BEAM ME UP, SCOTTY

The skin’s natural reparative process is strongest at night, when the skin shifts from protect to recovery mode—which means it’s prime time for targeted products or those with nourishing ingredients. Enter Sigi Skin’s Youth Beam ($99), an anti-ageing serum that works on restoring the skin’s microbiome with a blend of prebiotics, probiotics and postbiotics. The skin’s microbiome is a colony of beneficial bacteria that forms its first line of defence against external aggressors and keeping it in balance can help improve skin barrier integrity. On top of that, there are antioxidants such as ginger and pine bark extracts to neutralise free-radical damage sustained during the day, and help improve skin elasticity and plumpness.
