ALL GOOD THINGS

A blend of 15 skin-transforming oils, this game-changer absorbs instantly and nourishes for 24 hours. I tried it out on my horribly dry hands and loved the gorgeous aroma, reminiscent of a spa treatment, along with how soothing the ingredients were. I particularly liked the spray application, which is great for use on the body, rather than the pump you usually find with oils. – Kelly Andrews CBD Packed with antioxidants it fights dryness and free radical damage.

Embryolisse Cicalisse Restorative Skin Cream £8.99, www.feelunique.com

HYALURONIC ACID Helps skin to retain moisture and increase cell production, thus reducing fine lines and wrinkles for a plumping and smoothing effect. This restorative cream treats skin on the body or lips so I was eager to see the results. I’ll admit to being surprised by the warm, spiced and woody fragrance that met me when I opened the tube, and after just two applications, my lips had stopped cracking and felt silky smooth. Emboldened by this success, I tried treating the dry sections on my face. The product soaked in straight away and left skin dewy after just five minutes. I’m pleased to report that I’ve found my new emergency moisturiser! Bonus – it’s cruelty free too. – Beth Morton

Youth To The People Superfood Cleanser £31, 237ml, www.cultbeauty.co.uk SUPERFOODS Rich in nutrients, essential fatty acids and vitamins when used in skincare they simultaneously soothe, moisturise, cool, repair and protect.

I must admit, I wasn’t quite sure what to expect from a cleanser containing kale, spinach and green tea, but it certainly sounded intriguing. It smells surprisingly gorgeous and feels wonderfully refreshing. The foaming texture left my skin super-clean, but hydrated without that tight dry feeling you sometimes get after cleansing. Plus, with its barrage of power-ingredients I can’t help but feel that it must be doing wonders for my skin’s overall health! – Olivia Gibson REN Clean Skincare Ready Steady Glow Daily AHA Tonic £27, 250ml, www.renskincare.com

AZELAIC ACID Brightens skin tone and improves texture, as well as reducing blemishes and areas of uneven pigmentation.

This tonic, which is best used in place of your toner step, feels gentle enough on the skin to use daily, with just a little tingle. It may seem tame, but it’s a hard-hitting product with exfoliating and brightening properties. I could feel straight away that my skin felt stimulated and my complexion was left looking more even with a healthy glow. I can’t wait to see the results from prolonged use. – Olivia Gibson

Bioderma Hydrabio Gel-Crème £15.50, 40ml, www.lookfantastic.com

This light moisturiser is perfect for my sensitive skin. I loved the gel-like consistency, which absorbed quickly and left my skin feeling nourished and refreshed. I applied at night and in the morning as it makes for a great base before make-up due to its primer-like qualities. A must for pre-wedding and on-the-day skincare routines. – Danielle Harvey
