OLAY ULTRA MOISTURE BODY WASH

They say: Olay’s award-winning body wash gets an update thanks to “Lock-in-Moisture technology.” This body wash promises to deliver hydration without the feeling of a coating on skin.

We say: Our tester expected to feel residue with this product — especially with the promise of a “jar of moisturize­r in each bottle.” But she was pleasantly proven wrong. The formula suds away the day’s dirt, sweat and oil and leaves behind smooth and moisturize­d skin that felt soothed — even on the coldest winter day.

SAVVY TRAVELERS WIPES

They say: A line of personal care wipes for a wide array of uses — from Take Offz (for makeup removal) to In the Klear (to clean your tech device screens), Speak Eazy (to refresh teeth) and more — these California-made wipes are disposable and eco-friendly and don’t require any water.

We say: As the brand’s name would suggest, these wipes are perfect for travelling. Our tester tucked a few of the wipes — including the options for teeth, body and face — in her carry-on bag during a longhaul flight and was impressed with their convenienc­e and performanc­e. A few quick swipes of the wipe leaves you feeling fully refreshed and ready for the post-travel chaos of grabbing bags, finding transporta­tion, etc.

GUERLAIN ORCHIDÉE IMPÉRIALE THE CREAM

They say: More than a decade after the first Orchidée Impériale release, The Cream has been reinvented for a fourth time. The latest iterations purports to provide anti-aging properties such as radiance, fight hypoxia and boost cell energy. The product’s packaging is also designed to “limit its environmen­tal impact” with a 40-per-cent smaller box crafted from recycled materials, more lightweigh­t packaging and more.

We say: This product is luxury through and through. From the blue-and-gold packaging, to the soft cream inside, this release is a treat for the true skin-care connoisseu­r. Our tester tried this product for a week and was impressed with the almost instant results. Skin looked less tired, felt more smooth and appeared, as she put it, “all-around happier”.
