due to the cold weather my face has been awfully dry to the point where it's almost painful! i can't remember my skin ever feeling so dry. I've always suffered from dry skin around my nose but now i seem to have dry patches all over my face. so to try and sort this out and hydrate my skin, every night for the past week I've been following the same skincare routine.1) first i wash my face with a facial exfoliator to help remove any dead skin. the particular one that i am using is the Garnier Pure deep pore wash. i really like this, it always helps clear up my skin.
2)i mix together a small amount of moisturiser and three drops of bio oil and massage onto my face, concentrating on dry area's like around my nose, on my chin etc.
3)i then add a small amount of Vaseline to any area that still feel dry and i even apply it on my eyelashes
4)I've run out of carmex, which is one of my favourite lip care products, so at the moment i am using a lip conditioner my Blistex which is basically exactly the same thing. i like to spread a generous amount of this on my lips before i go to bed.
so far its really helped. iv definitely seen a difference in the dryness of my skin and it's also cleared up a whole lot as well. so far so good!
is anyone else suffering from dry skin?
I've been using bio-oil religiously this winter and it's really been helping, I love blistex too :)

Bio-oil is amazing, it really helped with a mini scar and now I use it daily on any dry patches of skin x
