Aside from this two day heatwave, the last of the summer days so far have felt more like autumn - gloomy clouds, gales, downpours and a chill in the air that lead me to head straight into Primark last weekend to pick up a cosy scarf! I've started the prep early to give me a head start and early defence against the unpredictable weather. Armed with nourishing creams and exfoliating picks, I'm prepared to tackle the elements and ready my skin for the cold A/W days ahead!

Body Prep
Packed with exfoliating sugar, vanilla and moisturising murumuru butter, Lush Rough With The Smooth is the ideal quick fix for parched skin. It's a gorgeous, scrubby little block that buffs and polishes, leaving skin soft, smooth and pampered.
Once my body is exfoliated and prepped, I slather on a handful of the calming Origins Lavender and Vanilla Body Souffle. This ultra rich, relaxing cream is ideal to pop on before bed, the dreamy, soothing lavender scent lingers on the skin and helps you to drift off to sleep.

Lip Service
Starting again with an exfoliating scrub, the Lush Popcorn Lip Scrub is a staple to keep lips in top condition. With hydrating coconut oil and jojoba oil, and sea salt and caster sugar to exfoliate, this buffs away dry patches for supple, primed lips. Plus, it smells heavenly - buttery and toffee sweet with a hint of sea salt!
The Nuxe Reve De Miel Lip Balm is a total lip saviour. This balmy, citrus and honey scented treat heals, nourishes and plumps dry lips. It contains honey, sweet almond oil, calendula and shea butter to leave lips incredibly soft - it's definitely one of my top A/W must-haves!

Pampered Paws

Lastly, the Lush Salted Coconut Hand Scrub, is my go-to pick for dry, parched hands. Simply scoop out a small amount of this pampering scrub and massage onto hands to cleanse, hydrate and exfoliate. The divine combination of argan oil, sea salt, lemon and coconut oil leaves hands feeling divine - silky soft!

What are your top picks for super soft skin?
