future classics

These products have endured past being the ‘next big thing’ to become true skincare staples

Charlotte Tilbury Charlotte’s Magic Cream, £49

When Charlotte Tilbury needed something to perk up the skin of tired models backstage at Fashion Week, she created her own ‘magic’ cream. The formula helped reanimate the discussion that good skincare really is the first step in your make-up routine.

Dior Capture Totale Super Potent Eye Serum, £59

Benefiting from the two decades of research that already powers Dior’s Capture Totale range, as well as the latest studies into nine signs of ageing that are specific to the eye area, this serum makes light work of the appearance of fatigue, fine lines and crepiness.

Elemis Pro-Collagen Naked Cleansing Balm, £44

The latest ‘Naked’ version of Elemis’ balm-tomilk cleanser is sure to become as popular as the rose-scented original. The no-fragrance option and slippy texture make this a repeat purchase for anyone with sensitive skin.

Augustinus Bader the Rich Cream, £205

No recent face-cream launch has had the beauty industry abuzz quite like Bader. Backed by 30 years of research (and the patented TFC8 skin-repair molecule), it has a brilliant ability to give your skin exactly what it’s asking for – whether that’s soothing irritation or reviving a tired complexion.

Vintner’s Daughter Active Botanical Serum, £175

This is the facial oil that convinced even those who hate facial oils that their regimes were incomplete without one. Packed with 22 botanicals designed to tackle the inflammation and imbalances that cause uneven texture and tone as well as blemishes, this is the secret to a (non-greasy) lit-from-within glow.
