This winter has totally wrecked my skin. From air con to freezing temperatures and some horrendous cystic acne plus all the sugar spots that Christmas bring us! These are my products that have kept me (almost) sane. I’ve also recently picked up the Sanctuary Therapist Secret Facial Oil in Boots and have used it for 2 nights and have seen an improvement already.
Winter OOTD With New Look Knitwear
Today is all about winter knitwear. I’ve always been more of a fan of the colder months than the summer in terms of dressing because I just love to layer up and I can’t live without jeans for longer than about 2 days. Plus, knitwear is one of my favourite things to have in my wardrobe! So, this New Look Grey Longline Coatigan* is the perfect new addition to my winter wardrobe.

Zoya Ignite Collection 'Yuna'
The newest addition to my ever-growing nail varnish stash is Yuna from Zoya’s new A/W Ignite Collection. It’s a beautiful warm grey with subtle copper and gold glitter running through it. It also has a slight green tinge to it in some lights. I’ve applied it with a gel-like Kiss top coat on top and then a slick of Seche Vite to give it a tiny bit more staying power.
