Two brands that keep my skin soft & supple

As always with a change of season, there comes a switch of product line-ups. Say hello to hydrators if you want to keep your skin from flaking and itching. I’ve always been a huge facial-skin-care-geek, never went to bed without doing the whole facial routine. But, when it comes to taking care of my body, I fail. This year, I made a bit of a deal with myself – to moisturize everyday before I wrap myself into my soft Cheek by Lisca robe. And you know what, I’ve stuck to it quite well (mostly due to some amazing products)!

Every night I (obviously) shower or take a bath and I’ve been loving the Afrodita Hyaluron shower gel. It does such a great job, cleansing and moisturizing combined! It contains 100% natural hyaluronic acid, which generously moisturizes my skin and helps prevent it drying out. After that, I slather myself in a body moisturiser. A complementary Afrodita Hyaluron moisturising body lotion is one of my all-time favourites since it really works down to deeper skin layers and has a non-greasy and fast absorbing formula (that I always look for in body moisturisers).

While Afrodita is a Slovenian brand known for its high quality and affordable prices, and I’ve always supported amazing domestic companies. But when it comes to shaving creams, I haven’t found anything as good as Eos Ultra Moisturising shave cream in Lavender Jasmine. Although it doesn’t foam, it makes shaving so easy while providing my skin with soothing moisture every time I use it. You may know Eos as “the brand” for lipbalms, but guys, I can’t tell you how good this stuff is – I don’t even need to use a moisturiser after!

My lips are ridiculously dry in winter, so I should finish off this post with a good word on another Eos product – the Eos Visibly Soft lipbalm in Coconut Milk, which smells good enough to eat. I find this one even better than the classic (not that they are not good, they are great!), it’s super moisturising and nourishing. As you may notice, every product in this post is geared with hydration in mind from the shower gel to the lipbalm, which makes them perfect for winter time.
