SEASONAL DELIGHTS

FROM ENZYME MASKS TO ORGANIC FACE OILS, NOURISH YOUR SKIN WITH THESE LATEST COOL-WEATHER BEAUTY ESSENTIALS.

1. Feeling flat? Warm up your complexion with a hint of bronze with Natio Bronze Glow Perfecting Primer ($16.95 for 50g), which can be used under foundation, or on its own for a hint of colour. 2. Given six months to live with a brain tumour that doctors thought could be environmentally derived, Indie Lee got through her surgery successfully and decided to embark on a mission to educate people about what they are putting on their skin while launching her own range of clean, ethical products. Try Indie Lee Brightening Cleanser ($49 for 125ml) with strawberry seed and coconut oils, and Indie Lee COQ-10 Toner ($49 for 125ml) with antioxidants and flower and fruit extracts to calm and protect. 3. New Australian beauty company Ipsum is created in the beautiful Byron Bay hinterland using blends of nourishing organic oils for your face and body. Formulated for speedy absorption, Ipsum Best Skin Vetiver Citrus Body Oil ($35 for 100ml) and Ipsum Best Skin Nourishing Face Oil ($48 for 30ml) are rich in vitamins and antioxidants. Founder Janet Hayward explains the range only uses oils from plants that are cultivated in their natural habitat. “This is important as it ensures the oils offer the best possible benefits for skin,” says Janet. 4. Revolutionising make-up removal is Face Halo, an Australian-designed pad that only needs a dash of water to remove an entire face of make-up — even mascara. Face Halo Pro ($30 for 3) for thick or stubborn make-up, and Original ($30 for 3) use strands that are 100 times finer than human hair to swipe away make-up, and the reusable pads can be washed up to 200 times, so it’s great for your skin and the planet. 5. Not only does congested skin look dull, it also can’t absorb the products you apply on it. Change up your skincare regime by adding a pumpkinbased exfoliant like this Summer Fridays Overtime Mask ($67 for 64g) with vitamin- and mineral-packed pumpkin extract and apricot seed powder to reinvigorate your skin. 6. Another option to brighten your skin is the Peter Thomas Roth Pumpkin Enzyme Mask ($80 for 150ml). It exfoliates with pumpkin, peels with AHAS and polishes so your skin will be refreshed in a flash. 7. Long, luscious lashes are a simple swipe away with a nourishing eyelash primer like the latest Marc Jacobs Velvet Primer ($39 for 10ml) that you apply before your regular mascara to lengthen, thicken and define while also stopping your mascara from flaking. It can also be used as an overnight treatment to condition and soften lashes. 8. Youth To The People is a vegan skincare brand that harnesses the power of superfoods to keep your complexion happy and healthy. Treat your skin in this fragrance-free Adaptogen Deep Moisture Cream ($82 for 59ml) that’s healing, nourishing and calming on sensitive skin. 9. When one of the world’s top make-up artists launches a new line it’s a great excuse to update your beauty kit. Westman Atelier is the creation of Gucci Westman and showcases her make-up style, which is synonymous with healthy, radiant skin. The six-piece collection features easy-to-wear shades and luxurious textures. Our favourites include the Vital Skin Foundation Stick in Atelier 1 ($104) with buildable coverage and nourishing ingredients, and Baby Cheeks Blush Stick in Petal ($76) in pretty shades of pink, rose and peach that suit all skin tones.
