Get your glow on this winter!



Summer has now moved seamlessly into Autumn and with the change of seasons comes the need to tweak your skincare regime.   To help you make the adjustments we've put together some hints, tips and ideas on how to help you achieve healthy, happy skin.

At Face Matters our range of 5 anti-ageing collagen boosting products are formulated using 100% organic silicon blended with carefully selected botanical oils, which together stimulate the production of collagen and elastin – both of which are reduced as your skin ages.   The results of this unique formula have been proven in our extensive skin trials.



So, how best to incorporate Face Matters into your daily routine? 

Cleanse but ditch the soap!   Start and finish each day with our ANYTIME CLEANSER a seriously effective foaming cleanser.  The surface of your skin will be left feeling revitalised without any tautness.  With a super gentle sugar-based foamer, aloe to cool, argan to nourish, geranium to soothe, lemon which is a natural antiseptic and mandarin to stimulate the circulation, and of course a shot of that all important collagen-boosting organic silicon.



Exfoliate with an oil-based scrub.  The summer sun and chlorine may have left your skin feeling dry and flaky.   Oil based scrubs are wonderful because they exfoliate and hydrate simultaneously but they don’t strip the skin.  If granular scrubs are not your thing our 24/7BALM multi-tasks as an effective exfoliant when used with the enclosed muslin cloth.  Skin will feel cleansed, incredibly soft and look radiant – with the added boost of  collagen stimulating mineral Si.  



Switch from lotion to cream.  As the air becomes drier your skin needs a thicker moisturiser.  Creams provide a stronger oily barrier which means they both reduce water loss from the outer layer of skin and provide hydration to this layer at the same time. Our super effective MORNING MOISTURISER is light and soothing, non-greasy and absorbs quickly into the skin, it also acts as a perfect base for make-up. Rich in beta-carotene, essential fatty acids, oleic and linoleic acids, plus skin-loving vitamins A and E, phytic acid, vitamin B complex to stimulate cell regeneration and replenishing squalene for a naturally younger looking fresher GLOW!



Saving the best till last?  Fast becoming the hero product of the range is the EVENING ELIXIR your bedtime essential for healthy skin.  Apply a drop or two into your hand and massage gently on thoroughly cleansed skin.  With a potent blend of botanical ingredients, rich in Omega 3, 6 and 9, vitamin E and essential fatty acids (essential for the retention and enhancement of skin moisture), Vitamin A to aid cell regeneration and GLA, it will revitalise, restore and replenish ageing skin, plus giving it that all important collagen stimulating boost.  Once tried can’t live without – that’s a promise!



Central heating and stepping from hot indoor to cold outdoor temperatures really does dehydrate and take it’s toll; on ageing skin particularly.  This is when investing in the collagen stimulating boost ALL DAY SPRITZ pays dividends.  Spray into palm of hand and press firmly into the face and neck morning and evening after cleansing.  Re-spritz during the day as and when skin begins to feel fatigued and dehydrated to revitalise the complexion.  The skin very quickly starts to show a healthier tone and texture and will look fresher, smoother and much firmer.

As well as being truly effective, the range smells divine too, Sally spent 18 months working on the blending of the botanical oils to get the scent just right….Rose, Jasmine, Geranium, Mandarin and Lemon…

Be happy. Be you.
