The mositure-zapping effects of central heating, skin-flaying bitter winter winds and Vitamin D starved pelts can mean by mid-winter, our skin is in serious need of some SOS.  City-bound dwellers especially can take a serious hit from pollution damaging their skin, and I find whenever I am in the big smoke, the accumulation of dirt and pollution really makes me break out and dulls my skin.

FEEL-GOOD BEAUTY: FIRST VIDEO - INNER & OUTER GLOW

I am so excited to introduce a new segment to the Mad To Live Mix.  In feel-good beauty I will be talking about some of my favourite products which help me feel my best and maintain a happy inner and outer glow.
