YOU Magazine Fashion Beauty Celebrity Health Life Relationships Horoscopes Food Interiors Travel Home Beauty Edwina Ings-Chambers My super-cool new way with skincare By You Magazine - July 4, 2021 Need a beauty refresh? Try chilling your products. Since this is our special food issue I thought it appropriate to extend the theme to these pages, but perhaps not in the way you might expect. I’m not going to talk about ingredients but about refrigeration, because keeping some of your skincare products nicely chilled is a great way of not only making it more refreshing to use, but can also help with de-puffing and soothing as well as giving a bit of a boost of circulation. Lisa Sheehan Plus a couple of recent launches that I’ve been enjoying using (especially on warmer weather days) have been created specifically with the intention that they should be kept in the fridge. One is the Patchology Serve Chilled Rosé range which includes a great face Sheet Mask (£8) and Eye Gels (£14 for five, both selfridges.com) containing hydrating hyaluronic acid plus resveratrol to tackle inflammation. Personally, I keep eye masks in the kitchen fridge year-round but these are my current choice and leave my eyes feeling refreshed and looking brighter. Skin Proud has also launched a product intended to be kept chilly. Frozen Over (£16.95, asos.com) has a gel-to-ice texture and is a great hydrator – it also features the dependable ingredient hyaluronic acid to do the job. Keep in the fridge or for one, or ideally three hours, in the freezer to add extra de-puffing and soothing power – as well as a bracing wake-up call. Apply in the morning or throughout the day. But if you leave it to freeze for longer than the allotted time the texture will become more like that of a slushy drink. Another skincare staple I keep in my fridge is De Mamiel Dewy Facial Mist (£52, demamiel.com). Think of this as a serum in spritzable form that you can use to add hydration to your skincare routine, to help to quench skin and during the day on top of make-up. With its high content of Persian rosewater it’s a wonderful-smelling pick-me-up too. According to John Lewis, body sprays are having a moment with sales of many up 275 per cent year on year. Keeping them cold makes them even more refreshing to use. I love Tom Ford Neroli Portofino All Over Body Spray, which is always a great summer fragrance with sunshine notes of bergamot, lemon and orange flower (£55, johnlewis.co.uk or tomford.co.uk). Tools, such as a Rose Quartz Facial Roller, are also great when used chilled. I like The White Company’s (£30, thewhitecompany.com). Cryo Facial Tools are becoming more popular, too. Kept in the freezer, they have the added benefit of encouraging lymphatic drainage when rolled over the face. This stylish stainless-steel design from Oxygen Boutique (£55, oxygenboutique.com) is my new go-to. @edwinaingschambers Beauty assistant: Alice Robertson RELATED ARTICLESMORE FROM AUTHOR You could get paid to test Liberty’ s Beauty Advent Calendar People are obsessed with this Revlon hair drying tool A new drop of Boots Star Gifts has landed for Christmas 2022 Popular in Beauty People are seriously impressed with Primark’ s £8 skinny curling tongs December 16, 2019 Boots is giving away free lipsticks to celebrate the launch of January 23, 2020 This long-lasting eyebrow product is getting rave reviews and is just June 21, 2021 These Liz Earle gift sets are on sale just in time March 5, 2020 WIN A Kiehl’ s skincare heroes bundle worth £104 July 24, 2020 Cult skincare brand Sunday Riley is branching out into hair products April 24, 2020 Superdrug is holding a huge BOGOF sale on all cosmetics for May 28, 2020 Your salon could charge you extra for overgrown roots and bad June 25, 2020 Facial steamers Why searches for this beauty gadget were up 400 July 10, 2020 Lush subscription boxes have arrived and they contain exclusive new products August 3, 2020 Popular CategoriesFood2704Life2496Fashion2240Beauty1738Celebrity1261Interiors684 Sign up for YOUMail Thanks for subscribing Please check your email to confirm (If you don't see the email, check the spam box) Fashion Beauty Celebrity Life Food Privacy & Cookies T&C Copyright 2022 - YOU Magazine.
