Victoria Beckham Beauty x Augustinus Bader
This tinted primer is the first step in my make-up routine forming the perfect base layer to build up your look day or night.
Raaie
A rich moisturising cream that works wonders to deeply hydrate the skin, with packaging as gorgeous as the product itself.
Hermès Beauty
This eyeliner is a staple I don’t leave the house without. It stays in place for hours, so no smudged circles under your eyes!
Trish McEvoy
This is the perfect everyday SPF as well as a brilliant skin-booster which delivers an effortless glow.
Not only does Jaipur Chant EDP smell seductively heady and exotic, I love the fact that the brand is cruelty free and Earth friendly. It’s a feel-good, smell-great fragrance!
AKT
Once you try AKT deodorant balm there is no going back. It’s all natural, nourishing and keeps you dry all day long.
Sana Jardin
Not only does Jaipur Chant EDP smell seductively heady and exotic, I love the fact that the brand is cruelty free and Earth friendly. It’s a feel-good, smell-great fragrance!
Cerave
A true game-changer, I use this vitamin C-infused serum first thing every morning to combat dry and tired skin.
Wildsmith
I discovered Wildmsith at Heckfield Place Hotel and it was love at first use! You can feel the nourishing effects of this body butter from the very first application.
Chanel
This lip balm isn’t just the incredibly flattering, it’s also soothing and moisturising. I use the shade Pink Delight, and keep one in each of my favourite handbags!
Kat Burki
A new brand discovery, Kat Burki has created an amazing way to integrate collagen into your nightly ritual to lift your skin.
MZ Skin
Dr Maryam Zamani has designed a five-day, science-backed replenishing treatment that I highly recommend leading up to any big event.
The Light Salon
Just 10 minutes with this at-home LED mask is a real pick-me-up, not only brightening my skin but also boosting my mood.
Lucinda Chambers
Collagerie Co-Founder
De Mamiel
This balm is especially lovely in winter. A cross between an oil and a cream, it both cleanses and nourishes in one go.
Natura Bissé
This is a double whammy – a fabulously rich moisturiser and great balancing concealer. I feel incredibly pampered when I put it on.
Beauty Pie
I’ve really grasped the power of using a serum under a moisturiser every day, and this one sinks in beautifully, leaving your skin feeling plump and radiant. Loving it!
Chanel
Anything from Chanel feels uber-treaty! I will use this sparingly but every day as I do value an eye cream – and this is divine!
Seed to Skin
I adore this body balm – it’s super hydrating with no stickiness, and just sinks right in, banishing those winter legs.
Merit
I read a rave review about this blusher and it didn’t disappoint! It’s quite sheer, but adds a flattering flush. And I love the dinky, portable pot.
Irene Forte
Hydrating, exfoliating and rejuvenating, this mask is brilliant for your skin on flights, especially long haul. You arrive looking refreshed and rested.
Hair By Sam McKnight
Once a week I treat my hair to this nourishing oil. It adds shine and makes the colour pop again, which I love.
Jones Road
This hydrating balm would be my Desert Island product. You can use it everyday, everywhere – a beauty magic trick on a stick!
Ffern
This brand is niche and you have to wait, but it is worth it. Every season you are sent a limited-edition fragrance, and there’s a story behind each one. If you can fall in love with a scent, then I have with Winter 25.
Ilia
Whenever I am doing something special, I apply this lightweight, priming moisturiser before my makeup. It gives an incredible glow, energising your face so it’s on receive mode for foundation.
Frownies
These are a bit of an eccentricity, but they work. Stick one onto your forehead before bed and you wake up looking fresh instead of furious!

Weleda
A do-it-all wonder that’s been in my winter beauty kit for years, I use this multi-tasking moisturiser at night to soothe and rehydrate, and by day on my cheekbones for a subtle glow.
Naturium
This soothing, nourishing body lotion came to me as a TikTok tip and now it’s a permanent fixture in my bathroom.
Medik8
I’m a big fan of peptides in skincare, this serum is one of my favourites.
Ole Henriksen
This peptide-enriched balm is the best lip treatment I have tried.
Living Proof
My hair is a trifecta of dehydrating disasters: fine, curly and bleached! This amazing treatment gives it back some shine.
U Beauty
This is by far my favourite face oil. I use it as the last step of my evening skincare routine, layered on top of my serums and moisturiser.
Dr. Jart+
Incredibly soothing, this calming cream has green pigments that offset redness – very useful when your skin is extra sensitive this time of year.
Glossier
If dryness leaves your skin looking a little dull, this serum is the route to instant glow.
Arkive
When my curly locks need the extra moisture, this cushiony leave-in cream is incredible. It smells delicious too!
Drunk Elephant
My already-thirsty complexion hates the dryness that comes with winter’s cranked-up central heating. This nourishing cream is like a protective barrier for your skin.
Rhode
This lightweight barrier lotion hydrates skin like no other! I use it as the first step after cleansing.
Byoma
I swap a gel facial cleanser for a more hydrating balm in winter. This one removes makeup perfectly and is very affordable – my top two conditions for a cleanser.
Pom Carleton-Smith
Brand and Content Director
Sunday Riley
A real “can’t live without” product, this skin-quenching oil brightens, nourishes and enhances my skin. It’s a faux glow and perfect for a no make-up day.
Elizabeth Arden
An oldie but an absolutely goldie – this isn’t just a remarkable, all-over hydrating balm, the smell reminds me of my mum and granny too so has a lovely nostalgic feeling as well.
Philip Kingsley
The switch between cold weather and heated offices gives my hair grief, so this leave-in conditioner is a must to reduce breakages.
G Herbal
I’ve hardly had a blemish since I started taking these religiously. I take them with my other supplements daily.
Beauty Pie
If you suffer from dark under-eye circles like me, which seem to worsen with the lack of vitamin D, then a niacinamide product is a must. I’m really seeing a difference with these brightening drops.
Bio Sculpture
One of my 2025 beauty resolutions is nailcare, making cuticle oil a must, day and night. This one is easy to apply and smells divine.
Chämpo
My hair is very thick and gets super dry in the winter. Smoothing in a little bit of this hair oil after heat styling delivers instant shine.
Gatineau
Having a tan changes my entire outlook on life (sad but true!) and this buildable tanner develops into a very natural, non-orange shade. It’s hydrating too!
De Mamiel
I like to layer up oils at night, to deeply hydrate my complexion. I was a big fan of the Autumn oil by De Mamiel, and now the Winter blend is top of my list.
Bioderma
I’m prone to dry eyes and eczema when it’s cold. This clears it up pretty much instantly, using the tiniest amount.
Oskia
Re-establishing my sleep routine after a busy festive period can be a struggle, and these bath salts before bed are my solution. They are super-relaxing, smell great and add a nice shimmer to my soak.
Merit
Unlike some others, this hydrating lipstick doesn’t go dry when I’m out in the elements. The shade Ginger from The Satins range is my go-to.
Maya Zepinic
Senior Content and Style Editor
Victoria Beckham Beauty x Augustinus Bader
I love VB beauty – the serum is incredible and the primer leaves your skin sooooo smooth. Both have been in my makeup bag since last year and I can’t recommend them enough!
Byredo
This body milk is scented with one of my favourite fragrances, and it leaves my skin feeling super-soft into the bargain!
Sisley Paris
This is my go-to during flights and in the winter months, when heating is a constant. I use it as an overnight mask and it really quenches thirsty skin.
Soveral
This fantastic mask and cleansing balm is a double whammy product that’s great for end-of-day make-up removal and moisturising. It’s 100% organic too.
DLC Skincare
The best overnight vitamin C boost! You’ll wake to smooth, hydrated, brightened skin. It’s a great anti-ageing formula, too, and combats fine lines.
Jones Road
I’m a “no makeup makeup” girl, and this tinted balm works a treat, delivering subtle colour, moisture and shine.
Kat Burki
I use this as a night mask on my neck and décolletage – body parts that are easily overlooked. It’s so good!
Trilogy
This has been my daily saviour since I was 18. Just 3-4 drops leaves my skin moisturised, replenished and smooth.
Philip Kingsley
A miracle mask for fine or damaged locks, this deep conditioner saved my hair from postpartum shedding and combats the hair loss that comes with seasonal changes.
Chanel
My daily moisturiser for last the 10 years, this is ultra light, leaving my face smooth and non-greasy pre-makeup.
Medik8
This mask is a great fix for winter-dry skin; a quick 15 minute treatment is transformative.
Dior
This cult product is the perfect cuticle and nail moisturiser.
