Cloud 9 Skin Solutions Tranquility

This is a terrible time of year for skin. Just terrible. And the colder it gets outside, the worst it gets. Gloomy? No, just realistic: central heating is the skin's worst enemy - making problems like eczema, psoriasis and dermatitis even worse, because it's even drier than usual.

This ultra-soothing Cloud 9 Skin Solutions Tranquility cream for dry, damaged skin is good news, though: a creamy-textured product which doesn't leave skin greasy, but offers immediate relief and nourishment, even to inflamed, red and scaly skin.

It has vitamin B12 as well as lashings of avocado oil, and can be used on face and body - and you might like to know that some celebrity facialists actually use it as a mask during treatments, on dry complexions.

We've tried slathering it on overnight, and skin's dewy, plumped and calm by morning - and we'll be keeping it within reach till the daffs are out.
