THE FUTURE IS BRIGHT

Sometimes you’re at a dinner party and when you tell the guests across the table from you about Niche Beauty they tend to say –smiling, leaning slightly forward – “Niche Beauty? I looooooove Niche Beauty!” It is moments like these that truly count.

From its very beginning, Niche Beauty has been a reliable destination for exquisite brands and products, unavailable anywhere else. It is this legacy we took on from the brand’s founders and embraced it with both hands. We remain dedicated to the finest selection of international beauty companions that truly deliver a punch – from the latest must-try trends to the all-time classics. But we’re also here to make Niche Beauty about the customers and put them at the center of everything we do. Committed to quality, transparency, excellence and the brand’s signature luxuriously elegant DNA we want Niche Beauty to be more than just an online shop. We want it to be a lifestyle.

We made this magazine to leave you with the most important tricks and tips for the Summer ahead, from the must-have nail trends to ingredients you should consider including into your skincare routine. We’re also decoding TikTok trends, testing the so-called “Skin Cycling” in pursuit of flawless complexion and talking to experts to see what in-office beauty treatments are all the rage (and what you can do if you can’t make it to your dermatologist’s office).

We’re excited and humbled to be at the helm of such an amazing brand and hope this issue will leave you with a healthy dose of inspiration and optimism.

LUXURY, CURATED

Anne Zimmermann is a beauty connoisseur at heart. In her new role as Managing Director at Niche Beauty (a position she took on alongside Steven Mattwig in January of this year), she not only plans to make Niche Beauty a global success with its strictly selective, strictly luxurious portfolio, but also to inspire, share and empower. Come on closer and meet her behind the scenes.

What does your morning routine look like?

Quiet mornings are my ultimate luxury and I truly try to stick to a steady routine. As per a well-established wellness trend I start most of my days with a glass of warm lemon water that goes handin-hand with The Nue Co.’s Nootro Focus supplement, designed to heighten mental clarity and sharpen the focus. If time allows, I’ll go for a 30 minute run, hop in the shower and treat myself to some extra T.L.C. I love Aesop’s Geranium Leaf Body Cleanser and Oribe’s Gold Lust Repair & Restore shampoo and conditioner duo. After that I’ll always (And I mean always!) use Dr. Barbara Sturm’s Anti-Aging Body Cream that soaks in quickly, leaving my skin totally nourished and supple. When I’m done getting ready

I make myself a big cup of oat milk coffee that keeps me company while I open the mailbox and start answering emails.

What’s your favorite way to unwind after a long day?

Never underestimate the therapeutic power of a glass of red wine in a company of good friends, I say. When in Düsseldorf, you’ll find me at Prinzinger by Saittavini or at Bar Olio. If I’m in Hamburg, I’ll grab a salad at Henriks, a Spicy Salmon Roll at Jin Gui in Tortue hotel or a plate of dim sum at Uzwei. But if I’m in the mood for a quiet evening, I’ll fill my tub to the rim and turn on some music. I recently got into Eagles and their Hotel California, which is so melodic, relaxing and a forever classic. I’ll also light a luxurious scented candle (Byredo’s Bibliothèque is my favorite)

and then have a calming cup of tea – I am currently obsessed with WelleCo’s Sleep Welle Calming Tea, it’s so soothing. Trust me, you sleep like a baby after this at-home treatment!

What’s on your bathroom top shelf?

Dr. Barbara Sturm’s Enzyme Cleanser and Deep Hydrating Face Mask – both are fully responsible for that glow on my face. I also can’t live without U Beauty’s The Super Hydrator – never has my skin been more deeply moisturized and overall happy. Makeup-wise I’m a proud Westman Atelier addict. I’ll always have the brand’s Super Loaded Tinted Highlight on hand, but I also love their Beauty Butter Powder Bronzer that gives a perfect summer glow. And last but not least: a red lipstick that became my signature. I’m currently into Olivia Palermo Beauty’s Matte Lipstick in shade Runway Rouge – it’s rich in texture and lasts a day. And while we’re at it: a couple of years ago, when I was in Los Angeles, I had a brow treatment with Anastasia of Anastasia Beverly Hills and I never looked back. I use her Brow Wiz every day, it’s incredible!

What does luxury mean to you?

At Niche Beauty we don’t understand luxury in a dictionary-type of way. Luxury is to be able to only choose the best. Be it the cleanest, the most effective, the most tried, tested and approved brands and products on the market, or the latest trends you were unable to find anywhere else. I guess what I’m trying to say is that without personality, there can be no luxury. Hence I think luxury must always come from character and is, well, curated – something we take very seriously at Niche Beauty.

What does self-care mean to you?

Taking the time for things that bring me joy. Moving my body (I love Studio Lagree and am a regular at FitBodyLab in Düsseldorf, which is absolutely the best), allowing time to rest properly, treating myself to a massage and sauna in The Fontenay in Hamburg, traveling. I love to travel, there’s nothing more inspiring than a trip into the unknown.

If you could live anywhere in the world, where would you live and why? This might come as a surprise to some, but I love living in Germany. It’s logistically convenient; you can hop on a plane after work on Friday, spend the weekend in Rome and be back at your office desk by Monday morning. Still, if I didn’t live between Düsseldorf and Hamburg, I’d probably be in the South of France. Everything about their culture and lifestyle, their food, the way they approach joie de vivre, inspires me.

What is your favorite travel destination in the summer?

I love the feeling of sun on my skin so it’s always going to be the South of France. And St. Barth as well as the Maldives in the Winter (I know, I know, cliché, but it’s just so beautiful).

An ungrateful question, but what’s your one desert island product?

Goop’s Goopglow 15% Glycolic Overnight Glow Peel – it works like magic. You just wake up with a bright, even complexion. But if I’m on an actual desert island, I’ll also want to have a bikini on hand (laughs).

What’s your favorite TikTok trend?

That’s an easy one – Glazed Donut Skin, made famous by Hailey Bieber. It feels very healthy and natural. For those wondering: the trend is about applying an extra dose of moisturizer before going to bed to wake up with glassy, youthful skin. One can also apply a highlighter on the cheekbones, the bridge of the nose and the corners of the eyes for an extra boost in radiance.

What’s on your bucket list for 2023?

The obvious one: we’ll be working really hard to make Niche Beauty Nr. 1 online destination for the world’s most luxurious, wellcurated beauty products and brands. And apart from that: hiking in Bhutan in the Eastern Himalayas.

DREAM SKIN

THE GUCCI FACTOR

Get your pen and paper ready: Westman Atelier’s latest launch is bound to change the way you do skincare. Ladies and gentlemen, here comes Skin Activating Serum and yes, if you only buy one thing this season, let it be this serum. We promise you’ll never look back.

Leave it to Westman Atelier to come up with a product to take over the top and center of your shelf. The eponymous brand, created by Gucci Westman, one of the world’s most sought-after makeup artists, has taken the beauty world by storm with its signature “part skincarepart makeup” ethos. Westman Atelier’s formulas blend into the skin and are hence a fool-proof investment when on the market for that effortlessly perfect “I’m not wearing any makeup” look. This Spring, the brand’s first skincare product is bound to fill the void in your collection of uncomplicated yet highly impactful beauty essentials.

PERFECT CANVAS

The philosophy behind the Skin Activating Serum? To create a product that will work with the skin and not on top of it. To create a product that can do it all – restore, correct and protect while also providing a perfect base for makeup application.

Developed in partnership with Korea’s number one skincare scientist, Skin Activating Serum features a blend of more than 15 potent actives (which, as every skincare connoisseur will agree, is a rarity) and a Multi-Lamellar Technology system that is skin-identical and hence allowing for an easy absorption of actives exactly where and when needed.

RESTORE, CORRECT, PROTECT

The serum not only has the ability to bring the skin back to its baseline while visibly correcting the damage, uneven texture and loss of firmness, it was also designed to prevent future damage. Bonus points: its gel-like texture allows for an easy absorption – all you have to do is take two-to-three pumps of the serum and apply it onto clean, dry skin, lean back and observe a more even tone, refined texture and less redness. Pro tip? Use it in the morning before you apply the foundation for that translucent movie star glow that will get you through the summer (and beyond) with honors.

W O R T H T HE HYPE?

Social media platforms have long been determining makeup trends du jour. Sadly, not all that glitters is always gold. We put three hypes to the test.

4,2 MILLION HITS

#SUNBURNBLUSH

THE TECHNIQUE Disclaimer: this trend has nothing to do with actual sunburn, but if you want to look like you’ve been at the beach for an hour too long (sans sore, damaged skin), look no further. Grab some crème rouge, apply it generously to the cheeks and nose, and blend it in using your fingers. Also relevant: light skin tones will benefit from pink and peachy blushes, while darker skin tones can go all in on the apricot or berry tones.

ITS ORIGIN From celebrities like Emily Ratajkowski, Hailey Bieber and Billie Eilish.

THE VERDICT Sunburn blush is a safe, simple alternative to sunbathing that anyone can wear on repeat. We like!

TIKTOK TRENDS DECODED
Watch on TikTok!

#UNDERPAINTING

THE TECHNIQUE Underpainting is the new contouring method that changes the order of the product application; instead of starting with the foundation, you actually apply it at the very end. Before? Concealer, bronzer and blush that blend into the skin better if applied before the foundation, leaving you with a natural, softly contoured complexion.

ITS ORIGIN Celebrity artist Mary Philips. Gone viral after Hailey Bieber shared it on social media with millions of followers. Thanks, Hailey!

THE VERDICT After various self-tests (you're welcome), we are happy to confirm that this trend not only has the right to exist, but will also change the way you do foundation from here on out.

500 MILLION HITS

#VANILLAGIRL

THE TECHNIQUE Vanilla girls wear cream-colored clothes and sweet perfume, have perfectly highlighted blonde hair and wellgroomed skin. They apply makeup in a signature sparing way: a superthin layer of mascara, some lip gloss and foundation that lets the skin shine through. You guessed it: vanilla girls seem to be flawless.

ITS ORIGIN Swedish influencer Matilda Djerf, who – with her subtle makeup and voluminous crown of hair – daily inspires her 2,9 million Instagram followers.

THE VERDICT We have nothing against beige, nor against vanilla extracts, but don’t you think we’ve seen a sufficient amount of perfect faces and polished interior photos on social media by now? In addition, the trend primarily focuses on people with light skin and blonde hair –you will look in vain for tutorials and inspiration for darker skin types.

If you’ve ever been to Unger, Hamburg’s go-to destination for all things luxury fashion, chances are you’ve crossed paths with a man in head-to-toe Phoebe Philo’s Céline (yes, that exact same outfit you’ve had on your wishlist since forever), a dazzling Chanel handbag in hand (yes, that exact bag that’s been sold out absolutely everywhere since the day it dropped). Chances are also that the sighting made you question your entire wardrobe. Unger’s Fashion Director and the ultimate style icon, Zhu has it down to a T when it comes to investment-worthy handbags, shoes you shouldn’t be seen without and that “it” jacket that is sure to make you the belle of any ball. It turns out that Zhu’s taste is just as impeccable when it comes to beauty. Feel free to copy and paste.

What products do you use to the last drop?

The one product I can’t be without, ever, is Sunday Riley’s Good Genes – it truly does a favor to my Asian genes and leaves my skin perfectly smooth, glowing and wrinkle-free.

STYLE ICON

What was the last beauty product that blew you away?

U Beauty’s The Super Hydrator is a wonderful all-rounder and a reliable ally when in need of an instant, healthy glow. What does your evening beauty routine look like? My routine changes seasonally. Right now I swear by Tata Harper’s Regenerating Cleanser to thoroughly remove impurities and stress from the day. Afterwards I use MZ Skin’s Retinol Skin Booster to tackle the wrinkles and fine lines overnight. Then Dr. Levy Switzerland’s Booster Cream and of course Augustinus Bader’s The Eye Cream. If time allows it, I’ll finish with a generous amount of By Terry’s Baume de Rose, which is a beauty alternative to a plump goodnight kiss. What’s your daily fashion uniform?

I’m a maximalist! I like to break the rules but balance the silhouettes, adding one statement piece that is sure to stop the crowd. My style is colorful, but it’s never about more than three colors. Actually, one of the many peaks of my job is that

I’m allowed to tap into different styles every day. The only thing that stays the same is my beauty routine (laughs)!

What’s your best fashion investment?

Everyone who knows me also knows that I collect stand-out fashion pieces. That said: every piece I buy, I also consider to be an investment because fashion to me is never just about getting dressed, it’s about the art and craft behind the designs. What’s on your bucket list this summer?

A GOOD HAIR DAY

What makes Hair by Sam McKnight range one of a kind?

I want to change the way we think and feel about hair, it’s why I’ve created foolproof, easy to use products and luxurious hair care to make an instant impact.

To enable anyone to get the most out of their hair. Hair can be the ultimate mood booster and your greatest accessory, so I want to give women the power to have fun and enjoy their hair. There’s more to you that you have yet to discover.

Sam McKnight is a household name among 1st-class hair stylists and the architect of many

iconic looks of the last few decades. What's your personal favorite look?

I could never choose. I love them all.

I had my own exhibition and the release of my anthology book, Hair by Sam McKnight in 2016 and that was the first hair exhibition of its kind in the UK.

I had to choose from 40,000 images of my work and whittle it down to just 500 for the book and even less for the exhibition. So I've definitely been through them all!

I guess a style that I always love and is timeless is Cool Girl Hair. Effortlessly beautifully done-undone hair is always cool and chic.

You worked with many women the world admires. Who were you most fascinated by?

I've been so fortunate to work with the most creative people in the world, and those are the people who fascinate me the most, iconic people such as Vivienne Westwood, Karl Lagerfeld and Olivier Rousteing. Can you kindly let us in on a simple routine for effortlessly perfect summer hair?

Summer is a great time to focus on your

haircare. Give your hair some love, our Deeper Love treatment mask is an essential and a nourishing balm such as my Happy Endings is perfect to define, defrizz and defluff all hair textures.

What's your absolute desert island hair product? It would be my Modern Hairspray. It’s so incredibly versatile, I can use it on different hair types and textures, use it to protect whilst heat styling, for hold, add texture, to create sleek ponytails and chignons. It does it all!

If your #hairinspo mood board mostly includes glossy red carpet-ready manes, there’s a high chance that the man to blame is Sam McKnight. While you sadly can’t transform into Princess Diana overnight, you can certainly try to recreate her look with Hair by Sam McKnight products.

RETINOL WITHOUT THE REACTION?

Supplements made it from the health-freak aisle into the beauty and kitchen cabinets all over the world for a reason. Stressful lifestyles, diets rich in processed foods, lack of sleep and countless hours in front of the computer screen all take a toll on our overall well-being by leaving our system as well as skin depleted, fatigued and thrown out of balance. Enter: The Nue Co., an uncomplicated, innovative range of dietary supplements, well-being products and skincare, based on scientific research and made without potentially harmful toxic fillers and preservatives. This season, the brand’s portfolio just got a supercharged upgrade with Skin Filter Serum, a plant retinol that will reward you with a bright, even and glowing complexion, pirate’s promise.

SUPPLEMENTS AS A HOLISTIC ECOSYSTEM

Founded by Londoner Jules Miller after a trip to Copenhagen, The Nue Co. blends the best of natural and alternative medicine with clinically backed science, hence allowing better absorptions through the body and providing results you can actually feel. With that in mind: the combination of interhealth supplement Skin Filter (1 capsule every morning) and topical Skin Filter Serum (2 pumps every evening) not only exfoliates and reduces breakouts, it also effectively targets uneven skin texture and tone. Skin Filter Serum is a form of plant retinol, combined with key actives including HA, AHA and tiger grass and has the benefits of your usual retinol, but without the risk

of irritating the skin. The result?

A glowing, visibly brighter, plumper skin. Tests have shown an astonishing 95% smoother skin and 87% more hydrated skin in as little as 6 weeks. Now all you have to do is to get ready for everyone around you demanding to know how you got your skin so good!

A sister to the brand’s ingestible supplement, Skin Filter, this plant-derived retinol serum has the ability to deliver all the benefits of your favorite retinol, without irritating sensitive skin or disrupting your skin barrier.

LET YOUR CURLS DO THE TALKING

3 CARE RULES

WASH – BUT PROPERLY!

One common curly hair myth is that you shouldn't use shampoo to wash your hair. That's because most shampoos contain foaming agents called sulfates. These are chemicals that strip hair of its natural oils, leaving it dry, dull and frizzy. Still, it's important to thoroughly cleanse your tresses to remove buildup of product, dirt, and excess oil.

GOODBYE, HOT WATER!

Hot water dries out the curls as it opens up the outer layer of the hair and allows moisture to escape. Cold (or lukewarm) water does the opposite – it seals in the cuticle layer, protecting hair and making it shinier.

NEVER WITHOUT CONDITIONER!

Always use a conditioner that is free of silicones (these coat the hair and make it difficult for moisture to penetrate in) and rich in moisturizing ingredients.

Badria Ahmed learned from a personal (complicated) relationship with her natural hair. Londoner-by-choice decided to reverse the damage that resulted from years of chemical hair straightening and turn her brittle hair into shiny, healthy curls. In 2019, the search for the perfect routine became her mission: she founded "Holy Curls" to specifically support the variety of natural curls, dispel care myths and pre-imposed routines. The result? A sustainable hair care line, packed with natural ingredients without added chemicals. What makes curls so particular? While all hair is mostly made up of keratin, curly hair has more internal bonds and an oval (rather than round) structure under the microscope, meaning it is more sensitive to the hair care products and routines. Use a formula that’s too light and you’ll end up with straw-like and dull hair. If, on the other hand, you use products that are too heavy and dense, the curls will lose their natural bounce. When on a quest to find perfect products for your particular type of curly mane, Badria Ahmet recommends “reading” the curls to find information on their porosity, density, diameter and type, and adding Holy Curls’ formulas to your regimen. Works like magic!

No two curls are created equal. It’s safe to say they have their own personality and if there’s one universal rule that applies to their general diversity, it’s that the curlier the hair, the more care it needs.

SKIN CYCLING

While there’s nothing wrong with being skincare obsessed, I often stand in front of the shelf, asking myself what my skin truly needs that day. What products can be layered on top of each other? And how high should the dosage be? If you’re anything like me and are still on the lookout for the ultimate routine, read on. Skin Cycling was developed by US dermatologist Dr. Whitney Bowe and is based on using different night-time products in a specific order to keep the skin in balance. Think of it like an intensive workout that needs to be followed by a break to allow for muscle recovery –the skin, too, needs a rest after intense active ingredients such as BHA or retinol. But does the strategy really work?

NIGHT 1

The cycle begins with a chemical peel such as BHA or AHA, aimed at removing dead skin cells and boosting cell regeneration. My product of choice: 25% AHA + 2% BHA Exfoliant Peel by Paula's Choice, a hero product that combines both acids and is therefore particularly effective in the fight against wrinkles, dull skin and clogged pores.

NIGHT 2

Second evening: time for retinol (a form of vitamin A). I've long been a fan of the anti-aging power ingredient and usually use it several times a week in the Winter. Drunk Elephant's A-Gloei Maretinol Oil contains 0.5% retinol and is particularly gentle, making it a perfect starting point for beginners.

NIGHT 3

Today's keyword: regeneration. And by that I mean putting intensive treatments on pause and instead using gentle formulas to pamper and protect the skin’s barrier. I used The Nue Co.'s Barrier Culture Moisturizer, which uses probiotics and ceramides to strengthen the microbiome and give the skin an intense nourishing boost.

NIGHT 4

Let's recover! Here’s another night of gentle skin treatment using low-irritant calming active ingredients such as hyaluronic acid or chamomile extract.

My highlights: The Soothing Cleansing Milk by Susanne Kaufmann (I've never had softer, happier skin!) and the Hyaluronic Serum by Prof. Dr. Steinkraus, which provides lasting moisture. On the fifth evening

the cycle starts again from the beginning. By the way: on each of the four days, the face is cleansed as usual in the morning and evening and a moisturizer is used.

MY CONCLUSION

After being diligent and practicing Skin

Cycling for several weeks, my complexion looks better than ever. Cycling offers a unique opportunity to use all active ingredients while simultaneously not overdoing it. It’s true that you only need a few products used in a very deliberate way to drive amazing results – my skin finally stopped acting like a hyperactive diva and now leaves a balanced, deeply satisfied impression. 10/10 would recommend!

UP C L O S E & PE R S O NAL

Are you a morning person?

I’m an early bird – I love mornings. If I get up before my kids, I try to watch the sunrise or be mindful. I’ll then put my Face Mask on, have a coffee, go through my emails and get the day started.

I’m much more productive this time of the day.

Please fill in the blank: When I wake up in the morning, the first thing I think about is ______.

My family. Pepper (one of Dr. Barbara Sturm’s children, ed.) and I like to cuddle in the mornings and eat breakfast together before starting our day.

What skincare product would you never skip?

I love all my products and I created all of them for a reason so it’s very difficult to choose a favorite but if I had to I would say my Hyaluronic Serum and Face Cream are absolute must-haves. My Hyaluronic Serum, which I like to call the “white t-shirt” of my skincare regimen, is so fundamental to skin health and I use it daily. And my Face Cream moisturizes and nourishes the skin, protecting it from dehydration, and has powerful anti-aging and anti-inflammatory properties.

Facial cleanser of choice?

I love my Enzyme Cleanser; I use it twice a week in the shower to gently slough off dead skin cells and impurities, boost circulation and encourage skin renewal.

Breakfast of choice?

I have my own Bircher Muesli recipe that I make the night before and I’ll have that with some fresh fruit and a single latte macchiato. You can find the recipe for it on my website Drsturm.com. With breakfast I take one each of my Skin Super Anti-Aging, Skin Recovery, and Skin Protection supplements.

French women often say: find your fragrance and wear it for the next 30 years. If you could wear one scent for the rest of your life, which one would you choose?

I rarely ever wear fragrance. Sometimes I’ll spritz on a little of Byredo’s Bal D’Afrique on my t-shirt but never on my skin.

Bath or shower?

I always shower in the morning and sometimes in the early evening. I also love to take milk baths with Pepper if she lets me join her.

What's your favorite music to listen to in the morning?

I like silence if I can have it since so much is going on all of the time. I’ll also listen to Sturm Sounds; calming audio resonances I originally commissioned for my spa and boutiques which you can also find on Spotify.

What was your first beauty product obsession and why?

I grew up without any exposure to or awareness of beauty products except for the ones my grandma, who was a pharmacist, made for us. Probably the first product I created, which was my MC1 Cream, was the first beauty product I was truly obsessed with.

What do you splurge on?

I really like vintage pieces and like to wear non-mainstream stuff so I like to go to Marche Aux Puces and other flea markets and find old designer pieces like YSL and Chanel. But I also like new and elegant red-carpet pieces from designers like Galvan London and Celine.

What was the most interesting conversation you've had recently? Who was it with? A discussion about longevity with my scientist friend.

What calms you down?

I have always been inspired by Dr. Deepak Chopra and often listen to his meditations for 10 to 20 minutes to unwind or recenter. I also like to go skiing or do pilates or yoga – it’s a great and relaxing way to keep fit and flexible.

It’s not just her eponymous product line that makes Dr. Barbara Sturm an international beauty icon, it’s her lifestyle choices, routines and – perhaps most importantly – her personality as well. Enjoy.

FOR SKINCARE ADDICTS

We’re the first to admit: it’s easy to get lost in the jungle of skincare ingredients. With that in mind we developed a glossary (including expert tips by Michael Mayer) to help you navigate the beauty world with ease. Thank us later!

RETINOL

The ultimate anti-aging ingredient! A form of vitamin A stimulates collagen and elastin production, which makes the skin look younger and its texture more even. “Under 30” skin will benefit from fewer blemishes, scars or sun damage. Start at a dosage of 0.1 or 0.3 percent and increase as your skin gets used to the effects.

MUST-KNOW INGREDIENTS
“I RECOMMEND NIACINAMIDE TO ANYONE WHO WANTS A MORE EVEN SKIN TONE. IT WORKS!”

NIACINAMIDE CBD

The water-soluble form of vitamin B3 is known for its ability to interact with cells, which makes it effective against a whole range of skin problems: acne, hyperpigmentation, reduced skin elasticity, dryness, large pores or even redness. A real talent that is suitable for all skin types.

Allies Of Skin / Prebiotics & Niacinamide Pore Refining Booster / € 78,–Paula's Choice / 10% Niacinamide Booster / € 52,–Dr. Barbara Sturm / The Better B Niacinamide Serum / Clean Beauty / € 125,–

This one won’t make you high, but it will make you glowy: we're talking about cannabidiol, or CBD in short. One of the benefits of CBD is that it has calming properties. It regulates and soothes the skin, helping to reduce redness and irritation. Due to its anti-inflammatory and sebum-reducing effect, CBD is made to settle impure and acne-prone skin.

SQUALANE

Squalane is a wonderful all-purpose beauty weapon: it is similar to our skin's natural oils and helps to strengthen the skin barrier. It can be used on all skin types due to its light texture, plus it’s non-comedogenic, meaning it won't clog pores, making it ideal for oily and acne-prone skin.

HYALURONIC ACID

The secret to plump, baby-soft skin? Your natural hyaluronic acid content – which unfortunately decreases by 1% annually from the age of 25. Hyaluronic acid improves skin elasticity by supporting epidermal cells. Its ability to hold up to 1000 times its own weight in water increases the skin's moisture levels and keeps it looking fresh.

“THE BEST THING ABOUT HYALURONIC ACID IS THAT IT CAN BE USED ON ANY SKIN TYPE, ANY SKIN CONDITION, AND ANY TIME OF THE YEAR.”
MICHAEL MAYER, MAKE UP ARTIST & INDUSTRY EXPERT

It’s no secret that trapped old skin cells lead to pimples and redness. Not only can salicylic acid (also known as BHA, or beta-hydroxy acid) help remove them, BHA also offers soothing, anti-inflammatory properties, making it an ideal ally in the fight against breakouts and acne.

VITAMIN C

Be it in a serum, mask or cream: no other active ingredient conjures up a more beautiful glow than vitamin C. The ultra-strong antioxidant, which keeps free radicals at bay, helps with skin problems such as hyperpigmentation and bumps, boosts collagen synthesis and protects the skin from irritation, inflammation and environmental pollution. Start at a concentration of 5 to 10% and gradually increase up to 20%.

toner and lots of serum. At the moment I am using Tata Harper’s Rejuvenating Serum, my skin absorbs it straight away. If I’m lucky, my kids sleep long enough, so I can really take care of my own needs before I start making a nice breakfast for them. I love it when I am all glowed up and the house smells like fresh coffee and buns. That’s my kind of morning!

On what she’s most proud of: Even though I love my career and love to create makeup looks, I am so happy that I didn’t miss the opportunity of being a mum. And then I’m super proud of launching my own brand LONI BAUR – the products just make everyone’s makeup routine so much simpler!

What is your ultimate desert island product and why?

I am totally obsessed with my Highlighter Stick 02 from the GET REDDY palette. It just makes the skin look so good, plus you can apply it with your fingers. If there is nothing else around, I’ll also use it on my eyelids and lips. It’s such a must-have product, I swear! On things that are always in her makeup bag: Augustinus Bader The Rich Cream, I really use it all the time – it’s also the best to put underneath makeup. Also: I never leave the house without my favorite mascara in the world, which is the Lash 02 Volume Mascara from my collection. You should try it.

On her favorite way to start the day: My morning ritual starts with a 10 minute affirmation meditation, which always lifts me up and helps me focus. If I don’t have to rush, I like to spend a generous amount of time on my skincare routine after the shower: a soft peeling, a light

BEST SPA IN TOWN

Has big city life been stressing you out? Before you book a trip to an ashram in India, may we suggest an alternative with the same relaxing effect? It’s called the spa at The Fontenay, Hamburg’s number one luxury hotel, and all you really have to do to access self-care deluxe is press the elevator button for the 6th floor.

Here, above the rooftops of Hamburg, you enter a spa that extends over 1.000 square meters and welcomes you with cozy warmth and calming silence, a pleasant contrast to the buzzy real life below. In addition to the spectacular panoramic view of the Alster lake, you will also find relaxation areas, beautifully designed loungers that we promise will give you the feeling of floating on clouds, and a Finnish sauna. Our pro-tip: don't miss out on the aromatic 45-degree quartzite steam bath. Not only will it help pamper your skin, you will also notice negative thoughts vanishing into thin air. Next on? A luxurious, deeply nourishing treatment. Amethyst Bio-Regenerative Facial, Marine Mineral Facial or Body

Salt Therapy will leave your skin (and soul) recharged. As a cherry on top it’s worth mentioning that The Fontenay’s wellness oasis also offers high-class beauty products to deliver supercharged results.

And while you’re at it, we highly encourage you to take a dip in the 20-meter indoor and outdoor pool, heated up to the pleasant 30 degrees. And yes, the exact point where the infinity pool meets the Alster in the distance could easily trick you into thinking you’re somewhere very, very far away. You have our word: there’s nothing that a little luxurious rest and reset can’t fix.

SKIN JUICE

What’s better than a green juice? A green juice, packed in a serum, we say. Kiss your dry, dull complexion goodbye –Honest Beauty’s latest launch is a daily vitamin kick your skin needs to look extra-bouncy and glowing.

Daily Green Juice Antioxidant Super Serum is pretty much what its name suggests: a daily dose of antioxidants, courtesy of carrot-, kale- and lemon extracts as well as goji peptidoglycans, ergothioneine mushroom complex, green tea oil and more. With added niacinamide, hyaluronic acid and apple extract the formula not only provides a smoother and softer skin, but also improves redness and quenches the thirsty feeling in as little as 7 days.

Jessica Alba started Honest Beauty with an idea of bridging clean ingredients with maximum efficacy: “Honest Beauty is committed to inspiring everyone to love living consciously. When I started Honest Beauty, it was critical for me to create a line of clean makeup and skincare products that truly performed. Using clean ingredients is extremely important, but the products must work –efficacy is key. At Honest Beauty we believe that healthy skin starts with an effective skin care routine that delivers results, and makeup products that have incredible payoff with skin-care benefits. Since day one, we have made conscious decisions when it comes to everything we produce, from our good-for-you skincare to our high-performing makeup and carefully selected packaging.” With superb online reviews, Daily Green Juice Antioxidant Super Serum is on a fast-track to become the brand’s latest hero product: in a consumer study of 35 women over 1 week of use, 94% agreed their skin felt and looked healthier and 91% agreed their skin looked brighter, more radiant and luminous.

DON’T BE SHY!

Dr. Vivien Karl has been on a clear mission since she founded her line of intimate care products in 2021: bring intimate health (and through it female well-being) from the shadow into the light. Aiming at accompanying women through the various phases of life, the range is developed for – but by no means limited to – more than 14 million of women who in Germany alone suffer from vaginal dryness. The Cologne-based pharmacist sees intimate hygiene as a no-brainer: if the skin “down there” gets stressed, it might lead to fungal and bladder infections and the best way to heal it is by preventing it.

The new pharmacy line is technically skincare, but since the intimate area significantly differs from the rest of the body skin, so do the requirements. Dr. Vivien Karl’s formulas are rooted in science, always free of hormones and fragrances and enriched exclusively with selected (natural) high-quality ingredients. And that, of course, has an effect – loyal customers report it having a transformative upshoot on their sex lives as well. With that in mind: take care!

If you’re one to shyly look away the moment you hear the words “intimate care”, we beg you to reconsider. While the topic might not yet be a regular when it comes to top shelf discussions, Dr. Vivien Karl is here to prove hygiene “down there” can be sexy and chic, too.

Taking boxing, circuit training, movement, pilates and barre on to a new level by combining it with light, sound and scent to stimulate the brain, the studio’s offering was developed on the principles of multisensory experience, based on neuro-athletic training and sports science. Results? Improved productivity, better sleep, supercharged physical and mental wellbeing – not to mention a toned, lean body as a welcome cherry on top.

REGENERATION IS KEY – Regeneration should always be a crucial aspect of every routine as it allows the body to recover from physical exertion and prepare for future performances, leading to improved overall health and wellbeing. Hagius’ Co-Founder Timothy Hagius recommends Susanne Kaufmann’s Bath for the Senses: it does not only improve cardiovascular health but also reduces muscle soreness and accelerates recovery after exercise. Furthermore, taking baths regularly can boost the immune system and enhance mental wellness.

STRETCH SUPPLY – Second, make sure to include stretching into your sports routine. It increases flexibility, reduces muscle tightness and improves ranges of motion, leading to better performance and less risk of injury.

MENTAL FITNESS – Finally, consider incorporating meditation into your routine. It is a fool-proof way to reduce stress, improve focus and concentration, and enhance overall vibrancy. It also leads to better sleep, which is crucial for recovery and a sustainably enjoyable sports routine. Another useful tip: consider joining My INNER HEALTH Club for extra how-to’s on nurturing a healthy relationship with yourself.

SWITCH TO CLEAN

What’s good for the planet and good for the skin is good enough for us, we say. At Niche Beauty, we stand behind extraordinary products with extraordinary effects. While this doesn’t always mean clean beauty is the answer to every skin concern, we’ll say it loud and clear: we do love a virtuous no-nasties product.

TAKE THE SWITCH

You know that tiny “clean” button at the top of the categories on our website? Turns out it’s magic. Push the button to only shop clean beauty, a custom-made (And rather strict!) category, defined by the ingredients you won’t find in the products with the CLEAN icon: BHA (butylated hydroxyanisole), BHT (butylated hydroxytoluene), chemical sunscreens, EDTA, ethanolamines, ethoxylated ingredients (Ceteareth-20, emulsifying wax, PEGS, polysorbate-20, polysorbate-40, steareth-20, sulfates), formaldehyde, methylchloroisothiazolinone and methylisothiazolinone, methylcellulose or 2methoxyethanol, nitro- and polycyclic musk, parabens, petrolatum and paraffin, phthalates, resorcinol, silicones, animal by-products, toluene, triclosan and triclocarban. With a generational shift towards more conscious consumption comes a heightened awareness for the quality of the products we put on our skin, too. Don’t get us wrong: clean is not always better, but it is an important step towards less nasty ingredients and more simplicity. And really, is there anything more luxurious than high-quality simplicity?

ILES FORMULA

High Performance Finishing Serum / € 54,–

Hand-picked, custom blended ingredients including vitamins, nut oils, silk,

and ceramide, feed hair with nothing but goodness without ever weighing it down. It helps repair split ends while strengthening the hair and preventing color fade.

Cream Cleanser is an effective body wash that cleanses without removing the skin’s natural protective barrier, while simultaneously adding antioxidants and moisturizing the skin.

LANOLIPS

101 Ointment / € 14,50

Revolutionary (yes, really) clean formula that instantly relieves dry lips, elbows and super dry patches with its proprietary blend of moisture-locking nourishing ingredients.

MALIN + GOETZ

Eucalyptus Deodorant / € 24,–

The bestselling, number 1 natural deodorant is synthesized with refreshing eucalyptus oil and odor-neutralizing citronellyl for all day effectiveness.

THIS PLACE

MEET AND TREAT!

We live in an era of innovative treatment tools that promise exceptional beauty results. If you’re curious and down to experiment, you came to the right place. Dr. med. Eveline Urselmann, specialist in aesthetic medicine, gives the scoops on procedures that top the charts and suggests reliable at-home alternatives in case you can’t make it to the specialist of your choice.

ONE FOR ALL 1.

2.

MICRO CURRENT

“For visibly reduced wrinkles and scars I like to recommend an in-office combination of fractional laser and hyaluron skin booster. This laser works in depth and does not damage the skin surface, but is instead used to carefully heat the skin tissue and hence stimulate collagen production.”

AT HOME

Nuface / Mini Facial Toning Device / Exclusive / € 230,–

The 5-minute anti-aging boost: one handy and powerful device, all the benefits of a microcurrent treatment. For fast and visible results.

TOOLS

3.

ULTRASOUND

“Ultrasound devices are mainly used for anti-aging these days. The Ultherapy treatment, for example, is proven to deliver results via micro-focused ultrasound and is a great non-invasive method to lift the neck, chin and brows as well as to improve wrinkles on the upper chest.”

AT HOME

Sarah Chapman / Pro Pore Refiner / Exclusive / € 182,–Clear thing: pore cleansing based on ultrasound as if done by a professional. For an immediately clearer, more even complexion.

LED 4.

“Red light is used for skin rejuvenation, while blue light supports acne therapy. In-office we often combine light therapy with other procedures – it is a great addition to a jet peel or microneedling to optimize results.”

AT HOME

Déesse Pro / Express Led Mask / Exclusive / € 350,–20 years of expertise have gone into this high-tech LED silicone mask, which uses two different wavelengths to visibly smooth the skin.

CRYOTHERAPY 5.

“A good example would be cryolipolysis. This noninvasive procedure is used to reduce fat cells by coolingand consequently melting them away. It is particularly effective on areas such as the hips, abdomen or double chin.”

AT HOME

Nazan Schnapp / Signature Cryo Facial Tool Set / Clean Beauty / € 189,–They not only look nice, they’re also a power couple for cryotherapy – perfect for facial massage and to give the complexion the ultimate radiance.

There’s a special place in the world of luxury beauty, exclusively dedicated to the power of natural ingredients, tradition, local harvesting methods and scientific production. Brands that take the power of plants and transform it into innovative yet super effective formulas are here to give you a simple message: nature knows best. We hereby give you permission to discover (and indulge in) Prof. Dr. Steinkraus, MACRENE ACTIVES, Tata Harper, Gisou and Furtuna Skin.

GISOU

Honey Infused Hair Oil / € 77,–An exclusive hair oil enriched with honey from the Mirsalehi Bee Garden, formulated to rebuild and repair the hair from the core, leaving it moisturized, shiny and rejuvenated.

PROF. DR. STEINKRAUS TATA HARPER

Vita Liberata / Untinted Fabulous Gradual Tanning Lotion / € 22,–

There’s a reason for Vita Liberata’s cult brand status. This lotion is perfect for fool-proof people like me –that is, those who tend to do self-tan in a sloppy hurry. It has all the benefits of a gentle, light faux tan – it soaks in quickly, leaves zero (and I mean zero!) dark patches and leaves you with a hypernatural, pro-level tan by the morning.

WHO’S AFRAID OF THE SELF-TAN?

Don’t be. We rolled up our sleeves (quite literally) and tested the best products for a healthy, even tan. Here’s what we found.

Hello Sunday / The Self Tan One – Sun-Kissed Drops / € 24,–Perfect for everyone who’s new to self-tan. I took a leap of faith for the first time and used faux tan on my face. I was not disappointed. The drops mix well with my moisturizer and give a light glow. I’m addicted!

SUSANNE, CREATIVE DIRECTOR

James Read / H2o Tan Mist / € 29,–

A game-changer. I never tried self-tan less complicated than this. One pump: healthy glow. Two pumps: summer bronze. Three pumps: holidays in St. Tropez tan. Ever since I started using this Tan Mist, I’ve stopped using foundation, it’s that good!

Oskia / Adaptive Tan Drops / € 89,–

This 100% natural self-tan is my go-to before the warm season kicks in! I use it in my daily moisturizer before bedtime; in the Spring I add just a few drops for a light, sun-kissed look and in the Summer I add a few more for a deeper tan. It smells great and gives me a healthy glow overnight!

POWDER ROOM DIARIES

Sue Giers is the founder of SoSUE, a brand built on uncomplicated, chic, wearable yet timeless fashion essentials that work with everything from jeans to your favorite statement pair of heels. Read on for everything she loves IRL, from the one-and-done cleanser to her ride-or-die moisturizer.

Favorite bronzer for the summer?

Nars’ Bronzing Powder (in shade Laguna) is a fast track to that Ibiza-like glow. Its shade is perfect for my skin that has a slight olive undertone, plus it really brings out the green in my eyes. A great addition? Westman Atelier’s Face Trace Contour Stick in Biscuit for a little contour just under the cheekbones and along the jawline.

A can’t-do-without cleanser?

UBeauty’s The Mantle Skin Conditioning Wash – it’s super luxurious and overall amazing due to its rich texture that doesn’t strip the skin while thoroughly removing makeup and impurities. What’s always in your suitcase?

Westman Atelier’s mascara – not only is

it an amazing product, its packaging is on point, too. I smile everytime I see this golden mascara in my bag. I also love the brand’s Baby Cheeks Blush Stick in Chouchette – it comes in a perfect rosy shade and gives my cheeks just a tiny sunkissed touch. I’m obsessed!

Signature scent?

I used to love Le Labo’s perfumes, but now I like to browse small perfumeries for more individual fragrances, which is especially the case when I’m traveling. I also like to mix and layer different scents or body oils on top of each other. My latest discoveries are Mavemade’s fragrances, in particular Glück, Haft and Sucht. So good.
