Garnier Mythic Oilve Ultimate Blends Body Nourishing Lotion

I get through a LOT of body moisturisers thanks to my super dry skin.

I find it a bit weird as my complexion is oily-combination but the skin on my body and my legs in particular is super dry.

It takes a really good moisturiser to make sure that my skin isn’t left feeling tight, itchy and flaky after bathing and I’m very pleased to say I’ve found a fab new one!

Garnier Ultimate Blends Body Nourishing Lotion for dry skin,Mythic Oilve is brilliant.

This thick, creamy, non greasy lotion is enriched with a blend of virgin olive oil, renowned for its intensively nourishing and soothing properties. 

The Mythic Oil variation is designed for dry skin so the lotion is thicker than I would expect from an ordinary lotion but despite its creaminess it sinks into your skin instantly leaving it feeling soft, smooth and nourished.

It is completely non greasy, doesn’t leave your skin feeling clogged or heavy and it leaves a beautiful, light fragrant scent.

It absolutely did the job on my sensitive, scaly skin and for just £4.49 for a 250ml bottle it’s a fabulous price too.

Garnier Mythic Oilve Ultimate Blends Body Nourishing Lotion is available now.

Kiehl's Ultra Facial Deep Moisture Balm

Winter, cold weather, wind and central heating can play total havoc with your skin and I for one find myself battling to maintain a healthy and fresh looking complexion during these months.

While I have oily-combination skin, sometimes my skin needs a little more TLC than the super light moisturisers I give it and Kiehl’s Ultra Facial Deep Moisture Balm is the product I’ve been using to satisfy my skins moisture cravings.

I will just say quickly that if your skin is REALLY oily or prone to breakouts this is not the cream for you, indeed it’s not even really a cream, it is a thick and super rich balm which is likely to be too heavy for your skin.

If you suffer with dry or very dry skin though this balm is about to become your best mate.

This thick, rich and creamy balm has been formulate with the iconic Ultra Facial range ingredients Antarticine and Squalane which help to retain moisture as well as Edelweiss Flower Extract which helps to strengthen the skins barrier function to lock in hydration.

The balm itself is pretty much scent free, melts onto your skin (and you do only need a teenie tiny amount!) and leaves it feeling super soft and hydrated without feeling greasy, no mean feat in my opinion.

Now, I only use this once a week at night because any more often would be too much for my skin but if you have dry, sore skin then this balm will be a fabulous hydrating and softening treat for your face.

Kiehl’s Ultra Facial Deep Moisture Balm is available now and costs £24 for 50ml.
