As temperatures drop, so too can your skin’s moisture level, leaving you battling dryness, dullness and unwelcome pigmentation. The key to combatting seasonal beauty challenges lies in smart skincare and simple makeup swaps that will nourish, protect and illuminate the skin. Thankfully, there is an abundance of hard-working skincare, glow-making makeup and mood-lifting fragrance options awaiting you at Chadstone.

As with all things beauty, starting with a strong base is essential. Switch to a more hydrating cleanser in colder weather that will cleanse without stripping essential moisture – we love Aesop’s Gentle Facial Cleansing Milk. If you suffer from dry skin, prioritise chemical exfoliation with a gentle exfoliating cleaner, like Endota Spa’s Glycolic Exfoliating Cleanser. Next up, layer on ingredient-packed serums like Skinceuticals C E Ferulic Serum (available at Myer), or Jurlique Nutri-Define Supreme Restorative Rich Cream, which tackle pigmentation and boost radiance. Seal them in with a rich moisturiser which cocoons skin in hydration. Don’t forget to seal everything with SPF – even in winter! We love Ultraceuticals UV Protective Daily Moisturiser SPF 50+ at Holism or Ultra Violette's Supreme Screen SPF 50+ at Sephora.

On the makeup front, it’s all about switching to products with hydrating elements. Combat redness and irritation with longwear formulas designed to imbue skin with radiance and nourishing ingredients. NARS formulations are known for providing a flawless finish while maintaining hydration – we suggest NARS Natural Radiant Longwear Foundation at MECCA. Create that perfect winter flush with a liquid blush like Rare Beauty’s, with its creamy formula, which melts seamlessly into skin and adds a natural warmth to your cheeks (Rare Beauty Soft Pinch Liquid Blush at Sephora). Dry lips? Not this winter. Keep lips silky soft year round with W Cosmetics Laneige Water Sleeping Mask, then add Aesop Protective Lip Balm SPF30 for day-long hydration, and MAC Lustreglass Sheer-Shine Lipstick, at Myer, for a pop of colour. The final touch is an effortless, airbrushed finish, courtesy of Hourglass Ambient Lighting Powder, available at MECCA.

Fragrance is an often overlooked element of cool-weather beauty. Switching your much-loved summer scents for woodier, earthier hues will make you feel delicious – and instantly elevate your look. Maison Francis Kurkdijan’s cult-status Baccarat Rouge 450 is the perfect winter fragrance, with its blend of jasmin, cedar wood, and saffron (available at Mecca). Yves Saint Laurent’s best-selling Libre Eau De Parfum is warm and woody, with base notes of vanilla extract and cedarwood oil, and top notes of lavender and orange flower. While at Incu, Comme des Garçons’ ‘Floriental’ EDP is a floral scent with a twist, with notes of classic wood and spices, mixed with plum, sandalwood and delicate notes of incense. With Oud Wood from Tom Ford, exotic rosewood and cardamom give way to a smoky blend of precious oud notes, sandalwood and vetiver. Tonka bean and amber add warmth and sensuality.
