Desperate to get your nourished glowing skin back after the long winter? Try these skincare and makeup products!
AERO AERATED SELF-TANNING FOAM, BONDI SANDS
$27
There is no beach in the world that provides an equally sexy bronzed glow! The ultra-lightweight innovative formula creates a long-lasting tan that also hydrates the skin. Forget those yucky orange fake tans, Bondi Sands looks absolutely natural and healthy. Oh, and that amazing coconut scent is definitely a great bonus!
PHOTO FOCUS FOUNDATION, WET N WILD
$12.99
It can take weeks to revive that natural glow. With the new Wet n Wild foundation, you won’t have to wait. It’s been tested under seven different types of light and with the cameras of different smartphone models and proved one important thing: you’ll look amazeballs! The matte, light-diffusing formula has been designed to adjust to your skin and keep you camera-ready anytime and everywhere.
GOLD DUST NIGHT TREATMENT POWDER, TAILOR
$59
Tailor has invented the most fun way to achieve a lighter, brighter, glowing skin – you basically create your own potion: mix Gold Dust with your moisturiser, apply to face and neck and leave overnight for instant collagen production and a cellular energy boost. Vitamin C reduces hyperpigmentation and fades scars; CoQ10 neutralizes free- radical damage. If that isn’t magic, we don’t know what is!
3 IN 1 REPAIR CARE HAND CREAM, NIVEA
$6.95
Because it’s not only your face that needs a fix-me-up after winter temperatures! Vitamin C in this hand cream repairs signs of damage, replenishes moisture levels and even protects against the sun with SPF15.
BELLĒ, QT
$109
If ‘we are what we eat’, we should all add this anti-ageing beauty powder to our diets immediately, because there’s no better way to bring radiance to your skin than from the inside. Among Bellē ingredients are Tremella mushroom (holds 400 times its weight in water and is extremely hydrating), Marine Collagen (improves elasticity, reverses wrinkles), Lotus (gives a brighter complexion) and Vitamin C (maximises the absorption of nutrients). Yum!
GLOW MASK, FRANK BODY
$24
Mecca Maxima’s bestseller, this mask for skin is what caffeine is for the brain (it even smells like a vanilla latte!) Pop it on in the morning for five minutes to get rid of puffiness, dullness and that pillow face. Glow mask leaves your skin fresh, moisturised and glowing!
DEWY STIX, CIATÉ LONDON
$41
A sheer wet-look glow is our favourite type of glow! Especially when it’s so easy to create: a quick glide of the luminous highlighting balm-in-a-stick on your cheekbones, brow bones and cupid’s bow, and you’re good to go! It’s not over-shimmery so the finish is very natural and perfect for daily makeup. Available at Mecca Maxima Bayfair.
THE PERFECTOR SOLID FACE CREAM, ETHIQUE
$45
Applying solid face cream is unlike most other skincare procedures. Warm up the bar between your hands first and then press the product onto your skin. You’ll need way less cream than you might expect! Each bar lasts around a month and there are three of them in a pack. It feels amazing to support a local zero-waste company while using a natural, healthy product.
