Organic Surge Eye Gel is a little gem I picked up in Waitrose. It feels really soothing on the skin and instantly reduced puffiness. It has green tea to rejuvenate the skin around the ideas and of course, it's paraben free. No sodium lauryl or laureth sulphate either - and it's only £7.99. Organic Surge do a full range of cleansers, moisturisers, shower gels, hand creams - men's stuff too. Enjoy!

Afterglow is an organic and paraben-free make up range that has been really highly-rated in safety tests. The company's aim is to bridge the gap between natural and high-fashion cosmetics so you get something that gives good results, but it's eco-friendly too.

If you are anti-chemicals you will love REN's Citrus hand cream. It is paraben, fragrance, silicon and sulphate free, but does contain prebiotics to protect and stimulate the skin against bacteria. So as well as keeping your hands hydrated during the winter months, the lovely Sicilian lemon oil makes them smell lovely too.

Buying safe, paraben-free skincare and cosmetics doesn't have to be expensive. Nspa Beauty Rituals is a brand new range of Spa-inspired skincare products, exclusively available at Asda. It was created by experts at Nirvana Spa but the prices are really affordable. It's like having a facial at home! The entire collection is Dermatologically approved, Paraben free, and suitable for all skin types, even sensitive skin

I like the Hot Cloth Polish - just £5 for 100ml - that is specially formulated to cleanse and exfoliate skin. This is a more affordable version of the famous and award-winning Liz Earle product. Enjoy!

If your skin has had a bit too much sun for this time of year, try Decleor's High Repair After Sun balm for the face. This lovely product is 100% natural and preservative free. It soothes any burning sensations caused by the sun, nourishes the skin and prevents early peeling. Enjoy!

Clinique Moisture Surge is £30 but I think it's worth every penny. It's a light cream/gel that hydrates your skin for a full 24 hours. It helps get rid of fine lines and made my skin feel vibrant. It's paraben free - not all of Clinique's products are - and it's especially great for problem skin. Take a look at some of the reviews on the Clinique website to see how much people love this product.

Today I'd like to recommend Burt's Bees Beeswax and Banana hand cream. It's all natural and contains aloe vera and Vitamin E to moisturise dry skin - and beeswax to help shield your hands from the elements. The smell of banana is delicious! It's £9.99 at burtsbees.co.uk.
