This impromptu little ski trip was great for two reasons. Firstly, it allowed me to take advantage of the incredible snow that has been constantly falling in the Alps. Secondly, it reminded me how important it is to pack the right products! As I found myself sitting on a very exposed chairlift, being battered by wind and snow, i tried to remember exactly what products I had brought with me to help give my skin a little love after this aggressive natural exfoliation I was experiencing!
The cold weather can really dry out your skin, as can the wind burn you will inevitably experience. Using a high factor sunscreen is always advisable when skiing, no matter what the weather. You'll be suprised how efficient the snow can be in reflecting the sun onto your face. I use Rodial Glamotox, which is a lovely, creamy moisturiser with SPF18. I also made sure I had my Dr Lipp within easy reach at all times as chapped lips are never a good look. Prevention is the key!
In the evenings, I soothed my glowing skin with the Korres Yoghurt Cream. I love this moisturiser as it is very soothing and very hydrating.
I also massaged my feet with Yu-Be before going to bed so they felt soft, refreshed and ready for another day's skiing!
