Hydration. It is essential for a perfect complexion but so many of us, though well-moisturised are not well-hydrated.

It's not just about drinking water, although that will help keep you skin cells nice and plump.

My best beauty bag secret without fail is Dermalogica's Skin Hydrating Masque.

Dermalogica recommend applying it to your skin, leaving it for 10 minutes and then washing it off. And I'm sure it works beautifully.

But, I do not use it according to the directions, although by all means do.

I apply a thin layer all over, but particularly around my eyes, chin and forehead - these are my dry spots.

I let it absorb a little and then apply my moisturiser. So, I use it as a sort of serum.

Honestly, give it a go. Your skin will be claar, fresh and look amazing!

Product of the day!

Today's star is…Aesop Geranium Leaf Body Scrub!

I love a good exfoliation - there is nothing like it to make your skin glow and feel smooth.

I also love the top quality Aussie brand, Aesop, the entire range is beautiful, useful and indispensable!

So when the two are combined it is a winning formula to my mind!

So, what's so great about it?

It is not skin-type specific for a start, which means it's a great little product that you can keep in the shower and everyone can use, so you get more value for money.

Unlike some other scrubs which feel like you are being rubbed down by a wire wool pad, this is a gentle exfoliator.

The product is mildly abrasive rather than skin-flaying and it also has a detoxifying quality, as such it feels like you get a deep down clean; something more intensive than your average scrubs.

I love the feeling after using this scrub - your skin does look and feel smoother, but you also feel hydrated in some way. What more could you want?!
