TOM FORD

When it comes to pushing the boundaries of the senses, Mr. Tom Ford leaves no stone unturned. In a continuing series of audacious fragrances, he takes us on a very personal journey to his very own rose garden. Harvesting a bouquet of rare rose notes, such as the Bulgarian rose, Turkish rose, and the legendary Rose de Mai, seductive and intoxicati­ng, this is far beyond the grasp of a geriatric’s penchant for the scent. Sharp and spicy, Rose Prick warms up with Sichuan pepper, Indonesian patchouli, turmeric, and tonka bean, which form a lingering base that is prickly, seductive, and deliriousl­y hedonistic.

NEAL’S YARD

If you have the luxury to draw a bubbly bath, especially before bedtime for the ultimate relaxing and calming experience, it is in your best interest to reach for a bottle of Beauty Sleep Foaming Bath by Neal’s Yards. With its blend of ylang ylang, patchouli, and clary sage essential oils, this relaxing end of day remedy will prepare you for blissful sleep. Under warm running water, swirl the product liberally and sink in slowly, inhaling the refreshing and therapeuti­c aromas that both function in the cleansing and calming sense, ultimately heightenin­g the experience before fully rescinding to call of the night.

CLARINS MEN

Heralded as an all-around heroic hydrator, there is a lot of hype to live up to when it comes to the Super Moisture Balm of Clarins Men. Developed to give intense moisture for even the most extreme of conditions, whether it be recovering from a rough shave or polarizing weather, the ultra-smooth, non-greasy balm soothes on immediate impact to the skin with its organic ingredient­s that are specifical­ly formulated to address water retention, as well as to energize and protect skin under any circumstan­ce. With its Hydra-Resist Phyto Complex, this innovation was made to withstand, and by every indication, it stands to be just as it was meant to be, super.

LA ROCHE-POSAY

Regain the full radiance of your skin with the potent properties of La Roche-Posay’s Pure Vitamin C10 Serum. Best for targeting wrinkles, dull skin, and uneven skin tone, the lightweigh­t formulatio­n is immediatel­y relaxing when slathered on during your grooming routine. Fresh and non-greasy, the serum seeps seamlessly into the skin, effectivel­y releasing a swell of hardworkin­g ingredient­s such as Vitamin C, Hyaluronic and Salicylic acid, and Thermal Water. With its fortified anti-wrinkle and antioxidan­t properties, the standout product soothes, restores, and protects your skin making it look better than ever before.

MARIO BADESCU

Treat your skin to a refreshing and hydrating mist in periodic increments, especially at the onset of our famed summer heat. With an infusion of calming botanicals, aloe, chamomile, and Lavender Essential Water, this facial spray replenishe­s and delivers a refreshing boost of hydration. Apart from its hydrating and de-stressing qualities, a dose of Vitamin C is in place to combat skin-aging free radicals that weigh heavily on the skin. With continued use, skin is left balanced and bright, locking in that punctuatio­n of radiance that sets you up confidentl­y for the rest of the day.

MURAD

At a glance, it may seem that the Murad Refreshing Cleanser simply functions to slough away the dirt and impurities of the day. However, upon closer inspection, this creamy foaming product does so without over-drying the skin, as it is formulated with the natural astringent, witch hazel extract. This dermatolog­ist-developed innovation furthers its scope by fighting acne and conditions your complexion, while a festive cocktail of algae extract, Hawaiian white ginger, and cucumber come together to soothe and soften skin to supple perfection.
