Beauty Bible Weekend Steal: new Simple skin-quenchers

It may have been payday for some people yesterday – but there’s honestly no need to go out and splurge more than you have to, if you need a new moisturiser.

These two offerings from Simple – a skincare name that we so often recommend to sensitive-skinned women, and to those embarking on their skincare journey – are most definitely ‘a steal’.

For dry to super-dry skin, both are just lush. Fragrance-free, hypoallergenic, with no harsh chemicals or artificial colourings (‘twas ever thus with Simple), and with bouncy textures, these are most definitely what complexions are crying out for, at this end of winter. (There’s a tiny bit of light at the end of the wintry weather tunnel, but our central heating is most definitely still ON, and that’s skin’s worst enemy, at this time of year.)

Simple Repairing Rich Cream has a deceptively lightweight texture; featuring organic Centella Asiatica, Simple say this is clinically proven to strengthen skin barrier, while leaving skin nourished and velvety.

Simple Soothing Water Cream is formulated with organic aloe and ceramide-boosters, promising over 24 hours of hydration. It has a water-gel texture, so if that’s your favoured texture, this is your go-to.

Recommended price is £9.99 for 50ml – already almost ridiculously great value – but they’re on sale even more affordably at Boots right now (links below). Just be sure to get the right one, as the packaging’s confusing: Repairing has pink type, the Soothing is green.

And at this price, you can afford to be as lavish as your skin demands.
