Beauty intel: Crabtree & Evelyn, DCS, L’OCCITANE

FLORAL WONDER. As the delicate area around the eyes is often prone to fine lines and wrinkles, one should never become complacent with one’s eye care regime. Which is why the new Damask Rose Restoring Eye Cream from Crabtree & Evelyn could be what you are looking for. Its blend of French damask rose, rose of Jericho and hollyhock, along with hyaluronic acid, helps hydrate and soften the delicate skin under the eyes. To boot, the metal applicator offers a cooling and soothing effect. S$50, available at all Crabtree & Evelyn outlets.

BERRY NUTRITIOUS. Craving skin that is petal fresh, youthful and dewy without breaking the bank? Try NUTRIDERM, an affordable anti-ageing skincare range from DCS. Hypoallergenic and gentle, the four products — The Ultra Nutrition Toner (S$33.50), Ampoule (S$53), Day Cream (S$41) and Night Cream (S$41) — are formulated with a blend of premium ingredients such as the rare Korean ginseng berry (which is harvested once every four years over a seven-day period) and Jeju’s volcanic seawater (for its reparative and regenerative properties) to help keep fine lines and signs of ageing at bay. Available exclusively at selected Watsons stores.

SOOTHING SOLUTIONS. Is your skin (and mood) in dire need of some relaxation and rejuvenation? Treat yourself to L’OCCITANE’s new Aromachologie Rebalancing Line of products, which promise to awaken your senses and bring a sense of well-being and harmony to the body and mind. Standouts include the Rebalancing Exfoliating Shower Gel (S$33) that is made with purifying essential oils and the Rebalancing Massage Cream (S$69), which is great for stimulating microcirculation and re-oxygenation of the skin. Available at all L’OCCITANE outlets.
