Having clear skin is not enough, it seems. The latest beauty trend calls for everyone to really shine with a complexion that is luminous and supple.
The secret to achieving it? Moisturisation, UV protection and removal of external stressors.
Glass skin glow
Eucerin’s Even Radiance range includes the Water Gel Moisturiser, a fast-absorbing product that brightens, hydrates and rejuvenates the skin for more dewy, radiant and glowing skin in just two weeks.
Clinically proven, the moisturiser shows up to a 90% increase in skin brightness and 91% increase in skin glow, and is endorsed by South-Korean actress Jongseo Jun (picture), who attended the launch in Malaysia.
This product features niacinamide and licorice extract, a potent antioxidant that neutralises free radicals induced by UV rays, environmental and lifestyle factors to reduce dull-looking skin.
It also helps with skin dullness by inhibiting the effects of UVB induced skin damage and accelerate healing at a cellular level for brighter skin.

Correcting eight signs of ageing
Ten years of genetics research have given Caudalie a new discovery: an enzyme, named TET (Ten-Eleven Translocation) which claims to enable skin ageing to be reversed.
A unique pharmaceutic active ingredient capable of boosting this TET enzyme comes in the form of Honokiol, from magnolia and obtained by eco-extraction.
The result is the Premier Cru The Cream, which corrects eight signs of ageing: deep wrinkles, fine lines, firmness, volume, elasticity, dark spots, hydration and radiance.
The active ingredients combined with TET8 technology are dark spot-correcting Viniferine; grape seed polyphenols, natural origin hyaluronic acid and tightening sugars.
