Carmex Lip Balm I've been using Carmex for years and I'm a big fan. It's affordable, keeps your lips from drying out and also gives them a lovely tingle when you first apply. My husband borrowed mine so often that I had to go and buy him his own.
A good handcream When you're working with food, the frequent hand washing can leave your skin very dry. I love Crabtree & Evelyn's Pomegranate, Argan & Grapeseed and use it every night. It smells amazing but more importantly it intensively moisturises and keeps the skin soft and replenished.
La Roche Posay cleansing milk I have very sensitive skin on my face and harsh products cause redness and irritation. La Roche Posay's range for intolerant skin is excellent and their cleansing milk is gentle but effective.
Clarins Relax Body Treatment Oil This oil smells and feels beautiful on your skin, I try to apply after showering to lock in moisture. The plant extracts used in their oils have a soothing scent, giving a feeling of well being.
Mascara Most of my makeup is from Lancôme and I'm currently using their Hypnose mascara. It accentuates your eyes and brightens your look, even if you don't have time to apply anything else.
