If you are looking for a new skin care brand to try may I recommend Sepai."Sepai has announced the launch of its new ELIXIR Line of Serums, available on Amazon's new Luxury Beauty Channel. The four new potent serum formulas use skin cell training ingredients designed to penetrate at the cellular level and treat specific skin conditions. The new line includes: LIGHT CIRCLES eye serum, for persistent dark under eye circles; DE-PUFF EYES eye serum, which targets under eye bags due to fluid retention or fat accumulation;SUBLIME YOUTH anti-ageing facial oil, which treats dull skin, extreme dryness, visible signs of ageing, lack of vitality; andCOUNTER-CLOCKWISE face serum, which combats the appearance of wrinkles, open pores, dark spots, blackheads and lack of vitality. Each product comes with a Stabilised Vitamin C Booster (which accounts for 5% of the formula) to shake into the formula, meaning the skin directly absorbs the antioxidant powerhouse while it’s still at its most active; helping protect skin cells and structure, preventing premature ageing and UV-damage, and reducing lines and wrinkles."Prices £58-£62.
As a huge fan of both Laura Mercier and contouring this is right up my alley "Beauty brand Laura Mercier has announced the launch of its Flawless Contouring Palette (£35), which comprises a selection of neutral shades in a darker range to sculpt the face. Designed to define and highlight the facial features, the palette contains three neutral brown matte crémes for shading and two créme highlighters (light and dark) for light reflection. The contouring kit also includes Laura's step-by-step tutorial guide and quick fix tips. Additionally, the brand has unveiled its Infusion de Rose Collection, comprising of a Nourishing Oil (£43.50) and Nourishing Créme (£55). The oil is a restorative blend of natural, skin-conditioning super-oils and works to rejuvenate the skin while strengthening the moisture barrier and protecting the skin against environmental aggressors. The light-weight cream hydrates and restores natural radiance and softness and contains extracts of mango and shea butter to moisturise and condition the skin, while a complex of vitamins work as natural antioxidants to protect against free radicals and combat signs of premature ageing. The Flawless Contouring Palette is available this month exclusively to Harrods and Urban Retreat, before its roll out nationwide in February; while the Infusion de Rose Collection is exclusive to Harrods this month and also hits stores nationwide in February."
