B LIST:<br />

Zingy Beauty<br />

Got the winter blues? Don’t fret, there’s<br />

a whole host of beauty products out there<br />

designed to boost your mood and blow<br />

away the cobwebs<br />

Time to get scrubbing! Just because no one can see those grey<br />

flaky limbs, you still have to put up with them! The best time is in the<br />

shower, in the morning. This will get your blood circulating, warm you up<br />

and wake you up! Molton Brown’s Eucalyptus Stimulating Body Polisher<br />

is a nice treat, and is guaranteed to put a spring back into your step.<br />

For a midday boost, lighten the air at your desk and feed those<br />

dry hands with a hand cream such as L’Occitane Shea Zesty Lime Hand<br />

Cream; otherwise, ones with mint are usually pretty fresh. Not only will<br />

your hands thank you, but the zingy scent will awaken your senses and<br />

give you a much-needed lift during the monotony of desk life!<br />

Next on the list, bath time! Get into the spirit with a scented<br />

candle to set the mood. Try a Neom’s Happiness Candle. They smell<br />

divine and have been expertly blended to help you lift your mood and<br />

help you enjoy a positive, more uplifted state of mind.<br />

If baths aren’t your thing, you obviously haven’t tried a<br />

soothing milky bath float like the one from The Body Shop. All you need<br />

now is someone to run your bath, a nice cuppa and to indulge your skin<br />

with a good moisturiser and anti-ageing eye cream to be looking, and<br />

feeling, your best.<br />

The final perk-me-up for winter- a new purchase<br />

of course! Brighten up that gloomy face with a flash of lip colour in<br />

my favourite seasonal colour of the moment - orange! Hooray for<br />

payday – the last time I was paid, I was wearing reindeer ears and<br />

drinking snowballs, so I’m planning on splurging on a new Tom<br />

Ford lipstick in ‘Hiro’.<br />
