Take time to give the rest of your skin some serious TLC and it will pay you back by looking fabulous

Heavenly hands

Our hands are exposed to so much – cold weather and constant washing-up being the main culprits – and yet we give them very little love. Your regular body lotion or face cream can be too slippery to use on your hands, so try Farmologie Pink Grapefruit Hand Cream, £4.99, Boots. It sinks in instantly and makes them look more hydrated.

Divine décolleté

While the ingredients in a neck and chest cream don’t differ that much from a great face cream, it makes sense to have a product that targets the areas specifically because it’s more likely you’ll use it, keep using it and therefore see results. Plus, the skin on your neck and chest is thinner and therefore more prone to crepiness than that on your face. B. Firming Face & Neck Cream, £14.99, Superdrug, contains plant collagen to make skin look firmer.

Sheeny skin

A face serum is the hardest-working product in your bathroom cabinet, packed with active ingredients that really help to make your skin glow. So of course you need one for your body too.

Boots Vitamin C Brightening Body Serum, £4, Boots, contains vitamin C, which is the skin-enhancing ingredient you need and, thanks to its light texture, is far easier to rub in than a body lotion or butter.

Luscious lips

Your lips are the first place that dehydration reveals itself with dry, cracked skin. So as well as making sure you drink lots of water, it’s important to treat your pout to a gentle scrub and a dose of moisture to keep them looking plump. Step in, Bybi Buffer Lip Scrub, £9, Boots. Brown sugar grains slough away flaky skin, while shea butter and sweet almond oil deliver the hydration, plus it leaves the most gorgeous glow, so your lipstick and lipgloss can have the day off.
