Gentle effective cleanser
As cream cleansers go, Linden Leaves Skin Refining Cream Cleanser, $40, is up there with the best.

Applying sunscreen isn’t a chore with Me Today’s Natural SPF30, $40. The gorgeous subtle fragrance and light texture makes it easy to apply without leaving the skin feeling clogged or chalky. Foundation glides easily over the top of it of too. It’s enriched with botanicals, antioxidants and vitamins while providing UVA and UVB protection. metoday.com
Spot gone
Treat pesky pimples with Evolu’s Triple Action Spot Crisis Control Gel, $30. This targeted alcohol-free formulation contains naturally effective anti-microbial and skin-calming actives that help reduce the appearance of blemishes without irritating the skin. evolu.com
Jelly exfoliator
We’re not big fans of scrubbing the skin so we’re in love with Trilogy’s new Triple-Action Jelly Exfoliator, $44, which reimagines rosehip oil into a jelly base with a three-layered biodegradable exfoliating mechanism. Jojoba wax spheres, bamboo stem powder buffs and super-fine powdered pumice combined with nourishing mānuka honey and cooling aloe vera. trilogyproducts.com
Oil-infused beauty
Moroccanoil’s new All in One Leave-in Conditioner, $58.95, is a multi-tasking, lightweight spray for all hair types that instantly detangles and hydrates hair, leaving it soft and nourished for up to 72 hours. The argan oil enriched formula helps protect against breakage and thermal damage. moroccanoil.com/au
We heart
It’s hard to choose a favourite amongst the Dear Heart
collection of
handmade soaps
but we’ve settled on Turkish Delight as a firm fave. Made with pure essential oils and coloured naturally, they also each contain a hidden heart soap, which appears as the soap begins to wear down. Swoon!

Midnight magic
Glamorous simplicity is international make-up artist Michelle Devereux’s skin philosophy, which is why she’s produced a capsule collection of skincare essentials called The Edit. It includes wonder product The Edit Midnight Magic Luxury Night Oil, $145 (30ml), which is a blend of 11 super-oils (including camellia seed and cannabis sativa seed oil) to restore, calm and balance skin overnight. theeditcosmetics.co.nz
