Feel like a new you in the New Year
Winter weather plays havoc with our skin, lips and feet. Stephanie Smith seeks beauty saviours for the New Year.
Used by model Caprice, Dead Sea Magik's Algimud Active Seaweed Mask is a concentration of 21 deeply hydrating Dead Sea minerals to cleanse the skin and make it zing with radiance. It contains no parabens, and you mix it up yourself to a gel-like consistency, then leave on for 15 minutes to allow to dry before peeling off. It costs 3.25 from Debenhams, John Lewis, Holland & Barratt and www.findershealth.com.
The beautifully preserved Angela Rippon is the face for a new weapon in the anti-ageing armoury – the MaxiMasque, a thermal device you plug in to work by itself on your skin, or as a boost to any face mask or beauty product. Switch the unit on and wait five minutes before laying a moistened sponge (provided) on to it. Meanwhile, apply your own cream or mask and when the sponge is lukewarm, fasten the MaxiMasque to the face using the velcro strips and leave on for up to 15 minutes. It costs 49.50. For stockists, visit www.anhealth.co.uk, call 0844 567 9374 or email info@anhealth.co.uk.
Ideal for relieving tired feet, whether after too much partying or sales shopping, PainNoMore Pure Col and Aloe Massage Lotion brings instant relief and soothes the skin with a deep-heat type sensation. It's a combination of aloe vera (an effective anti-inflammatory and ideal to aid absorption) and collagen (ideal for protecting and repairing muscle, cartilage and bone). PainNoMore costs 13.95 from 0191 291 3385 or www.LookAndHealth.com.
Also for tired, partied out feet (in fact, rub it on as soon as you get home) lovely Cooling Powdered Foot Gel from L'Occitane feels luxurious and ultra-soothing. With organic verbena extract, it smells gorgeous too. If there's any left after all those New Year walks, save it for your summer holidays. It costs 12.25 from John Lewis and QVC.
