Winter Skin Care with Votary

Winter skin can be a nightmare, double that nightmare when you are peri menopausal! Here’s my confession for many many years I just washed my face with soap and moisturized, never could be bothered with lots of lotions and potions. I used to suffer with breakouts when I was in my teens to early twenties, then thirties and forties came and went without me really thinking much about my face at all but now I’m right in the thick of the peri menopause and my skin really doesn’t like it. Out of no where I developed rosacea on my cheeks, luckily not that bad but none the less its still there and trying to find the right product to reduce, alleviate redness or hopefully make it go away altogether has been a challenge.

So this is where VOTARY steps in with Super Seed, its early days but I am starting to see a difference. Hopefully over time the rosacea, along with HRT, eating well, exercise, keeping hydrated and having lots of sleep will be a small blip and my skin will return to being refreshed and healthy looking from now on in. Its time to add these simple steps to my routine (yes I do have one now, even before Votary) to enhance what I’ve started a few years ago to balance out my hormonal skin.

Taking the time to feed your skin with Super Seed, its effective, natural care for sensitive, dry, hormonal and redness prone skin can easily become part of your daily routine, starting with your eyes.

Super Bright Eye Gel

Start your day bright. Super Bright Eye Gel refreshes and revives tired eyes, targeting fine lines, dark circles, and loss of elasticity. Formulated for the delicate eye area, Super Bright Eye Gel is enriched with antioxidant seed extracts and is unfragranced to benefit the most sensitive skin types. If I don’t get 8 hours of good sleep I do tend to get darker circles under my eyes so using this is helping enormously even after a night well slept.

Super Seed Nutrient Cream

Soothing, nourishing and protective care for sensitive skin that is experiencing dryness and redness. Matte, smooth finish. Super Seed Nutrient Cream helps to create a layered barrier between your face and the world. Deeply moisturising and protective, it leaves fragile skin wrapped up and ready to face any kind of weather. The perfect replacement for any moisturizer, working through the day to protect and nourish. Easily used before you put on your makeup, with its matt finish it helps your foundation stay put too but doesn’t make your skin feel tight at all.

Super Sensitive Cleansing Cream

Super Sensitive Cleansing Cream is an ultra gentle rinse-off cleansing cream that melts away dirt, impurities and makeup effortlessly while supporting your skin’s essential barrier function. VOTARY’s first non-oil cleanser is formulated specifically with super-sensitive skin in mind, leaving delicate skin calmed and hydrated. This nourishing cleansing cream is the best way to cleanse sensitive, reactive skin. The soothing rinse-off formulation leaves skin clean and soft while supporting your skin barrier through tough times. The perfect cleanser to use in your evening routine at the end of the day.

Super Seed Serum

Using the Super Seed Serum on your skin before you go to bed works wonders, knowing that it’s working its magic as you sleep. The serum is formulated to be free from fragrance allergens and colour. The curated active ingredients mean that sensitive and irritated skin is soothed and improved leaving your skin feeling fully hydrated and protected. VOTARY Super Seed Serum relieves redness while calming and softening skin. Cooling and refreshing on your skin, it leaves your skin more resilient and less reactive.

So from waking up to going to bed you know your skin is being protected, nourished and hydrated in a sensitive way, reducing redness, helping us combat our hormonal skin and making us feel 10 years younger in the process.
