It took me longer to decide a title for this post than to actually take the photo \u2013 which says a lot about my photography really. Anyway, since I sit at my desk for 85% of my life, I thought I\u2019d show you a few everyday essentials.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
First up, hand cream. We all know I\u2019m a little obsessed with hand cream, and one of my favourite more luxe options is the Aesop Resurrection Aromatique Hand Balm (\u00a319) \u2013 I almost wish I didn\u2019t like this as much as I do, because it\u2019s quite a pricey number and the way I slather on the stuff is less than ideal. This has a lovely citrusy scent and sinks in to the skin instantly, helping hands and nails to look their best. It\u2019s even better than the packaging would lead you to believe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I also keep a bottle of the Caudalie Beauty Elixir (\u00a332) within arms reach, as it\u2019s just beautiful! I adore this stuff and I think it\u2019s a great way to keep skin all healthy and hydrated throughout the day \u2013 just a spritz or two mid-day keeps my complexion dewy and glowing. I think this stuff works miracles on redness and blemishes, so I try and squeeze it in to my routine where possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A couple of other staples include the NUXE Reve De Miel Lip Balm (\u00a39.50) \u2013 another everyday staple for me, and it seems to have earned itself cult status in recent years, especially amongst us bloggers! If you haven\u2019t tried it, believe the hype \u2013 it feels incredible to apply and really tackles dry, chapped lips. It\u2019s works so well when applied as an overnight treatment too. Also here is the Jo Malone Pomegranate Noir Candle (\u00a340), which I\u2019m almost out of. This scent is just incredible, I love it burning throughout autumn \u2013 really adds a nice warmth to the room too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Also seen above is the mt Washi Tape I love so much!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
