When you’ve made the effort to get up early to spend precious minutes in front of the mirror carefully applying makeup to ensure that you look good and ready to face the day ahead, the last thing you’ll want is for it to slide off in a short space of time.

The thing about cosmetics is that it’s not all about how much you spend on them. In fact, you could buy the most expensive cosmetics in the world and still feel dissatisfied with them if you’re not applying them properly.

One thing which can have an impact on the longevity of your cosmetics is the moisturiser which is underneath them. If the moisturiser which you’re using isn’t sinking into the skin properly and is leaving an oily residue behind, cosmetics could disappear quick-time.

Similarly, if your skin is prone to excessive oil production and you’re not using a moisturiser which helps to keep things under control, your makeup might not last the duration.

With Dermalogica Moisturisers though, you can get the most from your makeup, and they effortlessly sink into skin and there are many great moisturisers for every skin type.

Some of those with very dry skin make the mistake of only using an intense moisturiser when the condition is at its worst, although this really isn’t the right way to go about things.

Looking after skin which is prone to dryness doesn’t simply involve reaching for an intense moisturiser on a really irregular basis, and as we all know that prevention is better than cure, those with dry skin need to ensure that it’s treated to adequate hydration on a daily basis.

Brilliant advancements in skin have led to the introduction of some superb intensely hydrating moisturisers which have been designed to be used on a regular basis without leaving the skin greasy.

One of the best moisturisers for keeping skin hydrated on a regular basis is Dermalogica Intensive Moisture Balance. Dermalogica Intensive Moisture Balance is a super rich moisturiser which helps to restore really dry skin back to its best and which also helps to prevent moisture loss in order to keep future extreme dryness at arms length.

After using Dermalogica Intensive Moisture Balance, skin will be left soft, supple and looking and feeling amazing.

Dermalogica UltraCalming™ Cleanser is a soothing, pH-balanced gel/cream that glides easily over face and eyes to cleanse without stripping skin’s protective barrier. Helps calm and cool the redness, heat and discomfort of rosacea, sensitised or highly reactive skin. Easily rinses away or wipes off, making it ideal for skin so sensitised it cannot tolerate water.

One of the worst things about winter weather is that it can have a tendency to creep up without warning. One minute you’re happily enjoying a nice mild autumn, and the next you’re shivering in all of your winter woollies.

Since you can never predict when temperatures will take a turn for the worse, it always pays to be prepared well in advance- and not only with your winter clothing but also with your winter skin care products.

It’s just as important to put the time and effort into looking after your skin in the winter as it is in the summer, although your skin will obviously have different needs.

It’s really important to try and keep that red-raw chapped look which can all too easily strike during the winter at bay, and you should be able to find moisturisers and barrier products which can help here.

As well as the skin on your face, make sure that you protect your lips and hands from the effects of winter weather too.

Dermalogica has everything you need to ensure that winter weather doesn’t get a look in, so make those all-important new skin care investments today.

The summer may be over, and the weather may be starting to get seriously dull and dreary, but this doesn’t mean that the look and condition of your skin has to deteriorate too.

In the summer, when the sun is shining and when you’re sunning yourself on your relaxing foreign holiday, it’s really easy to get a gorgeous glow, and it’s a lot easier to prevent skin from looking dull.

As winter starts to approach though, things change, so unless you make an effort with keeping dullness at arm’s length, your complexion could start to look less than its best.

As well as cleansing, toning and moisturising, exfoliation should be a key part of your skin care regime- it’s really important in getting- and keeping- your skin glowing.

A good exfoliant will gently polish your skin and gently loosen and eliminate any dead skin cells- with a good product won’t require any vigorous scrubbing whatsoever and won’t leave your skin looking red or feeling sore.

Dermalogica has a brilliant range of exfoliants to cater to the needs of different skin types, and they all have the ability to uncover bright and beautiful skin.
