Skincare saviours

The change in seasons can bring different challenges to your skin, from dryness and cracks to chaps and sore. Skincare brand, Lotil, gently re-hydrates dry skin, aiding moisture retention and providing maximum protection against environmental and climatic conditions. Lotil contains anti-bacterial and antiseptic properties that provide a long-lasting barrier to infection.

Our beauty editor, Kelly Andrews, was delighted to review the Lotil original cream, foot care cream and lip care cream:

"As the weather has now well and truly turned, this review couldn't have come at a better time for me. My lips are getting chapped already and my poor feet are suffering the effects of months in flip-flops. To be honest, I can never find a foot cream that actually does anything at all, but I was pleasantly surprised with this product. It absorbs really quickly and does leave the skin feeling softer. I applied it at bed time so it can get to work over-night and liked the fact that it didn't leave a greasy residue.

The lip balm provides much welcome relief from dry chapped lips. Again, it's non-greasy, but does form a comforting protective barrier that lasts.

We're having building work done at the moment and the relentless dust as well as the colder weather is wreaking havoc with my skin, so the Lotil Cream Original Formula has been a lifesaver, well that's melodramatic, but you know what I mean! It absorbs quickly into dry hands providing instant relief and is also great for any other dry patches of skin that rear their ugly heads. These are fab products for their money, ideal to get you through the harsh winter that seems to be on it's way!"
