Here are some of our musthaves you will not regret adding to your beauty shelf.
1. Gucci The Alchemist’s Garden Where My Heart Beats Eau De Parfum, $570
Using alcohol from 100 per cent recycled carbon emissions, the formula reflects the Italian house’s eco-conscious ethos. It contrasts fresh, green violet leaf and white peony notes with a warm, sensual white musk base, resulting in a universally pleasant floral fragrance.
2. The History of Whoo Royal Regina Energetic Repair Serum, from $86
This hard-working serum is expertly formulated with fermented polysaccharides to offer the benefits of four different serums in one. It increases hydration levels, protects against oxidation, fortifies the skin barrier, and lifts skin.
3. Laneige Water Bank Blue Hyaluronic Intensive Cream, $63
Designed for sensitive skin, this hydrator is packed with the K-beauty brand’s proprietary blue hyaluronic acid (derived from deep sea algae) to enhance skin’s glow sans greasiness. Despite its rich balmy consistency, it effortlessly melts into skin to keep moisture locked in for up to 120 hours.
4. Fenty Beauty Eaze Drop Blur + Smooth Tint Stick, $53
Ease into your foundation-free makeup routine with this skin tint in stick form. With its buildable coverage and emollient texture, this skin-loving stick minimises the appearance of pores and blemishes, while evening out skin tone. Comes in 25 shades.
5. Pat McGrath Labs Mothership XI: Sunlit Seduction, $202
This versatile 10-pan palette features a variety of dusty pinks and chocolate browns in both matte and glitter finishes. Thanks to its buttery consistency and vibrant colour pay-off, you can apply the formula using just your fingers.
6. Bobbi Brown Face Base Vitamin Enriched Serum, $119
Just like the cult-favourite Vitamin Enriched Face Base, this primer-serum hybrid is laced with skinloving ingredients like Hydroglow Fruit Complex (a blend of watermelon and apple extracts, and cactus flower), acetyl glucosamine, vitamin C, and niacinamide to smooth over dry patches and even out the skin.
