At-Home Beauty Buys For Cosy Nights In
Biting cold outside, heating inside: winter can wreak havoc on our skin and hair. Combat the effects with these cosy beauty treatments to indulge in through the long nights ahead.
As the nights draw in and the heating clicks on, our skin and hair often pay the price — dry, tight and in need of a little TLC. Winter is the perfect time to slow down and indulge in some at-home pampering, turning cosy evenings into mini spa rituals. From nourishing hair masks to ultra-hydrating body butters and soothing bath soaks, these 12 beauty buys are designed to restore moisture, radiance and calm. So light a candle, slip into your comfiest robe, and let these restorative treatments bring back your glow — no salon appointment required.
Hair Masks
Combat the drying effects of central heating and the wind-swept weather with a nourishing, smoothing hair mask. Comb it through and let it work its softening, hydrating magic while you draw a bath, for double the R&R effects
Face Masks
It’s rare to find time to fit a face mask into your daily beauty routine, but cosy winter evenings in are the perfect moment for a deeply restorative treatment to hydrate chapped, dull skin and bring back some brightness.
Feet Treatments
If your feet haven’t recovered from a summer in sandals, a good foot mask and cashmere sock combo will soon restore them to baby softness. Winter is also a good time to give feet a break from pedicures and leave nails to breathe. Add a nourishing nail oil to your routine instead to help strengthen and hydrate.
Body Butters
Even if your body is cocooned in winter knits, now is the time to up the texture of your body lotion to a rich butter for maximum skin benefits as the temperature drops and central heating zaps moisture from our skin. Look for replenishing plant oils and beautiful scents that transport you to sunnier climes, even on the greyest of days.
Bath Soaks
Winter is for bathing, but don’t just take a perfunctory soak; turn your tub time into a relaxing ritual that won’t just cleanse you, but ease muscles, aid sleep and nourish the skin too.
