'A body serum in a mist! Need I say more?' says Dubroff of Chanel's luxuriously scented head-to-toe hydrator, a lightweight antidote to parched winter skin. For make-up, her must-have tools include a foundation-blending brush, Lashify's Control Kit, which she swears is the key to 'life-changing lashes', and a balmy lipstick, which can be worn as a soft stain or built up to a bold pop of colour.
'It's the time of year when we need a reset and I believe self-care is an important part of this process,' Moss says. 'I begin each morning with meditation followed by my Dawn Tea as a gentle, uplifting start to the day.' Moss finishes her morning ritual with her Cosmoss Sacred Mist and face moisturiser ('It leaves my skin feeling supple with a soft focus finish'), then natural make-up and tousled hair for her signature look.
'Since having my second baby last year, I've been leaning towards quick hairstyles that are easy to maintain,' says Atkin. 'Sometimes it's just a matter of touching up my fringe using the Dyson Airwrap and embracing my natural texture.' To keep hair healthy, 'It all starts from within', with hydration and good nutrition.'If you're not treating your body well, your hair won't reach its full potential,' Atkin says.

Eldridge's beauty goal is to, 'Do less! In the last few years, I've been experimenting with skincare and 2023 is the year I'll streamline back to a simple regime that my skin loves.' On top of that, she'll be using her 'patchwork skin' technique - only applying foundation and concealer to the areas that need it. 'Buffing in thin layers for a long-lasting, naturally perfected look' and adding a slick of her lipstick in kitten mischief: 'The shade really does suit everyone.'
