When the temperatures plummet, my skin takes a beating. The icy cold winds of January tend to leave me looking more prune-like than plump and dewy — especially right now, during the cold snap we’re experiencing in the UK. And so, it was time to pull out the big guns, namely the most expensive moisturiser I’ve ever used as a beauty editor: Tata Harper’s Crème Riche.
As someone who baulks at spending more than £30 on any product, pricey items really need to go above and beyond to justify their cost. If they’re only providing marginal gains over my affordable skincare choices, like Cerave or Cetaphil, then I won’t reach for it again. But, unfortunately for my bank balance, this little pot of gold that's priced at a whopping £206, managed to transform my parched winter face overnight. In fact, my skin is so noticeably plump and supple on the mornings after I use this product, that I’m hooked for the rest of the season.
