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.

$74 for 75 mL | Shoppers Drug Mart

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.

$115 | Holt Renfrew
