in the backdrop of a printed shower curtain. When you finish, wrap yourself in a soft, fluffy towel featuring your favourite print.

Add a touch of greenery
How do you get some freshness into your home with all windows closed, and the outside world is like a part of the North Pole? Exotic plants will purify the air and add a touch of greenery into your interiors and allow you to drift to sleep dreaming of warmer climes. Try adding plants like lavender, eucalyptus or jasmine to infuse a nice aroma into the surroundings.

When it comes to skincare, I love a good pamper routine and the use of face masks definitely has to be my favourite part. I enjoy trying and testing new face masks and seeing how they work for my skin and what results they give for me. I haven't tried many products from Origins, as they can be on the slightly more pricier side to some of my favourite face masks, but they are well worth the money, as they give such great results and the products go a long way!

Origins Overnight Mask
Origins Overnight Mask

"This intense moisture replacement mask deeply quenches compromised moisture reserves and builds a reservoir for tomorrow. Japanese Seaweed repairs skin's barrier to prevent future dehydration and signs of premature ageing."

Over the colder, winter months, I've seen my skin looking quite dull and dry and I've reached out for this little miracle product, the Overnight Drink Up Intensive Mask from Origins to help beat my dry skin and help to add some moisture back. I picked this mask up in the Origins Mini Mask Marvels Gift set around Christmas, and I have been using this mask for around a month now and I think it’s fair to say that this will be a staple in my skincare routine. 

I use this usually once a week, perhaps twice if my skin is in need of a real boost, applying a small penny sized amount of the thick-textured, creamy mask, which smells so fresh and fruity, to my freshly cleansed skin just before bed. It takes around 10 minutes to fully absorb and sink into the skin, and you're ready to sleep and I wake up with plump, healthy and glowy looking skin.

See what I thought of the Origins Clear Improvement Charcoal Mask here!

Have you tried this mask from Origins? What do you think? What is your favourite hydrating mask for dry skin?

I've decided to write about something slightly different from my usual fashion or beauty related posts, and share with you some of my hair care tips. Looking after your hair doesn't have to be a time consuming, expensive and a laborious task, as simple tips and tricks can help minimise weak, damaged hair from everyday wear and tear. 

As I am someone with long, thick hair, it can be difficult to maintain and keep looking its best, but using some of the following tips helps to keep my locks in the best condition. I've also included a few of my own personal recommendations of products that I have tried or using at the moment, that I really love and think help to keep my own hair looking strong and healthy.

1. Protect Hair Against Heat
Protecting your hair from the likes of blow drying and straightening are a must for healthy hair. Without any form of defence, the hair is subject to breakage and splitting, a definite no no! Heat Sprays are essential to keep hair away from damage and burning, and are a must for anyone using any for of heat styling!
I'd Recommend: TRESemmé Heat Defence Styling Spray

2. Use A Good Shampoo and Conditioner Suitable For Your Hair Type
Using a good shampoo and conditioner suitable for your hair is a general must! This tip allows you to focus on your hair and make sure you're buying the right products. Most brands offer a selection of products that cater for all hair types, for example dry, damaged, coloured, long, frizzy etc.
I'd Recommend: Aussie

3. Don't Let Split Ends Spoil Your Hair
Split ends occur from everyday wear and tear, and can have your hair not looking its best. With visits to the hair dressers being pricey, using a split ends treatment can keep them minimised and disguised for that little bit longer. These treatments contain proteins that help to repair and rebuild the hair, helping to maintain luscious locks!
I'd Recommend: Bondi Boost Rapid Repair Serum

4. Don't Tie Hair Up Too Tightly
This tip may come as a bit of a surprise to some of you, but tying hair up too tightly encourages damage and breakage to existing hair, as well as growing hair. This also can lead to weak and damaged hair that no one wants!
I'd recommend: Metal Free Hairbands

5. Have A Good Hairbrush
Having a good hairbrush is an essential part of maintaining beautiful healthy hair. When picking a hair brush, go for one that good at tackling everyday tangles, as tugging on hair causes breakage and damage. Also, brushing from the ends helps keep hair healthy and damage free, as this helps to ease out an tangles.

6. Pamper Your Hair With A Weekly Hair Mask/Treatment
Using a weekly hair mask or treatment helps to give your hair a boost from everyday wear and tear. Most of these contain various proteins that help to repair and reconstruct hair, leaving it looking healthy and shiny, and feeling soft and smooth.
I'd Recommend: Aussie 3 Minute Miracle Reconstructor
                                                          
7. Let Your Hair Dry Naturally When You Can
Letting your hair dry naturally helps maintain and protect your hair, as you are using no heat. After a shower or bath, give your hair a quick pat and squeezing the hair gently between the towel. Avoid rubbing and pulling, as this causes damage and breakage. If you need to use a blow dryer, try letting hair dry naturally for as long as possible, and try to limit the temperature and time spent drying.

8. Get Hair Trimmed Regularly
Whilst you can minimise the sight of split ends, getting your hair trimmed every 6-8 weeks is an essential stage in maintaining healthy hair. You can do this yourself, just getting some sharp scissors and trimming slightly above your split ends, saving yourself a trip to the hairdressers, as well as some money!

9. Washing With Warm/Cool Water
The use of warm water naturally open the pores of your scalp, which is great for removing the oil and any dirt. The use of cool water helps to add shine and to seal in the hairs moisture. Avoid using Hot/Cold water as these can be damaging to your hair. Hot water strips your hair of its natural oils and also cause hair to become frizzy, meanwhile cold water can leave your hair looking quite flat. Whilst cleansing and washing your hair use warm water, not hot. You don’t want to burn your skin and your scalp. When you’re ready to rinse out the conditioner, use cool water for a final rinse.

10. Maintain A Healthy Diet for Healthy Hair
Having a healthy diet will ensure and help to prolong better-looking, better-feeling hair. A diet packed with protein, vitamin C, iron, zinc and omega 3, are all helpful in keeping hair damage free and healthy!

"Indulge and pamper with the Superdrug ‬‭Hair Therapy haircare range, designed ‬‭to cater to all your haircare needs and ‬‭help give your hair back its sparkle!‬"

Superdrug Argan Hair Therapy Overnight Masque

The Superdrug Overnight Treatment ‬‭Masque is a super affordable and the perfect haircare saviour for those with dry or damaged hair. It has been specially formulated ‬‭to deeply condition and smooth your ‬‭hair for a little extra TLC - perfect for winter. Enriched with a unique blend of natural ‬‭Argan and Kukui Nut Oils that are bound to leave your hair in tip-top condition.‬ What more could you ask for?

Superdrug Argan Hair Therapy Overnight Masque

This hair mask has such a silky smooth texture, that it simply glides through the hair upon application. I like to apply this to damp or dry hair before bed, and comb through to make sure all the mid-lengths to ends are fully conditioned. I tend to not put any on the roots of my hair, as this can lead to product build up and making my hair look/feel greasy. If I don't have the time to leave this Argan masque on overnight, I would use it just as a deep conditioner when washing my hair normally, using it after shampooing, as I find this works just as well. 

Once I've washed the product out, dried and styled my hair, I definitely notice a difference and it feels so much softer and silkier. The texture definitely improves and my drier ends are revived. It also adds such a shine to my hair, due to the wonder oils that are packed into this product. If you're looking for a new haircare product that will really help improve the texture and appearance of dull, dry hair, this Superdrug Argan Hair Therapy Overnight Masque should be on your list!

AD - GIFTED | Everyone's beauty regime should include a face mask, at least once per week. And when it comes to skincare, I think this is my favourite part of my routine, as I love being able to have a nice relaxing evening and pamper myself. I love to try out all different types of face mask, with my favourites being clay masks and self heating masks. During the colder winter months, my skin can sometimes appear to look dull and lifeless, I wanted to attempt to put some radiance and glow back into my skin, which is where I was hoping the InstaNatural Dead Sea Mud Facial Mask* would come to my rescue! With the benefits of the product consisting of being a Skin Cleanser, Pore Reducer & Natural Moisturiser, I couldn't wait to use it!

                              
"100% Natural Remedy that Helps Dry & Oily Skin, Acne, Blemishes Overall Complexion - Also Reduces the Appearance of Fine Lines & Wrinkles for Younger, Healthier Looking Skin"

 As to the appearance of this particular product, the mud mask is a dark charcoal grey colour, with a wet, thick gel like consistency, which I actually like. Plus it feels super cooling and non drying on the skin. As for scents, to me this product didn't really have a scent to it, it literally smelt like nothing. As for most face masks, application directions are super easy! To begin, I firstly popped my hair into a ponytail to make sure it was out of my face. After this I washed my face, dried it, and applied a thin layer of the mask while avoiding around the eyes. As the mask began to dry, I watched the change from a dark grey to light, with my skin feeling tighter and firmer as the drying process continued. Kept it on for 10-15 minutes and then wash it off with warm water. How easy is that! Unlike some mud masks, the InstaNatural Dead Sea Mud Facial Mask didn't feel too drying on my skin, and I could see a slight difference after the first use! My skin looked brighter, felt firmer and plumper, and just had an all round greater appearance.

- "Our Dead Sea Mud Mask is made from PURE Dead Sea mud to ensure the highest-quality product. Our mask also includes a nourishing blend of Organic Shea Butter, Organic Jojoba Oil, Organic Aloe Vera, Organic Calendula Oil, and Hickory Bark Extract that provides unsurpassed moisture to soothe dry and irritated skin. This detoxifier and purifier comes from the renowned and sacred Dead Sea, which is known to contain many minerals beneficial to the skin, such as magnesium, sodium and bromine. These elements work to extract excess oil & dirt from the skin and purge blemishes.Using this facial mask once a week also helps to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. Applying the mask will improve your skin so you can achieve a more even skin tone and smoother complexion."

AD - GIFTED | Every year it gets harder and harder to come up with some stocking filler gifts without being repetitive year after year. This year I've managed to find some affordable, different gifts that I think would make great stocking fillers for the women in your life. Whether they are into clothes, cars, beauty or food, they'll be something for everyone. 

Women's Stocking Fillers Christmas

Gift 1 - Depending on budget, perfume is a great present to give for Christmas, and whatever your budget, you'll find the perfect scent for the woman in your life. I'm such a lover of perfume and have found great high street scents, as well as more high-end scents, all of which I absolutely adore. Some of my favourites include Primark PS Love Noir, Ghost Eclipse, YSL Black Opium, and a recent addition to my collection, Giorgio Armani Si.

Carfume Women's Stocking Fillers Christmas

Gift 2 - The perfect gift for any time of year, but especially as a Christmas stocking filler. Carfume air fresheners* are a very unique gift and inspired by fragrances and perfumes, to keep your car smelling 10/10. Featuring some of the most popular women's scents including Lady Million, Black Opium and Alien. The glass bottles with bespoke, carved wooden tops look so elegant & will add a classy touch to your car whilst giving you a long lasting aroma. If you're unsure of which scent to pick, Carfume offer some gift sets where you can purchase 3 fragrances from the website, and it comes in such a stunning, luxurious box so there is no need to wrap. 

Women's Stocking Fillers Christmas Chocolate

Gift 3 - Everyone loves chocolate. Milk, dark, white or even flavoured chocolate, there is just such a huge range of choices. Christmas just wouldn't be the same without a sweet treat in your stocking. Lindt chocolate is my ultimate favourite and these flavours pictured above would be the best chocolate boxes to receive - as well as a selection box!

Women's Stocking Fillers Christmas


Gift 4 - Something for the beauty lovers that I picked up during lockdown that would make a great gift is a lash lift set. I picked mine up from Amazon and it was super affordable. These beauty kits are perfect for those who are into eye makeup, or simply want to go for more of a natural look with gorgeous curled lashes. Lash lift kits usually have around 5-10 uses in them, so if the girl in your life likes getting her lashes done, this kit will save them some coins.

Primark Women's Stocking Fillers Christmas


Gift 5 - It wouldn't be a Christmas stocking if you didn't receive some warm, cosy socks and fluffy pyjamas. These are the ultimate Christmas combo! For me, Primark is the home of cosy socks and pyjamas. They are so soft, so affordable and they come in so many different colours and styles, you could easily walk out with a new set for everyday of the week!

Home Women's Stocking Fillers Christmas

Gift 6 - A great gift to include in a stocking would be Reed Diffusers. I think they make such a great gift for anyone. There's so many different fragrances that you can choose from, and you can make your gift more personal for the recipient by choosing a scent that you know they will love. I found these diffusers in Superdrug, and they would make such a lovely, affordable stocking filler.

Women's Stocking Fillers Christmas Face Masks

Gift 7 - Face masks. Everyone loves a good face mask, especially during the winter time. These are the perfect stocking filler addition for any beauty lover. Face masks are a real treat for your skin, even during the colder month of the year, and the perfect addition to any pamper evening. I picked up these affordable face masks from Primark and Boots, both had such a variety to choose from, including sheet masks, peel off masks and clay masks.

If you need some more inspo, I previously published a women's gift guide in 2019, with some great ideas that could be suitable if you're still stuck. Check out my Men's Stocking Fillers guide if you need inspiration for any male in your life.

What stocking fillers will you be getting the women in your life this Christmas?

    AD - GIFTED | During the warmer months of the year, my skincare routine changes ever so slightly, incorporating more lightweight and hydrating products, to help keep my skin moisturised, radiant and glowy. However, I always use hydrating products to keep my skin healthy and happy. Hydrating products are all about increasing the water content in your skin cells themselves. I tend to use hydrating creams, serums and masks to help boost my skins appearance. Hydrated skin is smooth, radiant and has an even tone. To achieve this, you need to quench your skin’s thirst from time to time.

As well as using hydrating products, there are a number of tips you can start adding into your daily routine to help with hydration, that require minimum effort and you can begin using straight away.

- Drink An Adequate Amount Of Water
- Avoid Very Hot And Long Showers
- Pamper Yourself With Face Masks/Sheets
-Eat Foods Rich In Water

The Ordinary Hydrating Hyaluronic Acid


One skincare product that I've really been enjoying using is the The Ordinary Hyaluronic Acid 2% + B5. I generally use this at night time as a more hydration serum, and it sinks into my skin almost immediately after application. I don't find it too sticky at all and my skin feels very soft and plump afterwards. When I wake up in the morning, my skin looking brighter, more radiant and fresh.

Lavera Hydrating Gel Cream

A new addition to my current skincare routine has been the Lavera Hydro Sensation Gel Cream*. This hydrating gel moisturiser has been the perfect product to use in the morning during the warmer months as it's super lightweight, quickly absorbs into the skin and leaves your skin looking radiant and glowy. This moisturiser features natural, organic ingredients including Hyaluronic Acid and Algae to help give a light, fresh and hydrating feel to your skin, whilst retaining all the moisture that is needed when your skin is feeling slightly dry.

Lavera Skincare Hydrating Serum

Alongside the Lavera Gel Cream, I've also been adding the Lavera Hydro Sensation Serum* to my morning skincare routine after washing/cleansing my skin. The lightweight serum uses hydrating ingredients of Hyaluronic Acid and Organic Algae which go deeper into the skin to give long lasting moisture to smooth wrinkles and plump the skin. Perfect to use under moisturisers for that extra added hydration when your skin really needs it.

Simple Skincare Hydrating Booster

A product I've mentioned previously is the Simple Hydration Booster. It's been a favourite of mine for a while and is my go-to product when areas of my skin are feeling drier than usual. I mentioned this product back in my Winter Skin Favourites and have been using it ever since. This has been such a great product to use before my moisturiser, as I am able to target the drier areas of my skin, helping me get that skin glow and leaving it looking and feeling healthy. 

The Simple Hydrating Booster facial moisturiser has been designed to reverse 5 signs of dehydration: dryness, roughness, feelings of tightness, dullness and dehydration lines.

Revolution Skincare Hydrating Cream

Lastly, one of my absolute favourites has been the Revolution Hyaluronic Acid Overnight Mask. I've only recently started to use Revolution skincare and so far I've been super impressed! The perfect addition to your routine to hydrate your skin overnight with this Hyaluronic Acid infused treatment. Formulated with Sweet Almond Oil to encourage smooth and soft skin and Vitamin E to moisturise. I generally use this mask 1-2 times per week, and apply a thin layer to freshly cleansed skin before I go to sleep.

What are your current skincare favourites?

Every time I wander into Boots to pick up a replacement shampoo or hair mask, I always see the bright blue packaging of Maui Haircare sat on the shelf, calling my name. But at £8.99 a product, I do find that to be a little expensive when I can purchase my regular shampoos, conditioners and treatments for around the same price combined. However, I would one day love to give them a try, I've heard so much good things about them, over countless reviews. If i was to pick them up, I would definitely be drawn towards the range specific to dry hair, Shampoo, Conditioner and Oil Mist all infused with Coconut Milk, encouraging nourishment and providing moisture to hair, which is exactly what I look for in haircare products, as cold weather and using heat on hair is a nightmare whilst trying to keep healthy, strong hair.

The Ordinary took over the skincare game in 2017, and I am yet to try anything of theirs as of yet. I've seen many a review and nearly every single product hyped over, so this prompted me to add something from their range to my wishlist. Hyaluronic Acid 2% + B5 is the product at the top of my shopping list from The Ordinary. Hyaluronic Acid can attract up to 1,000 times its weight in water, and after these harsh, cold winter months, my skin will definitely need some moisture and hydration. With a price tag of just £5.99, this is something I am 100% going to be trying out, and if it makes a difference in my skincare routine, it would be something I would repurchase as it is so affordable!

 Something on the more higher end of skincare is the much loved Kiehls Creamy Eye Treatment with Avocado. I've heard so many good things about this product that it is something I would love to try for myself. If I'm being honest, I always forget about using eye creams and serums, but I do know that the eye area is one of the first places prone to ageing and changes in the skin. gently moisturise the delicate eye area. This does sound like a great skincare essential that would gently moisturise the delicate eye area, but at £22.50 for 14ml a pot, is it worth the hype?

Another skincare product to add to my online basket, the Soap & Glory Speed Plump Miracle Moisture Mask. I love face masks, they are the perfect pamper session essential, and the best way to relax and unwind after a long, tiring day. I really like some of the Soap and Glory skincare, especially the Speed Plump Overnight Miracle Moisture Mousse, so I am hoping the Moisture Mask could be another favourite added to my collection. 

Newly released are the L'Oréal Paris Smooth Sugar Face and Lip Scrubs, coming in 3 different variations; Kiwi - to clear, Grapeseed to glow, and Cocoa - to nourish. I've used a variety of L'Oréal Paris skincare before, my favourites being the Pure Clay masks and washes, to which have become staples in my skincare routine. The scrubs look like a great addition to my collection, in order to reduce texture and create softer, smoother skin, as well as to hydrate and brighten, which is definitely what my skins need after the winter months. RRP £9.99
