My skincare routine definitely changes with the seasons and these are the three products I have been reaching for all the time recently to help the transition from Autumn/Winter to Spring Summer.
First up, the Tea Tree Toner Water from Lush. It is no secret that I am a huge Lush fan and this buy has fast become one I cannot survive without. You can use it on cotton wool to cleanse the face and remove dirt/make up or you can shut your eyes and just spray it straight on to clean skin. It is in no way overpowering in scent or sensation as some tea tree products can be; it feels really gentle on the skin but you can also feel it working. Since using this, my skin feels so much fresher, my pores are definitely less obvious and it halts evil break ups in their tracks. My routine is not complete without this anymore.
Secondly, The Body Shop's Vitamin E Overnight Serum in Oil: A slightly strange product that feels a bit risky slathering on to your face at night. As my skin can vary from normal to oily/spotty, adding more oil into the situation just feels stupid. But this stuff is fantastic! You wake up with skin feeling clean and fresh with no lingering greasiness as you would expect. My face definitely feels more radiant and fresh after using this, something I am definitely a fan of as I tend to stop wearing foundation and the like in summer.
Finally, another Body Shop product; Honey Bronze. A slightly oddly described "shimmering dry oil". This is something I have had for about 2 years and only recently fallen in love with. You can apply it wherever you fancy really, for a glowy effect that you can usually only achieve after a week abroad. I love using it as a bit of a highlighter on my face, dabbing a small amount in the usual places, cheekbones etc. For a glow that as I said, a week in the sun usually provides. If I am going out or dressing up a bit or what not, I usually like to rub a bit of this on my shoulders/collarbones as it just adds a beautiful depth to the skin.
These three combined are slowly making my skin feel like it is ready for summer.
Are there any products you can't live without? Or would you recommend any other things for me to try out?

Lush Lip Scrub and Balm
Here are two little products that I have fallen head over heels in love with this Autumn. I am always on the hunt for something new to keep my lips nice and although many claim to be amazing, few actually live up to my expectations. These two are on a whole new level of awesome!
I have been a fan of Lush for so long, I adore how everything is so natural and positive and I am a sucker for anything pretty and smelly:)
I had never tried their lip products before and that makes me sad because I have been missing out.

The Bubblegum Lip Scrub smells and tastes divine! Yes, finally, a lip product that tastes as good as it smells and you are actually supposed to eat it! Take a small amount (or a bit bigger if you want some super exfoliation) and rub it on your lips as powerfully as you feel necessary. This will buff away any bits of dry dead skin. Then, lick off the sugar! It tastes like candyfloss! (I also advise checking in the mirror for any little bits of missed sugar otherwise you will walk round looking like a child that has had too many doughnuts or something...) Finally, massage on a normal amount of the Lip Service lip balm and you are sorted! I cannot even describe how wonderful your lips feel after using these two products. I made my friends try them out and they all were expressing the urge to want to kiss someone because they felt so lovely!
Both products have only the bare minimum ingredients in them and of course, they are all super natural and good for you. I chose the Lip Service with a hint of tangerine oil in it and it has a lovely fresh smell and taste when it's on your lips, nothing to overpowering. There are three other variations if you are not a fan of citrus though so it really is for everyone.
I recommend going and checking these two out as soon as you can so that you can keep your pout looking lovely and smooth all winter.
Have you tried any Lush lip products? Are there any you think rival their results?
