Eyes & Lips
Eyes
No matter your age or skin type, one fact stands true: Eye cream should have a firm spot in your beauty routine. If smooth, bright, and plump skin around your eyes is what you’re after, you need creams and gels full of anti-ageing powerhouses that actually work, staving off fine lines, dark circles, puffiness, and Botox appointments. The eye area must always be sun protected as it is a common area for skin cancer.
However, caution should be observed. “We can give ourselves wrinkles by using over rich eye creams causing puffiness, sagging and lines. Use products light in texture sparingly! If they cause puffiness, either it's too rich, too much or best used in the morning”- Nurse Elis.
Lips
Lip balm is rarely the most thrilling component of your make-up bag – but misplace yours for a day and you’ll soon realise its value. An everyday essential, keeping one of the best lip balms close to hand is always a smart move. Add in an SPF and you’ve hit a homerun. Dr Coleman has selected some of her favourites.
