With a moisture-boosting blend of hyaluronic acid, purified pomegranate extract and organic argan oil, over time skin looks healthier, brighter, and more refined.
It is also clinically proven to hydrate skin for up to 24 hours – ideal for those harsh winter evenings – whilst purified pomegranate extract helps to restore the natural flow of water in the skin, prepping it to better absorb serums and moisturisers, improving their performance.

This face cleanser washes away effortlessly, leaving your skin feeling nourished and silky, and never strips it of its natural oils.
Lancôme Absolue Revitalizing Anti-Aging Eye Cream
Revive your eyes with Lancôme’s Absolue PC Eye Cream, an anti-ageing eye treatment that works to visibly diminish signs of ageing around the delicate eye area for brighter looking eyes.
Utilising a high performance blend of Rose extracts and Pro-Xylane, the cream delivers a hydrating veil that helps to smoothen the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles whilst relieving puffiness and lending the eye contour a firmer, smoother look. Energising fatigued skin, this winning formula will leave your eyes looking brighter, moisturised and visibly refreshed.
FOREO’s SERUM SERUM SERUM Firming Serum
Foreo’s ‘Serum Serum Serum’ is a potent mixture that nourishes and hydrates skin, helping your skin look more youthful and hydrated. Hyaluronic acid, which can hold up to a thousand times its weight in water, is harnessed in the product to provide intensive hydration and a moisture barrier, resulting in a more supple and fresh face.
This mixture, which is high in antioxidants, helps your skin naturally defend itself against environmental aggressors including UV rays and pollution. The serum itself is a lightweight formula that may be easily absorbed by the skin to revive and repair its appearance.
Paula’s Choice Skin Perfecting 2% BHA Liquid Exfoliant
When the breakout hits, this Skin Perfecting 2% BHA Liquid Exfoliant from PAULA’s CHOICE is an essential in your skin care armoury. Ideal for blemish-prone, oily or combination types, this non-abrasive formula is laced with BHA salicylic acid to remove dead skin cells both on the skin’s surface and within the pore. Combined with its anti-inflammatory properties, this helps to reduce blemishes and blackheads for a more clarified complexion.
Aiding salicylic acid in its blemish-clearing mission, methylpropanediol enhances absorption so you can get the most out of each and every ingredient, while simultaneously boosting hydration levels, and green tea extract delivers a hefty dose of antioxidants to soothe and protect.
FOREO Ultra-Hygienic Silicone Sonic Toothbrush
An electric toothbrush but not as you know it. FOREO’s Ultra-Hygienic Silicone Sonic Toothbrush marks a new era in oral care as it targets your teeth, gums, tongue and cheeks, all while looking beautiful on top of your bathroom sink.
100% waterproof, both the brush and the head are created from medical-grade, non-porous, quick-drying silicone. Even the bristles are made from silicone, which means they are more hygienic and longer-lasting than traditional nylon bristles. It also means that the head needs to be changed just every six months. The battery of this toothbrush also lasts a whopping 365 days and requires just two hours of charge time to be fully juiced up. Alongside targeting the plaque on your teeth and gums, the back of the head features concentric ridges to gently scrub your tongue and cheeks – plus there’s 16 speeds and intensities for a truly tailored clean.
OLAPLEX No.7 Bonding Oil
Following in the footsteps of the cult classic Olaplex No. 3 Hair Perfector, the No. 7 Bonding Oil is nothing short of a styling essential. Delivering a hefty dose of TLC to dry, damaged and dull lengths, this highly concentrated golden oil stars a patented active ingredient that works on a molecular level to repair broken bonds (caused by chemical, thermal and mechanical damage), restoring your lengths to their former glory. It’s also perfect for taming and controlling frizz and flyaways, this oil grants instant softness, enviable shine and vibrant colour.
Vieve Lip Dew
Bridging the gap between a lip oil and a gloss, the exclusive Lip Dew from VIEVE comforts and softens dry lips, all while casting a non-sticky, reflective sheen to rival your go-to lip lacquer.
Simultaneously comforting and caring for lips as well as enhancing your natural lip colour, this luscious treatment glides effortlessly over your lips to achieve a high-shine effect that doesn’t feel sticky in the slightest. Powered by good-to-skin ingredients, the nourishing formula is infused with raspberry seed oil extract (a powerful anti-inflammatory ingredient) and detoxifying green tea extract, which’s known to soothe dryness and soften chapped lips. In short, expect an enviably glossy finish and a supple, soft pout.

The handy blush brush feels fluffy and soft to the touch as it glides like a dream across cheeks for a long-lasting, comfortable wear that appears highly translucent. Choose from a range of 10 versatile shades. Whichever shade takes your fancy, the infusion of small pearl pigments is sure to amp up your glow and let your natural radiance shine through.
