PHILOSOPHY Take a Deep Breath Eye They say:

A cooling eye gelcream featuring “clean-air technology” to boost oxygen levels to the eye area and revitalize skin. We say: Our tester tried this eye cream both day and night. The unscented lotion applied well and felt cool on the skin. A little goes a long way, and there is no tackiness on skin. While the product is targeted toward the 20-35 age group, our 60+ tester said her eyes looked subtly brighter and felt more hydrated. $42 | Sephora

ORIBE Radiant Drops Golden Face Oil They say:

A rich replenishi­ng oil from the brand Oribe (yes, the luxe hair care line) that features a concentrat­ion of 13 natural oils to soften skin, improve elasticity and prevent damage from environmen­tal aggressors such as pollution. We say: This luxe oil is thicker than some of the face options on the market, but it’s nonetheles­s very comfortabl­e to wear and absorbs well. Our tester used it in the day (it made a fabulous makeup base) and at night (doubled up on applicatio­n amount to act more like a mask). The overall effect was smoother skin that wasn’t greasy or weighed down. $126 | Holt Renfrew

VICHY Idéal Soleil Anti-Shine Dry Touch Lotion SPF 60

They say: A sunscreen that protects against both UVA and UVB rays, this “dry-touch” lotion is also sweat and water-resistant for up to 80 minutes. We say: Our tester tried this sunscreen before a full day of outdoor activities. The dry lotion is lightweigh­t and absorbs well. Even while sweating, it remains comfortabl­e on this skin. After a whole lot of (maybe too much) sun exposure, skin was free of redness or discolorat­ion. $28.95 | Vichy.ca
