MAISON MARGIELA - Replica Autumn Vibes eau de toilette
Gorgeous woody cherry perfume with the right depth for winter wear.
La Vie Est Belle Elixir Cherry Eau de Parfum 100ml
A soft and natural pop of colour.
CLINIQUE - Almost Lipstick 1.9g
The hair treatment I’d add when central heating and colder weather start showing up in the ends. You only need a few drops through the mid-lengths, so it adds polish and softness without turning an everyday routine into another ten-step process.
The Hair Oil 30ml
Handbag essential for the colder months. Use it on dry lips, hands or anywhere else that needs extra moisture. I also love the compact Dior packaging, which feels much nicer to pull out than a tube of emergency hand cream.
Dior Le Baume multi-use balm 50ml
I’d save this if I wanted something richer for colder weather but wasn’t ready to buy a full bottle. It gives you a much better sense of which oud direction you actually enjoy wearing.
Kayali Discovery Layering Set
I like discovery kits because perfume changes so much once it has been on skin for a few hours. I’d use this to compare several directions before deciding what I actually want more of.
Phlur Discovery Kit 8x2ml
This is the practical beauty pick for a day that includes tennis, golf, the pool or lunch outside. I’d keep a face SPF in the bag rather than rely on whatever I applied before leaving home, especially if the day stretches from sport into the afternoo...

Manucurist Active Glow Blueberry
When my skin feels drier in colder weather, I want a cleanser that leaves it comfortable rather than tight. This gentle foaming formula removes daily impurities without the stripped feeling associated with harsher washes.
The Gentle Kiehl’s Cleanser for a Winter Skincare Routine
A soothing balm for dry and uncomfortable areas during colder weather. A useful targeted addition for readers who need barrier support.
The Cica Barrier Balm for Winter Skin
A compact hydrating stick that is easy to keep in a handbag for dry patches and cold-weather touch-ups. The invisible formula can be used over or under makeup, making it particularly useful when travelling.
The Little Kiehl’s Barrier Balm for Cold Days
A rich overnight treatment with 10.5% squalane, designed to help with dryness and tightness. A lovely once- or twice-weekly addition when skin needs extra comfort in colder weather.
The Overnight Mask I’d Add to a Winter Skincare Routine
A premium face and neck serum positioned around the appearance of firmness and wrinkles. An investment treatment for readers seeking a more targeted skincare edit.
The Dior Serum for a More Considered Skincare Routine
A richer-feeling luxury day cream to consider when curating a premium autumn and winter skincare routine. Choose according to skin type and tolerance rather than season alone.
