More Ways You Can Update Your Beauty Routine for Autumn & Winter Avon

5 Ways You Can Update Your Beauty Routine for Autumn & Winter

Summer is officially over. The days are getting shorter, the evenings darker and we’re starting to dig out our woolly jumpers. But as we update our wardrobe, we should also be taking time to update our beauty routine too. From skincare to haircare, follow our 5 easy steps to matching your beauty routine to the changing seasons.

HYDRATE YOUR SKIN

With humidity decreasing and drying influences such as central heating on the up, your skin is likely to feel dried out. And that’s why it’s important to keep your face, lips and skin hydrated throughout the cooler months.

Start with our skincare, introducing moisturisers and serums that include moisture-locking ingredients such as hyaluronic acid and glycerine.

For your lips, find a hydrating lip balm that contains natural butters and oils, such as almond oil, shea butter and vitamin E. These will keep your lips moisturised, but also protect against any external factors.

UPGRADE YOUR MAKE-UP ROUTINE

Like your skincare, it makes sense to upgrade your make-up routine to one that’s all about hydration. A simple way of doing this is by swapping out your powered make-up for creams and gels. From liquid eyeliners to cream blushers – they feel so much softer on your skin during the cooler months and will leave your skin looking dewy.

USE GENTLE CLEANSERS

Cleansers can strip away your skin’s natural oils, leaving your skin to feel dry and tight. That’s why it’s good to use a gentle cleanser throughout autumn and winter; a face wash that not only cleanses away impurities but keeps your skin healthy.

A great alternative is an oil-infused micellar water, this type of cleanser not only removes your make-up, it’s also super-nourishing, leaving you with super-soft skin.

If you want to avoid oil-based products, then cleansers containing vitamin-E or rose essence always work perfectly with sensitive skin.

SPF IS IMPORTANT

It might not be warm, but the sun’s rays can still cause damage throughout autumn and winter. To keep your skin safe, we’d always recommend using an SPF sunscreen or moisturiser as part of your autumn/winter skincare routine.

From low SPF10 to high SPF30, by protecting your skin you will help to reduce fine lines, wrinkles and discolouration. It’ll also help to protect you from the effects of skin cancer, so why wouldn’t you use it?

GET YOUR HAIR PARTY READY

First of all, avoid hot water. No matter how tempting it is to dive under a hot shower, you should always keep the temperature at a nice medium. Not only will the hot water dry out your skin, it can also damage your scalp and hair, stripping it of its natural oils and leaving it dry and frizzy.

Secondly, keep your hair protected from heated styling with nourishing hair serums and treatments.

Not sure where to start? Try looking out for ingredients such as argan and coconut oil. These lock in your hair’s moisture, acting as a barrier to heat.

Ready to face the changing seasons head on? From keeping your skin hydrated to taming that mane, we hope our guide to updating your beauty routine for autumn and winter has you prepped and ready for the cooler months ahead.

How to Make Your Make-Up Last All Day

How to Make Your Make-Up Last All Day

Are you constantly having to top up your make-up throughout the day – or even during a night out? Then we’re here to help. Here are our 5 easy-to-follow tips on how to make your make-up last all day – from priming to applying foundation.

1. EXFOLIATE YOUR SKIN

Like any piece of art, it all starts with the base. To give your make-up the best chance of looking perfect, start by exfoliating your skin. This works to get rid of any dead skin, leaving your face polished and ready for application.

2. USE ANTI-AGEING MOISTURISERS

Unlike your everyday moisturiser, anti-ageing face creams help to keep your skin looking smooth and firm.

So why is this important? Well, have you ever noticed that sometimes your make-up starts to settle into your lines and wrinkles? With a firming cream, you’ll keep your skin free of lines and your make-up looking fresher for longer. 

3. PRIME YOUR SKIN FOR ACTION

To help set your foundation for longer, it’s good to apply a quality face primer. The best primers will not only blur pores and imperfections, they’ll also help to keep your make-up in place.

Top tip: apply primer over your eyelids – it will help your eyeshadow and eyeliner to last longer.

4. CHOOSE LONG-LASTING MAKE-UP

Longwear make-up is another key element to making sure your make-up lasts all day. Start by applying a long-lasting foundation, using a flat brush – this will make sure it’s evenly applied. Finish by dusting a setting powder over your face.

Not sure which foundation is right for you? Find out with our handy guide to finding the perfect foundation.

5. SET IT IN PLACE WITH A SETTING SPRAY

Finally, invest in a quality setting spray. This will make sure that your final look is stopped in time, so that you look as good by the end of the night as you did when you left the house. To use, simply apply your make-up as usual and gently spray it over, leaving time for it to dry on your skin.

We hope our guide has helped you to master making your make-up last all-day. In the meantime, why not check out some of our other blogs. From finding the perfect red lipstick to learning what hyaluronic acid is, it’s time to start swatting up on your beauty knowledge.

The Ultimate Guide to Fragrance UK

Not sure what the difference between Eau de Parfum and Eau de Toilette is? What about top, middle and base notes? If you’re confused already, we’re here to help with the answers to your fragrance-based questions.

EAU DE PARFUM OR EAU DE TOILETTE?

Want to know the difference between Eau de Parfum and Eau de Toilette? It starts with how strong the scent is. Eau de Toilette fragrances have low levels of perfume oil, making them perfect for when you’re at work or don’t fancy anything too potent.

However, if you’re going somewhere fancy or out with friends, then an Eau de Parfum’s intensity (8-15% perfume oils!) will be better suited and will last longer. 

WHAT ARE FRAGRANCE NOTES?

All fragrances tend to have top, middle and base notes. These are essentially the layers of the fragrance, denoting the different scents you might recognise.

Top notes: this is the first scent you’ll detect but also the lightest fragrance, and the ones that’ll fade over time.

Middle notes: usually floral or fruity, the middle notes are the centre of your fragrance, bringing the individual scents together.

Base notes: these add depth to your perfume, and they’re usually the scents that last the longest. 

THE FRAGRANCE FAMILIES

When looking for a fragrance, you’ll often find the top, middle and base notes described as floral, woody or fruity. To help, we’ve put together a list of the most common fragrance families.

Floral – Think light and airy, sweet and feminine. Floral is perfect for daytime fragrances.

Oriental – Just like the climate of distant lands, this scent is warm, intense and spicy. Perfect for evenings out.

Woody – Go back to nature with this earthy, herby and masculine scent.

Citrus - From hints of mandarin to the zingy zest of lemon, a citrusy note will add a freshness to your fragrance.

Fruity – Sweet berries, succulent peaches and juicy apples all fall under the fruity scent, making it the perfect fragrance for the summer.

Fougère – From the French word for ‘fern’, this is a woody, herby and slightly sweet fragrance family that’s traditionally masculine.

Feeling more confident when it comes to choosing your next perfume? Put your new-found skills to the test and explore our full fragrance collection, which includes a little of everything – from feminine to masculine!
