Getting that perfect glow is a matter of dedication. With the right beauty routine and pampering, you can help your skin look its best.
Here are the latest skincare products to check out.
Honey-like texture
Aesop’s B & C Facial Balancing Gel has been a staple for the brand since its release 20 years ago.
A replenishing hydrator rich in vitamins B and C, the product helps even out the appearance of the skin with its unique honey-like texture that makes using it a singularly refreshing experience.
Ingredients include panthenol, a precursor to vitamin B5 and magnesium ascorbyl phosphate, a stabilised form of vitamin C.
This lightly hydrating treatment delivers potent doses of vitamins B and C and anti-oxidant fortification, imparting intense hydration as skin feels nourished and cooled with an embracing matte finish.

Ultra-rich cream
Drunk Elephant Bora Barrier Repair Cream is the brand’s thickest, richest cream yet.
This buttery, ultra-rich lipid cream is clinically proven to deliver deep, 24-hour moisture.
It also aims to help revive and restore dry and fragile skin by drenching it with a barrier-replenishing blend of ceramides, lipids, minerals, and potent antioxidant compounds.
The formula nourishes skin with glucosyl ceramides, soothing beta-sitosterols and zinc, and copper salt minerals to encourage the natural synthesis of healthy collagen, vital lipids and hyaluronic acid in skin.
All these ingredients promote elasticity, soothe the skin and support a healthy barrier function.
Apply one pump morning and night to clean, dry skin. Use it daily or in rotation with other moisturisers from the brand.
Balancing the skin’s microbiota
Bernard Cassiere Paris’s new line, Herbal Purity Care, targets adult acne using complex organic plant hydrolat composed of peppermint, sage and rosemary.
It also includes a combination of AHA and other active ingredients to help rebalance blemished skin’s microbiota.
The Herbal Purity Mask In Stick within the range is a purifying and mattifying combination to oily skin.
Its innovative stick format is a convenient way to apply the mask, without the mess.
The formula is made up of rosemary, sage and peppermint to purify, mattify and regulate sebum, while white clay and green clay from Puy-en-Velay (a town in southern France known for the green lentils grown in the area) absorb excess sebum production.
Nourishing and moisturising
Sigi Skin’s Idyllic Fields Moisturiser is meant to provide your skin with much-needed hydration for an extra radiant glow.
This enhanced formula features a meticulous blend of nourishing ingredients, including a 75% concentration of oats, known to calm inflammation instantly and fight against acne.
It also includes 3.7% heptyl undecylenate which retains moisture in deep layers of the skin throughout the day and 2% propanediol which holds up to 10 times more moisture than hyaluronic acid.

Improving elasticity
Freia Aesthetics’ K-beauty skincare label, Venn, was created with core science that focuses on developing a powerful “engine” for skincare formulations, aiming at optimising and delivering key nutrients and natural ingredients to the skin.
The Advanced Multi-Perfecting Red Oil Serum is a powerful multi-correctional face oil that visibly improves skin’s elasticity and firmness, and nourishes the skin with restorative moisture.
This potent serum uses as key active ingredients Lithospermum erythrorhizon (gromwell) and Angelica gigas (Korean angelica) root extracts that have been fermented for 150 hours at low temperature.
These ingredients are meant to improve absorption and amplify performance that instantly increase the skin’s radiance and improves the skin’s elasticity and firmness.
