Balance Me Stellar Face Balm



Eeeek, bad blogger award. All of my university deadlines are here and I'm attempting to start revision for my exams in April, so I've not really had time to do anything else. Howeverrrr, I've caught up on quite a lot of my work and one of my deadlines has been extended to the end of the month, so I've have some free time! 

I always end up carrying loads of products around in my bag. I have lip products, face products, hair products and make-up! It's especially annoying when I'm trying to find something in my bag and everything just gets lost in the rubble. Enter Stellar Face Balm. Although it's called 'face balm', thats only a small portion of what this product can be used for. The Balance Me website states that you can use this product on your lips, cuticles, heels, elbows, hair and face! Amazing! 

This balm worked really well on my dry skin. I applied it to certain areas on my skin before bed, and in the morning I could already tell a difference. I've been using this for a week now and my skin feels so much more hydrated. I also love that this product can be used to tame fly-away hair, a massive problem with how thick mine is. 

Have you guys ever tried the Stellar Face Balm? Like all of Balance Me's products, it's natural and organic and smells lovely! Also, you can all now follow my blog with Bloglovin! :)

Clinique 3 Step Skin Care Routine



Clinique 3 Step Skin Care Routine - £35.00 (Duty Free)

My skin completely freaks out in winter. My face gets really irritated and my lips dry out :( I normally just use extra moisturiser but when I saw the Clinique 3 Step Skin Care Routine I decided to give it a go. 

Clinique claims that by using all three products twice a day (morning and evening), you will see results of clear, radiant and glowing skin. You start by cleansing. This is one of the best facial washes that I have ever used. It lathers up easily and leaves skin feeling soft and fresh. Step two is to exfoliate which is done with the Clinique Clarifying Lotion. I apply this with a cotton pad and it really helps to wipe away any last traces of dry skin. This product is slightly too strong for me though. The smell is overpowering and makes my eyes water, but I love how it makes my skin feel so I power through! Step three is to moisturise. After a week of using these products twice a day, my skin was feeling ultra soft and less irritated by the cold weather. I would definitely recommend!

I'm using the combination skin version of these three products, although they are available for all different skin types. What do you guys do to keep dry skin at bay during winter?
