Skincare guru Melanie Grant’s glow-getting secrets.

“I love avocado oil for the face, body, cuticles and hair, plus manuka honey for its incredibly calming properties. And I can’t be without bicarb soda – boxes of it. I always add it to my bath, along with Epsom salts, and like to mix it with my cleanser or cream masks to boost the efficacy.” 3. Extra Virgin Avocado Oil, $10.50,
GROVE, woolworths.com.au 14. Epsom Salts, $9.99, SANOFI, nationalpharmacies.com.au
“I like Sisley Black Rose Cream Mask for a nourishing boost, or the water-heavy, breathable Express Flower Gel Mask for instant hydration sans any oil. I use them both in the bath, relaxing with a gin and a magazine.” 4. Express Flower Gel Mask,

“When travelling, a hydration mist is essential. I also rely on an eye mask, which I apply all over my face, neck and chest and then leave it on.” 6. Mystic Hydrating Treatment, $62, COSMEDIX, 1800 648 851
“I apply a simple moisturiser at night to restore, nourish and hydrate my skin. I like to change it up depending on the season. I’ll also layer on a hydrating serum, depending on the climate.” 7.

“I always cleanse both morning and night. It’s the essential foundation to any good skincare regimen and prepares my skin to receive all of my serums, oils and hydrators. I drench a cotton pad and swipe micellar water over my face, neck, décolletage, shoulders and arms after cleansing with a cream or milk cleanser.” 9. Sensibio H20 Micelle Solution, $42.99, BIODERMA, priceline.com.au
