But seriously, it’s getting chilly and the cold weather does no favours for our skin. So now’s the perfect time to reassess your skincare routine. Don’t feel like you have to change everything. Even just adjusting it slightly can make a huge difference.

As is using a flannel and splashing your face with cold water once your face is clean. I swear by that tip. I always tend to go for an oil-based cleanser, Firstly, I find it removes make-up quicker, particularly hard-working mascaras. And I love the way it makes mine and my clients’ skin feel. Here are my faves… [ ![](https://media.sheerluxe.com/zno9GHt9xbc4XZlUidi3mtHmedg=/800x0/smart/https%3A%2F%2Fsheerluxe.com%2Fsites%2Fsheerluxe%2Ffiles%2Farticles%2F2019%2F10%2Fpixi-double-cleanse-x-caroline-hirons.jpg) ](https://click.linksynergy.com/deeplink?id=etT1jgERWYw&mid=39654&murl=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.harveynichols.com%2Fbrand%2Fpixi-by-petra%2F622379-caroline-hirons-double-cleanse%2Fp2844113%2F) ### **Pixi X Caroline Hirons Double Cleanse, £24** This product was created by people in the know: Pixi, an iconic, well-trusted beauty brand; and Caroline Hirons, the one and only Lady H, skincare guru to us all.

It has four hyaluronic acids in it, each reaching a different level of the skin. It adds an intense hydration that really makes a difference to your skin. Don’t be put off by its watery consistency – this beauty is magic. Use after cleansing, before moisturising. Available at [Amazon.co.uk](https://www.amazon.co.uk/OFFICIAL-TOKYO-SUPER-HYDRATOR-LOTION/dp/B07PBX3JL9) ## **FACE MASKS** How I love a lazy Sunday when it’s raining outside, the fire’s on and I’ve got a glass of fizz and a hydrating face mask. I haven’t even mentioned the roast dinner in the oven. More seriously, a Sunday face mask can revitalise your skin ready for the week ahead.

It’s infused with 25ml of serum, which is a huge amount. To put that into perspective, most foundations are 30ml. Impressive.

It really is an eco-friendly, beauty haven. With reusable everything, it is at the forefront of sustainability. All of its masks are great, but I particularly like the Japanese matcha tea pollution-clearing mask. It literally sucks the daily commute out of your skin.

It’s simple, pretty much free, and effective. I usually fill a bowl with boiling water (obviously be super careful and use a heat-proof bowl) then add a couple of drops of essential oils, lean over the bowl with a towel over my head, and let the steam work its magic. I try and do this once a week to deep cleanse. I usually use a cleanser immediately after to get rid of the dirt. This always leaves my skin feeling incredible. Wrap up warm and look after your skin – it’s important. Love & Lipstick, Lisa xx *Lisa Potter-Dixon is a presenter, make-up artist and SheerLuxe beauty contributor.
