What is Skincare in Makeup?
The era of skincare infused makeup is here and it’s a game-changer, enhancing not only the appearance but also the health of your skin.
Natural Moisturiser for Every Skin
The onslaught of windy days, icy temperatures combined with drying indoor heating and the lack of humidity in the air, winter can leave skin dry, itchy and lacklustre. Winter skin can feel tight, dry and for those of us that suffer a little redness and eczema – in short winter can be a skin nightmare. Luckily, we have the very best all-natural moisturisers that will help you restore and transform winter skin.
Before we find your perfect moisturiser, let’s start with a few simple skincare tips that support a healthy winter glow:
Winter is a great time to make the switch to an all-natural cleansing balm or oil that won’t strip the skin but works effectively to clear the pores of makeup and excess sebum. Over cleansing leads to inflammation, including breakouts, acne, and redness. A gentle cleanser leaves the skin clear and calm. A cleansing balm rich in nourishing butters and oils like that of the AMLY Deep Reveal Cleansing Balm is well suited to all skin types, lifting daily grime while protecting the barrier. It has the most divine scent and doubles as a replenishing mask that can be used twice a week. It’s also the ideal first cleanse in your double cleansing regime.

Twice a week after removing the makeup and grime of the day, add a gentle exfoliation to your routine. Pick an all-natural exfoliant brimming with fruit acids and gentle botanicals that work to slough dead and dry skin cells without disrupting the balance of the skin. Laurel Honey Berry Exfoliant Mask is formulated with a honey base that hydrates and firms the cells while gently encouraging cell turnover. Brimming with a cocktail of antioxidant rich berries that work to protect and strengthen the skin. The results speak for themselves and so it’s no wonder this mask has reached cult status in the Indie Beauty world.
Now that your skin is cleansed and exfoliated, your next serum treatment and moisturiser will work to its optimum. So let’s find you your perfect moisturiser.
Even the most normal and healthy functioning skin barrier needs a little extra TLC in Winter. A good quality moisturiser that is rich in ceramides, botanical oils and butters is essential to maintaining normal skin function. A great multi-taking moisturiser with added anti-ageing actives is the AMALA Youth- Renewing Powerhouse Moisturiser . Formulated with a glorious hydrating base and turbo charged with Moth Bean, a natural retinol alternative to re-density the skin without irritation and GABA Amino acids that work to improve the look of fine lines and wrinkles throughout the drying cooler months. So effective and pure you only need to use the smallest amount everyday. Who said you couldn’t have it all in one moisturiser?

Dehydrated skin is a skin condition, unlike dry skin which is a skin type. Dehydrated skin can be normal, combination and oily but lacks moisture and can appear a little dull and lacklustre. Harsh and extreme environmental elements are major factors causing dehydrated skin. Flower and Spice Soothe and Repair Daily Moisturiser, formulated with Prickly Pear, Rose and Aloe Vera is well suited to skin craving a boost of hydration and little extra care. The lightweight velvety texture is ideal for oily and breakout skin types.
This divine smelling cream is readily absorbed and brimming with antioxidants and nourishing lipids to reclaim the skin’s natural radiance.
Did you know that oily skin can too be in deep need of moisture, and that feeding the skin barrier with an all-natural moisturiser can actually help the excess sebum production and improve the texture of the skin?
If oily skin is your concern, take heed and avoid harsh cleansing and invest in a lightweight yet potent moisturiser. The antibacterial and antimicrobial actives in VENN’s Vitamin B Activated All-in-one Concentrate means you can stress less about acne flare ups. This light-weight serum and moisturiser cream is formulated with a proprietary complex of Vitamin K the main anti-ageing bioactive component of Panax Ginseng. High in antioxidants and high-performance peptides this light fluid texture is designed to deeply hydrate without adding weight to the feel of the skin.

Dry skin craves moisture that is essential for the skin barrier to perform well. It’s best to keep it simple, not overloading the skin with unnecessary products. We recommend avoiding petroleum or mineral oil based heavy occlusive creams. All-natural moisturisers or balms that are formulated with lipid rich butters and plant extracts benefit the skin by providing the protective barrier needed to seal moisture in the skin. The antioxidant rich actives work to strengthen and restore the skin for healthy and radiant skin.
Bloomeffects Royal Tulip Moisturising Nectar is specially formulated for dry and depleted skin. It is the only skincare in the world that is formulated with a proprietary Dutch Tulip Complex, a rich source of antioxidants, amino acids and moisturising lipids that work to restore essential skin moisture. This is a decadent balm with a Hyaluronic Acid boost that leaves skin plump and super soft to the touch.

Winter plays havoc on sensitive skin, exacerbating skin conditions like psoriasis and eczema. Les Huliette mon huliette Cream is a universal emulsion that is fragrant free and brimming with essential fatty acid acids and nourishing lipids that love to nurture and restore our skin barrier. It’s surprisingly light weight for such a heavy hitting hydrator and the minimal ingredient and essential oil free formulation is perfect for pregnancy and younger skin.

I don’t know about you, but I certainly bring my sleep time skincare game up a notch in Winter. Not only do I get my beauty sleep in but I really treat myself with long baths and replenishing face masks. We recommend switching out clay-based masks that are ideal for the warmer summer months to a nourishing butter, yogurt or honey-based mask for replenishing and protecting winter skin.
An overnight mask is the ultimate bedtime regime for waking with calm and velvet skin. My winter skin loves the nourishing overnight mask La Fervance Eclat Extraordinaire. It can be used as your night moisturiser during the winter months or two to three times weekly as a decadent treat over your night serum. It’s hard to explain the incredible results seen after just two weeks of use. This rich gold laden balm infuses Australian Wild Natives including Kakadu Plum and skin healing Bee Propolis to transform even the most compromised barrier. It’s clinically proven and luxurious anti-ageing skincare for firm, calm and plump skin upon waking.
