Winter skincare is one of my favourites for products because you need everything to be richer and more luxurious and I love me a good skincare routine! I’ve got a few products upping my winter glow at the moment – a couple I’ve started introducing and some I’ve been using for a few months now and have become a firm fave.
Up first are some bits from Polaar, a skincare brand that’s new to me and I was really intrigued to give them a go when the brand got in touch. Their products are all dermatologically-tested, free from mineral oil, phenoxyethanol, parabens and alcohol as well as being cruelty-free and vegan. The first product is the lovely scented Polaar Northern Light Smoothing Cream 50ml* which is a radiance boosting using rare, pure and natural ingredients harvested in the wild, vast tundras of the Arctic. The Northern Light collection is all about anti-pollution skincare treatments enriched with Siberian Olive (a super-regenerative ingredient brimming with 108 bio-active elements and containing 30 times more Vitamin C than an orange). This replenishing moisturiser apparently works to boost luminosity, even skin tone, tighten pores and eliminate excess sebum.
First of all it smells lovely and sinks in so well to the skin so I’ll report back on the luminosity part!

The next product is the Polaar Icymagic Instant Eye Contour Multi Energiser 10ml* which is meant to boost tired eyes as it’s an invigorating roll-on eye treatment that instantly hydrates and lifts dull, puffy skin. I’ve found that it’s not rolling too well yet so I think I need to get it working a bit more as it seems to drag slightly on the skin unlike some other rollerballs I’ve used. Let me know if you’ve tried this product before!

Next up some old favourites, I’ve been loving the Norvell Spray Tan in a Can and Mousse from their Ultra Vivid Collection for months now as it gives such good tan. Check out my Beauty stories on Instagram to see some of the colour payoff! Their newest product is the 2-in-1 self-tanning mist and it’s a winter beauty survival necessity! I love to be tanned and it also moisturisers and hydrates skin with added anti-ageing benefits. It targets dry skin with fruity extracts such as cranberry extract to moisturise, watermelon to reduce redness and coconut to protect the skin.
With the Mousse, I’ll leave this on for 3 hours and then wash it off and wake up glowing and then I’ll use the Spray Tan in a Can to top up throughout the week! What’s your favourite tan? Let me know how you keep you glow during the winter in the comments.
