GENTLE VITAMIN C
If conventional L-ascorbic acid (vitamin C) is too much for your skin, Bon Elliot’s Hydrating Performance Serum uses AA2G, a stabilised form of it formulated to deliver antioxidant and brightening benefits; the formulation also contains the brand’s AMBR Complex of prebiotics, probiotics, ceramides and antioxidants. The result is a nourishing serum designed to boost luminosity and skin texture.

CLEAN, BUT NOT STRIPPED
Medik8’s Total Moisture Daily Cleansing Gel’s blend of gentle surfactants creates a soft, creamy lather that removes sunscreen, make-up and everyday grime without leaving your skin feeling tight. A prebiotic helps support the skin microbiome while moisture-binding ingredients maintain hydration.

NECK TIME
Despite being among the first areas to show signs of sun exposure, the neck and décolletage are often treated as an afterthought. Tronque’s Neck and Décolletage Elixir addresses this delicate area to support hydration and skin resilience. The serum-like texture absorbs quickly and is designed for morning and evening use.

WAKE-UP CALL
After months of cold weather, indoor heating and lower humidity, skin can look congested and dull. Hydrafacial is a 30-minute, non-invasive, in-salon treatment that combines cleansing, exfoliation, gentle suction and hydration before infusing the skin with targeted serums. Skin looks fresher, smoother and more hydrated.

BRIGHT-EYED
Dark circles are rarely one problem, which makes the category’s one-size-fits-all approach somewhat optimistic. This treatment targets the blue, brown and red tones that can contribute to tired-looking eyes, with vitamin C providing antioxidant and brightening benefits. The lightweight formula is particularly suited to mature skin, where thinning can highlight discoloration.

THE 15-MINUTE RESET
L’Occitane’s Immortelle Reset Overnight Serum Sheet Mask isn’t purely photogenic. Designed to be left on for just 15 minutes, it leaves skin hydrated and refreshed. Its hero ingredient, Corsican immortelle essential oil, is prized for its antioxidant properties and used here to target loss of firmness and elasticity. Use once a week as a reset.
