One of the most skin-comforting cleansers we’ve come across. The foam removes dirt, makeup and pollution, and gently exfoliates with tamarind pulp extract, an AHA. It’s soap-and SLS-free; instead, it uses organic saponaria extract, a naturally lathering plant. Skin feels clean and so soft; we love the uplifting scent too.

Eyeshadow palettes, with their colours and finishes, can be intimidating. But we’re in love with this limited edition pearl-inspired one (the copper-aubergine is our current fave). The colours go on sheer and pretty, and are mistake-proof. For a full look, layer the shades from darkest to lightest on the eyelids.

The liquid foundation gives medium-to-full coverage, while nourishing and protecting skin with hyaluronic acid, noni fruit extract and natural oils. It creates a radiant surface that softly reflects light, so the skin looks flawless and dewy.

Our dehydrated skin just glows when we use it – and so should yours. The plum-based (three types, all vitamin C-rich) formula also contains hyaluronic acid to lock in moisture. It’s so lightweight that it’s easy to layer on other skincare after. Our fave way to use it is as a mid-afternoon hydration boost.

When it comes to perfecting your skincare routine, cleansing is an essential step towards healthier-looking skin. The dirty truth is that most cleansers on the market contain synthetic ingredients and harsh irritants derived from petrochemicals and have non-sustainable packaging – bad for the skin, bad for the environment.
