New Year, New Beauty

Get a fresh start! Keeping your beauty resolutions has never been easier; with remarkable new Vitamin C enriched skincare and beauty products, I show you everything you need to detox, rejuvenate and face 2018 afresh.

C + Collagen Brighten & Firm Vitamin C Serum, 30ml by Dr. Dennis Gross Skincare
iconRecharge fatigued skin with this Vitamin C enriched serum that helps support natural collagen growth and creates an overall radiant complexion. It’s also proven to enhance firmness and diminish the look of dark spots over time.

Vitamin C Nourishing Cleansing Balm, 60ml by Kat Burki
iconIf you take one thing with you while traveling, it should be this amazing cleansing balm. Saturated with a ton of nutrient-rich extracts, it works to repair signs of aging by brightening skin tone, increasing plumpness and replenishing moisture to prevent dryness. It also removes even the most stubborn of makeup and mascara without causing irritation.

Pure Vitamin C Powder Cream, 5 x 1.95g by Dr. Sebagh
iconA shot of energy for your skin, this nourishing set includes five vials of the purest and highest concentration of Vitamin C – the wonder weapon against aging. Personally speaking, I am addicted and like to mix it with my daily cream. The powder cream formula smooths imperfections and dramatically brightens and rejuvenates your skin.

C.E.O. C + E antiOXIDANT Protect + Repair Moisturizer, 50g by Sunday Riley
iconWhile road-testing Sunday Riley’s ‘C.E.O. C + E antiOXIDANT Protect + Repair Moisturizer’ a friend of hers asked for even more Vitamin C to be added. Luckily for us, the cosmetic chemist listened. Infused with an incredible amount of the anti-aging vitamin, this cream penetrates deep into the skin to restore radiance, soften fine lines and promote a youthful-looking complexion.

C+C Vitamin Scrub, 100ml by Natura Bissé
This citric-scented scrub is infused with gentle but effective exfoliants which smooth the surface of your skin. Its hydrating gel-like formula eliminates dead cells to reveal a radiant and clear complexion beneath. Perfect to get your glow back after all those party nights.

Let me introduce you to my latest beauty musts. It is all about roses…

1 Flora rose, iris and orange blossom scented candleicon by FORNASETTI
My first step of a beauty routine is the calming scent of a candle. This one I love. Its delicate aroma of white rose and jasmine, inspired by the Fornasetti gardens in Milan is divine. I like to keep the ceramic vessel to store jewelry and small trinkets.
