To many dismays, but my absolute joy, winter is coming in fast which means cosy nights in, Christmas and ditching summery salads for comfort foods (roast every Sunday… yes please)! It also means we need to switch up our skincare as well as our body care by opting to heavier formulas and reintroducing hand creams into our everyday body care routines to ensure our skin remains hydrated as well as strengthening the skin barrier during the colder months.
Please see below for our favourite body care heroes from sustainable beauty and wellbeing brand Rituals – that are a must for this Autumn and Winter. It would be great to hear whether you will be working on any body care pieces this side of the year where the below can be considered for inclusion – once popped to the test!
