How to beat the chill this January

Winter’s arrived in full force this January – and it’s calling for an overhaul of our entire routine. If, like us, you’re feeling the frost already, we’re here to help turn winter into its warmest one yet, thanks to our collection of cosy fashion, beauty homeware essentials. Discover new ways to wear the latest style, new ways to solve your winter concerns, and new ways to heat both yourself your home this season.

Best for a warmer wardrobe

The easiest way to bring your wardrobe into winter territory? You need all the layers you can get your hands on. Opt for wool blend jumpers, cosy cashmere socks, and belted full-length coats to curate the perfect insulation for the frostier months – plus scarves, gloves, hats earmuffs to really keep the chill at bay. And our ultimate secret weapon? Thermals! Thermal everything under your clothes and you’ll forget it’s even January…

Best for winter skin concerns

If there’s one thing we can be sure of in winter, it’s that it’s known to wreak havoc on our skin. Whether it’s increased dryness or flakiness, exacerbated dullness, or uneven texture, our complexion cries out for a skincare switch-up in cooler weather.

Look to quenching ingredients like hyaluronic acid and barrier-building favourites like ceramides to help safeguard your skin against the elements. We love Kiehl’s Ultra Facial Barrier Balm and the AMELIORATE Transforming Body Cream for keeping skin smooth nourished from top to toe.

Best for heating at home

If you’re prone to taking refuge indoors through the winter (and let’s face it – who isn’t?), you need our home heating essentials to help curate a cosy haven. Bask in the unparalleled comfort of our electric blankets, halogen heaters teddy fleece bedding sets, perfect for unwinding after a long day battling the icy outdoor weather. Plus, indulge in our best mugs homey mood lighting to really set the ambience aglow.
