Most people’s happy place will be somewhere chilled, maybe in the country, a secluded beach, a place with no phone signal. Not me though – my sanctuary is the heart of the city where it’s all happening.

I am a country girl at heart, but spending so much time in New York, London ( of course Sydney!) and other awesome cities around the world has made me crave the hustle and bustle, the beeping taxis, late night shopping trips, marching through streets of skyscrapers, big events and even bigger parties, brunches that turn in to cocktails… you get my point – I’m a total city girl!

But one thing that doesn’t love the city is my skin…all that pollution and hidden UV rays play havoc with my face, and I have to seriously work at protecting it. So I was beyond thrilled to find out that one of my lifelong favourite skincare brand Elizabeth Arden has created a skin shield just for us city dwellers.

Prevage® City Smart is a skin shield to fight your corner in the big bad metropolis. This skin-saving product combines pollution-fighting ingredients with UV protection (because how many times do we forget to sunscreen when we’re in the city??) AND it’s anti-ageing,hydrating and strengthening. All too simple to use just add to the end of your skin regime, after moisturiser.

Easily the hardest working product in my handbag! I’m never leaving the house without applying!
