Radical sun protection

Environ’s Rad Shield® Mineral Sunscreen is based on the same scientific principles of the brand’s sun care philosophy but offers a new contemporary sunscreen format comparatively better suited to oilier skin types, or ‘chemical-phobes’. Powerful physical reflectors (zinc and titanium) and antioxidants provide broad-spectrum UVA, UVB and IR defence. 011 262 0264 LEMI has launched Spa Shield, specifically designed to guarantee the necessary protection for both therapists and customers during any type of facial treatment. Its thermoformed plexiglass structure works as a real barrier against potential contamination. The spa shield has a metal base with rubber wheels and brake, and is easily adapted to any spa table.

Soft focus effect

The Soft Focus Pore Refining Cream from Team Dr. Joseph’s Skin Care Plus range is a mattifying and pore refining product for oily skin that includes a filler effect for wrinkles. Intensely moisturising, it covers skin blemishes and gives a soft focus effect for smooth and natural looking skin. It combines the benefits of make-up and skincare in one formula.

Manly scent

diMANzi for men has been created by Di Thompson in the tradition of fine French fragrance using selected essential oils from the world’s perfume capital, Grasse. Zesty citrus top notes come from bergamot and lemon, while rosemary provides an aromatic, woody and earthy accord. The patchouli and vanilla base adds a warm, sensual and spicy appeal. 011 455 4747
