What is the difference between a moisturiser, a night cream and a serum?

I moisturiser is basically designed to keep your skin hydrated during the day-time and help protect against pollution etc.  A night cream helps the skin to repair at night and supports the natural regeneration function that occurs at night while you sleep.  A serum is a ‘work-horse’ and gives an extra boost to dull, tired…

My complexion is dull, will a moisturiser help?

Yes, it will definitely help.  You may want to try using a serum too – serums really give your skin a boost. If your skin is dull it is probably lacking nutrients and hydration.  Moisturise from the inside too, by drinking plenty of liquids, and get plenty of quality sleep.

My skin has changed, should I change my moisturiser too?

Probably, yes.  If your skin has suddenly become dry, or greasy or not balanced as you would like.  When choosing a new product, select one that is free from harmful chemicals and find a good one that suits your particular skin type and age.  Always do a patch test first to make sure it suits…

I use Make-Up, can I still use a moisturiser first?

Yes, many people moisturise before applying make-up.  It is probably best to use a light moisturiser and let it absorb into the skin for a couple of minutes before applying the make-up. Try to use a natural mineral make-up and a natural moisturiser too that are free from harmful chemicals.

What is a good body moisturiser?

There are many good body moisturisers, but make sure you choose one that is paraben free and paraffin free.  Better still; choose a 100% natural one or an organic one.  If you want a moisturiser with a bit of a ‘barrier’ to it, for example if you are going out cycling all day, then a…
