LA PRAIRIE White Caviar Creme Extraordinaire They say:
A luxury face cream that features brightening ingredients to fade age and dark spots. Skin is firmed and moisturized, the texture refined. Visible results in four weeks.
We say: This product is divine. Our tester, who is a self-described skin care aficionado in her 60s, was impressed with the performance of this moisturizing cream. Used in the morning and night after cleansing and toning, the cream absorbs well into the skin. Within days, she noted a reduction in the appearance of shadows for an overall brightened, healthy look. $900 | Nordstrom; Holt Renfrew
HUGO Urban Journey eau de toilette They say:
A new take on the iconic Hugo men’s cologne, this elixir features a modern mix of notes including Himalayan Whorlflower, black tea, greens and a woody base.
We say: This scent update packs a nice punch. It’s modern and masculine without being too overpowering or, well, expected. Our tester enjoyed the unexpected notes of green and black tea, which served to make this scent feel lighter than some muskier men’s offerings.

CHANEL Le Blanc Healthy Light Creator Mask They say:
An overnight face mask that delivers three benefits: revitalization, brightening and hydration. We say: If you haven’t already got into the overnight face-masking trend, it’s high time you did. This formula delivers a powerful punch of skin-boosting benefits while you sleep. A small amount of the cream goes a long way, smoothing over skin and settling in without leaving a goopy mess on the surface. In the morning, skin looks noticeably more hydrated and bright.
