Although I’m fortunate to get to experience numerous skincare and makeup items when I work at B.C., I have a few of my top beauty products that I can’t do without. For this blog, I chose to ask my coworkers to learn what their latest cosmetics and skincare trends are. We’ve got our opinions of the top beauty products that were released this year and also the ones that we’ve revisited and fallen over.
Phytomer Hydra Continue Radiance Energising Cream
“There are some moisturisers that I adore and have had in my bag of beauty products for quite a while and this is one that I just can’t keep my hands off of right now. It’s a lightweight moisturiser, but it seems to give my thirsty, dull skin the perfect amount of moisture it requires. I also like how it not only moisturizes my skin but also makes it feel relaxed and calm as well. Furthermore, after each use, my skin is just feeling and looking fresh and hydrated, but also appears radiant as well! It’s also packed with marine and vitamin-rich ingredients. Outstanding stuff!” Jo Boyden, Marketing, PR & Content Manager
ELES Luminous Defence Brightening Day Protection 50+
“If you’re concerned about aging There are two things that you must include in your daily skincare routine – SPF as well as Retinol. In reality, if you don’t apply SPF using anti-ageing products, it is unproductive! It’s because U.V. radiation can cause skin damage, premature aging and, as we know, increases the chance of developing skin cancer. Finding a sunscreen with an SPF of high that we enjoy and feel comfortable using daily can be difficult as sunscreens can be heavy and greasy, and their smell could be unpleasant, and it’s the very last thing that you need to do is apply an oily substance on your face! When we introduced ELES the Luminous Defence brightening day Defense, I was certain I had found my favorite. I apply it each morning without fail, all the time all year. It’s light and with great ingredients that do not just safeguard my skin, but can also help stop hyper-pigmentation and drooping too. It adds a bit of glow, which is an added bonus.” Liane Scior, Director of Education & Marketing
Medicalia Retinol Concentrate
“This is my second choice currently. I put it on under my moisturizer and then apply it before going to bed. It’s a clinically tested blend of peptides, antioxidants, and Retinol, which help you sleep so that you awake to the most beautiful skin you’ve seen. The more I use it, the more soft and young my skin appears. I also have observed a significant reduction in my skin’s pigmentation as well as wrinkles and lines. It’s one of the products that even skin experts and skin skeptics will say is worth the cost.
I strongly recommend using it together in conjunction with Medicalia’s Retinol as well as the ‘C’ care cream.” Liane Scior, Director of Education & Marketing
ELES Age Defying B.B. Cream 30
“I am a huge fan of the convenience of this product and I wear it when I’m at work while at home, or going out. It’s my primer, sunblock and foundation all in one. because it’s lightweight and smooth on application it’s hard to believe you’re wearing any makeup! I also love that it’s formulated with anti-aging and skin-nourishing ingredients, and is doing wonders for my skin instead of to covering it up! If you’re in search of multi-purpose makeup that will leave your skin looking radiant and flawless (with slight matte finishes) this might be your go-to product.” May Scior, Operations Assistant
Phytomer Rosee Soin Radiance Replenishing Oil
“This oil is incredible and is a perfect treat for your skin after a long day. It’s an extremely moisturizing yet dry oil that gets absorbed into my skin in a short time, giving a gorgeous silky texture without leaving the greasy residues that many night oils leave behind. It’s also a delight because of its divine, gentle rose scent. Each night I apply it, it takes me into a completely relaxed state, and the next day I awake to brighter, glowing, smoother, and more rejuvenated skin. There’s no way to tell an exaggeration.
If you’re suffering from dull, dry, or dehydrated skin, I can’t recommend this product any more strongly!” Taryn Gray, Brand Coordinator
Micro Emulsion Massage Oil Anti-Stress
“This is my go-to for winter that I’ve been using for a long time. Now that the temperatures are decreasing, I’ve pulled it out of the cupboard and back into my routine. I use it for an oil or body cream that is nourishing, especially in hot showers because it softens and hydrates my skin. Then, when I have the time I can pour it into the bath for a rejuvenating milk bath, in order to release the tension and fatigue I’ve built up. It’s also the ideal solution to apply during the pregnancy since it stopped stretchmarks from developing! While the oil is a natural product, it isn’t greasy and the smell is as if you’ve stepped into the spa. Bliss.” Kellie Deveney, International Educator and Business Development Manager
CleanRefresh Foaming Oil Cleanser
“We all know that it’s crucial to clean our skin each day. I’ve used several cleansers over the years. However, this one is the best cleanser I’ve ever tried.
It’s gel-like in texture; however, once you add water, it foams and looks gorgeous on my face. This is something I adore because it makes me feel like it’s actually purifying my skin and taking away the day’s dirt and makeup. Additionally, it leaves my skin feeling fresh, smooth, and not dry (which some foaming cleansers can be). Additionally, since I’ve been using this product, my skin has become softer and free of blemishes.” Elaine Palapag, Social Media Co-ordinator
Pevonia Hyaluronic Acid Hydra Mist
“I absolutely this mist! I was fortunate enough to test it prior to the launch in B.C., and it’s now an essential part of my daily routine of skincare. I’ve never been a fan of mists for my face, but this one is a step above the level. I apply it first thing each morning in order to revive my face and replenish any moisture lost over the night, and then after I’ve put on my makeup, as it’s a great setting spray. I spray it all over my skin throughout the day if my skin needs a boost. I believe it’s crucial when I’m at the workplace with the heat pumping after work and at night after I’ve applied my moisturizer and serum to complete the perfect evening routine. It’s not just making my skin feel extremely soft and moist, but it also awakens my senses too.
N.B. It’s been formulated using not just Hyaluronic Acid but also an extremely calming blend of Chamomile, Aloe, Green Tea, and essential oils that smell aromatic. It makes this potent product suitable for all types of skin, particularly irritated, dehydrated, and aging faces!” Taryn Gray, Brand Coordinator
Phytomer Night Recharge Youth-Enhancing Cream
“I love night creams, the thicker and more silky the better. And having tried a variety of night creams throughout my years in the field I can say that this is one of the top night creams for any routine for skin care, absolutely (big choice, I am aware of!) Its texture is silky and it literally absorbs into the skin when you apply it and wrap it in and hydrating (so my skin reaps everything that comes from the cream’s marine botanicals as I’m asleep!) When I wake up, my skin looks radiant and as smooth as baby’s bottom! OBSESSED.” Jo Boyden, Marketing, PR & Content Manager
