The sun is shining and I have a spring in my step. The trouble is my skin doesn’t, in fact it's never looked so lacklustre. The only remedy I know is to head to Spa Illuminata as fast as my legs will carry me for a Carita Ideal Intense Hydration facial which aims to restore thirsty complexions (it uses their divine Lagoon Serum, £52  which if you haven’t tried I urge you to do so - it changed my dehydrated skin). An hour and a half (and lots of heavenly massage) later and my skin is positively glowing and as springy as my step.
