If your skin is oily or prone to breakouts, then you need this cleanser. The clean, fragrance-free formula with salicylic acid helps clear blemishes, the hydrating plant oils and grape water leave your face feeling clean and soft and the organic rose water helps to promote a healthy glow.

This gentle cleansing oil doesn’t require water, since jojoba, sunflower and non-palm vegetable oils do all the work – just swipe off with a cotton pad. “Perfect for all skin types, it does an excellent job of removing make-up and leaves skin feeling hydrated,” says make-up artist Amanda Ramsay.

“I love a good budget find and this cleansing balm is a beauty,” says Prevention beauty editor Cecily-Anna Bennett. “Ingredients including sweet almond oil, cacao seed butter and squalane help melt make-up away, leaving skin feel soft and nourished.” Apply to dry skin, massage for 30 seconds and then wipe away.

This exfoliating powder gently smooths with water-activated enzymes, balances uneven skin tone, thanks to a complex of phytic acid from rice bran, while a super-soothing colloidal oatmeal blend helps calm the skin. “The ingredients are exfoliating without stripping the skin,” says dermatologist Dr Eleni Yiasemides.  

“A simple, nourishing formula that feels great on the skin,” says Amanda. “I especially like the lightweight texture and the fact that it’s fragrance free.” Natural ingredients, including shea butter and vitamin E, are super hydrating and help strengthen the skin’s natural barrier.

This affordable moisturiser has hyaluronic acid and antioxidants for long-lasting hydration that keeps skin supple all day, plus the cooling gel is a pleasure to apply. “The oil-free, hypoallergenic and hydrating ingredients are suitable for people with acne- and rosacea-prone skin,” says Dr Yiasemides.

This three-in-one SPF, primer and moisturiser, featuring vegan collagen, is first-rate. It feels like skincare, shields like a sunscreen and contains vitamin C and amino acids for extra protection. Best part? The unique blend of iron oxides means zero whitecast!

Inside the incredibly opulent packaging is a hydrating toner packed with skin-loving and restorative elements that leave skin clear, smooth and softened. “It contains glycerine, vitamin C and niacinamide (or vitamin B3), ingredients known to hydrate and protect the skin,” says Dr Yiasemides.

“Moisturising ingredients such as vitamin C, niacinamide and glycerine improve hydration, which is important around the delicate eye area,” says Dr Yiasemides. “Vitamin C is especially effective around the eyes and can help with wrinkles, hydration and antioxidant protection.” Its light-reflecting micro-minerals minimise the appearance of dark circles, too.

Containing an effective trio of 15 per cent L-ascorbic acid (vitamin C), ferulic acid and vitamin E, this antioxidant-rich serum helps protect skin from the ageing effects of free radicals, while brightening, evening out pigmentation, protecting and hydrating. Perfect for normal to dry skin.

With its high concentration of niacinamide, also known as vitamin B3, and other powerful active ingredients, this serum penetrates deeply to hydrate skin from within, locking in moisture beneath the skin’s surface, while also gently fighting the signs of ageing and evening out skin tone.

If you have pigmentation or dull skin, you’ll love this silky serum, which really does improve your natural radiance and dial down uneven skin tone. The hero ingredient? Viniferine (from grapevine stalks), which Dr Yiasemides says is a potent antioxidant, similar to vitamin C.

“Hyaluronic acid is an important ingredient for daily use that can seriously boost the skin’s hydration,” says Dr Yiasemides. This beautifully lightweight serum not only rehydrates and redensifies, but also tackles dry, rough, dull or irritated skin. The result? Plump skin that looks as good as it feels.

Wake up looking radiant with this clever mix of 10 per cent alpha-hydroxy acids and 10 per cent polyhydroxy acids (these penetrate more slowly into the skin and thus don’t exfoliate as strongly as AHAs), which work together to re-texturise, smooth and brighten your skin while you sleep.

“It’s a sign of the times that this product even exists, but I’m glad it does,” says Cecily. Spritz this antibacterial spray a few times into your face mask before putting it on. Peppermint oil ensures mask-wearing feels minty-fresh and anything that keeps acne-causing bacteria at bay is a good thing.   

A potent hyaluronic acid serum that boosts hydration both on and beneath the surface of your skin. Containing niacinamide (to improve skin defences and help clear the skin) and ceramides (to soften and support the skin’s protective layer), it sinks in instantly and feels silky smooth. 

Studies show that retinol and bakuchiol (a plant-based retinol alternative) work more effectively together and this serum contains both, which, along with peptides, help stimulate collagen, boost cell turnover and smooth lines. “Most clinical prescriptions of retinol are 0.05%, so 0.3% retinol is quite potent,” says Dr Yiasemides.

Rich, luxurious and super nourishing, this cream replenishes moisture and lipids in the skin, leaving your face feeling smooth and deeply hydrated. It also provides deep delivery of actives from Jurlique’s advanced Biosome6 system, to help reduce the signs of ageing.

This highly anticipated new arrival on Aussie shores really does live up to the hype. The booster serum, which plumps the skin and effectively stimulates collagen, is clinically proven to soften lines and wrinkles in as little as one week.

Formulated with blue lotus, lactic acid and carnosine to purify, hydrate and brighten skin, this exceptional cleanser is both exfoliating and hydrating – an excellent combination that leaves your skin feeling soft and smooth. “AHA cleansers are very good for oilier skin types,” says Dr Yiasemides.

“I’m so enamoured with this plant oil blend, which includes jojoba, macadamia seed, camellia, grape seed, apricot kernel and avocado,” says Cecily. “It sinks in without feeling oily, leaving skin feeling instantly plumper.” Intensely nourishing and super tightening, it helps skin look more defined and supple.

Fifteen minutes is all you need to hydrate and depuff with ingredients including peptides, vitamin B3 and caffeine. “I use these on my clients before I do their make-up,” says Amanda. “They’re very effective at smoothing and hydrating the delicate under-eye area.”

Enriched with moisturisers, this affordable soap-free cleanser for sensitive skin works a treat all over. It helps to maintain the skin’s protective properties and doesn’t strip away natural oils, and its slippery, silky-smooth texture makes it perfect for shaving your legs.

It contains 30% magnesium which works wonders on sore muscles, as well as other nourishing ingredients including almond, apricot and coconut oils and shea butter, to leave you feeling silky smooth.

Made with natural pearlescent minerals, and utilising the hydrating properties of organic coconut oil, this lightweight, fast-absorbing oil moisturises your skin as it imbues you with a subtle golden glow. Perfect for giving your legs and shoulders a chic, summer polish.   

“When you use fake tan, moisturisers and oils can break down the tan, whereas serums don’t,” explains Amanda. “That’s why I was excited by this product, as it’s light, it soaks into the skin easily and it’s incredibly hydrating and nourishing.”

For frequent handwashing, a nourishing hand soap is essential. We love this pump pack with its unique and zesty Australian Lemon Ironbark scent and conditioning plant oils that leave skin feeling soft and protected.

Not only does this leave-in treatment protect your hair from humidity and frizz, it also works wonders on texture. Whether you want sleek, glass-like shine or smooth, glossy volume, spray this on before blow-drying for results that last for up to three washes.

Exfoliating your scalp helps to eliminate product residue that can lead to hair loss, and this scrub wins on all counts for its texture and efficacy. Its secret weapon?

This treatment leaves hair feeling exceptionally soft and strong, alleviating dryness without generating any residue. “This has some really nourishing ingredients including raw shea butter, which is deeply moisturising,” says Sue. Plus, mineral-rich sea kelp helps to seal and smooth hair cuticles.

Caffeine, one of the key ingredients in this spray, has been found to stimulate growth of the hair follicles.
