Day 24 of Blogtober and today the topic is Autumn Winter Skincare. No matter what time of the year, we should all be looking after our skin.
With so many skincare products on the market, it is all about finding the right one for you. I do however, like to change the products I use, so my skin does not get used to it.

Facial Wash
I have recently been using a lovely cleansing bar, as opposed to a facial wash. It is leaving my skin feeling clean and fresh, and also reducing plastic waste.
In the mornings, I will wash my face and apply a day cream, if at home. Or a moisturiser/foundation with SP factor if going out.
In the evenings, I wash my face and will apply a face serum and alternate this with a night cream.
I do also love face masks, and recently the sheet face masks you can get. I have a lovely mix that all do slightly different things.
Looking After Our Skin
I am a nightmare for this, I can not stick to one product and love to alternate with my body wash in the shower. Recently again, I have got into the beauty bars and find they leave my skin feeling clean and fresh.
Although with the colder weather, we wear more clothing and our skin is not as exposed. I do still remove my unwanted body hair, and have looked at laser hair removal as feel this would be the perfect time to do it.
I also have a huge love of body butters and use these every evening especially my arms and legs.
Foot Peel
I am obsessed by these, my feet are one area of my body that I hate. A few years ago I found a foot peel. You put on little socks like the image, leave on for the required time and then rinse off. After about 7 days, the skin on your feet starts to peel.
I know it sounds gross and my husband and C hate it, but I love sitting there and picking the skin and feeling the softer skin underneath.
Do you have any skincare tips for Autumn?
It’s hard to resist pulling dry skin off feet when nobody’s looking!
I’ve seen sock and glove treatments similar to the above photo to wear overnight but have never invested in them. I guess t’s an age thing but I find my skin gets more dry, more itchy and more sensitive with each passing year so I am having to move away from high street/supermarket products and, instead, buy organic, natural and expensive brands.
I have upped my skin care range and do look after my skin a lot more than when I was younger
I really need to start looking after my feet. But sInce I’ve won that prize from you, I have been applying SPF cream on my face every day. Need to find some time to do a face mask
It does seem hard to find the time for a bit of tlc and once we do it seems a lott easier
We really need to look after our skin. I know at this time of year mine starts to dry out so I always use a lot of moisturiser. Those foot peels are pretty gross but they are also amazing. x
My skin starts to dry out as well as the weather gets colder and the heating is being used more. The foot peels are pretty gross but I do love picking things and great for me
I love body butters too. My advice is moisturise morning and night and I do like a lip balm
I do love my body butters, I have also started usinng lip scrubs as well and love them
I look after my face – tend to neglect my feet – better try
My feet are always neglected, but the feet peel and masks are great
I am super low maintenance when it comes to beauty treatments and skin care but the one thing I spend a bit of money on is pedicures especially now in summer when I wear mostly open shoes.
I don’t have any beauty treatments, I am lucky I have strong nails so do my own manicures. I can not stand anyone touching my feet so would never have a pedicure
I use a really good toner which really helps get rid of the dullness of my winter skin. It’s only a cheap Superdrug one but it’s the best one I have tried.
You really do not have to spend a fortune on skincare and you see quite a bit that cheaper products do just as well
Great post. Me and my girls or me and my mum and sisters sit and do the foot in a bag treatments together sometimes lol xxx
My daughter laughs at me and refuses to do one with me
I definitely think you can not moisturize your skin enough ar any age. I enjoy products that give that dewey feeling to my skin. I like skin products that have charcoal in them. They work well for my skin.
I totally agree, I love face serums as they do make a huge difference
I find my lips always get so dry in winter I always carry lipbalm
Have you tried a lip scrub, I started using them and they really do make the lips feel great
I use a face maks once a week and face creams day and night during winter
I need to do another face mask not done one in a few weeks, I use day and night creams all year
Great tips! I definitely find that my skin gets dry as the weather gets colder. Also love a good foot peel!
I love a foot peel as well, I have a foot mask I got the other day to try as well
I have never tried a foot peel before, but I think my feet would definitely benefit from it!
They are great they take about a week to start peeling and it is pretty gross but your feet feel amazing after
I have been trying to take care of my skin more! I love the foot peels too!
I need to get another foot peel in
