Brightened and balanced

For Vanity Fare this week, we look at vitamin C in a gel that helps brighten skin, oils from a precious pink berry that tones and a bi-phase serum that deeply nourishes skin.

Hydrate and nourish

Did you know that your skin is the last organ to receive nutrients you consume? This means it’s the last to get water you sip, according to Fresh. So, in addition to drinking plenty of water, the use of products developed specifically for dehydrated skin can be helpful.

The new Fresh Rose Deep Hydration Oilinfused Serum is a next-gen bi-phase serum that feeds your skin with the precise ratio of water and oil to deeply hydrate and nourish the skin.

The weightless, fast-absorbing, non-comedogenic formula has two potent phases: water - which comprise of rosewater and damask rose extract to help soothe and hydrate skin, and oil – a blend of botanical oils (rose flower, camelina, rosehip and squalene) that nourishes and softens the skin.

Radiant, brighter skin

Known for its vitamin C Brightening Essence in Japan, Melano CC – a Japanese skincare brand by Rohto Mentholatum – has introduced a new vitamin C Brightening Gel.

Formulated with vitamin C, fruit extracts and Deep Penetration Technology, the Melano CC Vitamin C Brightening Gel brightens dull skin, evens out skin tone and fights dark spots.

It also helps to lighten pimple marks and minimises pores while keeping your skin hydrated.

Infused with vitamin C and E, this gel lightens dark spots and reduces redness, while Deep Penetration Technology includes high-stability and high concentration properties to help ensure full absorption of its derivatives into the skin.

Next level hydration

Achieving fresh and balanced skin starts with hydration, according to Bobbi Brown. The Bobbi Brown Hydrating Water Fresh Cream stabilises dehydrated and stressed skin, by drenching your skin with next-level hydration.

Its hydrating super complex, made up of eight key ingredients, including hyaluronic acid, delivers instant moisture.

Probiotic technology strengthens skin’s moisture, fermented clary sage and red algae soothes and calms skin, while winter rose helps smooth skin so that skin is always makeup ready.

This is the brand’s first silicone-free moisturiser and an oil-free cream. This moisturiswith ing cream repairs and strengthens skin’s moisture barrier.

Pink oil power

On Reunion Island,

Melvita discovered pure, pink gold in the form of berries of the Brazilian pepper tree. The oil extracted from pink berries help to prevent the expansion of adipocyte lipid droplets and by facilitating the breakdown of fat in adipocytes, this helps to reduce the appearance of dimpled skin.

Tapping the oil extracted from these pink berries along with 50% of black pepper in its ingredients, the new Melvita L’OR Rose Firming Oil, which is easily absorbed, helps skin look smoother and toned.

This cellulite-buster also offers a powerful sensorial experience through a refreshing scent of pink berries and is certified organic with 100% natural ingredients. The complete range includes the L’OR Rose Icy Refining Gel and the L’OR Rose Refining Scrub.
