The Luxury Skincare Buys Worth The Investment
Augustinus Bader
The Eye Cream, $225.00
The Multitasking Eye Cream
There's a lot of hype around Augustinus Bader The Cream and, don’t get us wrong it’s amazing, but The Eye Cream is next level. Whether you want to lift dark circles or soothe puffiness, this gel cream is a worthwhile investment. The TFC8 powered formula leaves the delicate eye area feeling bouncier and we noticed that our concealer goes on and stays in place for longer.
Révive
Moisturizing Renewal Cream Suprême Nightly Retexturizer, $195.00
The Overnight Skin Smoother
If you want a product that requires minimum effort on your part yet provides maximum results, look to ReVive Moisturizing Renewal Cream Supreme Nightly Retexturizer. Slather a thin layer of this rich creamy into your face and neck 20 minutes before your due to hit the hay and let the expert blend of glycolic acid and glycerin get to work. By the time you wake up, your skin will look and feel smoother, softer and brighter.
Sisley-Paris
Black Rose Cream Mask, $182.00
The Iconic Face Mask
Sisley-Paris Black Rose Mask is always worth the investment. The creamy formula melts into skin and transforms a dull, lacklustre complexion into a plumper, brighter one in less than 15 minutes. While the instructions recommend using two to three times a week, we’ve been known to swap this in for our usual day cream when temperatures plummet.
Dr. Barbara Sturm
Hyaluronic Serum, $325.00
The Hyaluronic Acid
There are hyaluronic acid serums and then there’s Dr. Barbara Sturm's Hyaluronic Acid Serum. With long and short chain molecules, you get deeper, long-lasting hydration. It also has Dr. Sturm’s signature ingredient, purslane, for an extra dose of hydration and to calm skin. A little goes a long way, so you’ll notice this bottle will last.
Medik8
r-Retinoate Intense, N/A
The Retinol Treatment
This is the ultimate retinol serum if you’re a vitamin A pro. Medik8 has formulated its r-Retinoate Intense to work 11 times faster and eight times stronger than regular retinol. It also contains copper peptide, squalane and hyaluronic acid to hydrate, nourish and strengthen skin.
111SKIN
NAC Y2 Recovery Mask, N/A
The Complexion Pick-Me-Up
When it comes to 111Skin a lot of people talk about the glow-boosting Rose Gold Booster, which is fabulous, but this mask is the formula we reach for every time our skin is in need of some TLC. Whether we've been burning the candle at both ends or have just got off a long-haul flight, this formula hydrates, nourishes and strengthens our skincare barrier. In our opinion, it deserves a spot in every bathroom cabinet.
Omorovicza
Queen Cream, $249.00
The Skin-Makeup Hybrid
This is one of those products that you have to try to understand just how good it is. While it's infused with nourishing oils that hydrate and plump skin, it doesn't feel heavy or greasy. It also has a nifty priming effect and blurs pores, fine lines and imperfections. If you have dry to combination skin and wear foundation most days, this will be genuinely game-changing for you.
Space NK
The Essential Luxury Skincare Box, N/A
The Essentials
From Dr. Barbara Sturm's Hyaluronic Serum and Natura Bisse's C+C Vitamin Cream to 111Skin's Vitamin C Brightening Booster and Kypris' Deep Forest Clay, not forgetting Omorovicza's Rejuvenating Night Cream, this box includes all of our favourite skin-boosting creams, serums and treatments. It's worth mentioning that buying these formulas separately would set you back £525.
